is made to blast Damascus instead? Will the fallout affect Israel?

Israel is not running around saying its main objective in life is to wipe Iran off the map. The leadership of Iran is a nutcase. NNTP or not, if we allow them to acquire nuclear weapons, we sign the death warrant of millions of people. Even if they don't actually send a nuke to Israel (which would likely kill more moslems than Jews due to the nuclear fallout of Syria and elsewhere), the WMD will eventually end up in the hands of some other nutcase terrorist who cannot be appeased. We are nuts if we allow this to happen. Treaty or not. It's a different world now.

ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS WHICH KIND IS GOING TO BE DROPPED ON THE IRANIAN HITLER. ALL ARE FINE WITH ME. BOMBS AWAY!

Blatent double standard, lets propose that the US or israel destroy all its nuclear weapons and capabilities, then maybe Iran may reconsider. No country with nuclear energy or weapons has any right to interfere with a soverign countries right to aquire the very thing they have. If the US or the united states of israel is willing to start a war, then they will both pay a heavy price, but their is nothing more the US wants but to take over Iran as it did with Iraq, in order to secure its oil needs for this century. Truth Hurts

Right on, dude! Withdrawing from the NNPT _would_ make Iran just like Israel...except that Iran would still be repressive, fascist, anti-democratic, belligerent, totalitarian, genocidal, and aggressive, while Israel would still be free, democratic, tolerant, and defensively armed. They would be just like twins! Here's the deal, jack: Iran is like a shark: out to destroy, kill, and devour, always seeking blood. Israel is like a desert cactus: designed to protect the lush treasures within, but harmless if you leave it alone. Even if the shark grows thorns, it will not become a cactus: it will still be a shark, and it will eat you even if you leave it alone.

Israeli defenders are saying that despite Iran being fully within its rights as a NNPT signatory state to enrich Uranium for civilian purposes that this should be taken away from them because they threaten israel. Ummm I'm sorry I dont see that exclusion in the NNPT anywhere. Look at what you just did to the civilians in lebanon, look at what you do to palestinians every day. And you dont threaten Syria? You cry about UNSCR1559 and 1701 and you ignore the root cause of all this bloodshed which is UNSCR242 and the hundreds of other UNSCR's directed at Israel Listen, the whole world is rapidly tiring of israelis whining and crying wolf. When you look at what you do, we all know who the big bad wolf is. its YOU. the world has had enough of this BS Checklist: Religious fanatics: Check Nuclear weapons: Check THreaten neighbors: Check Attack neighbors: Check Gross violations of human rights : CHeck

Ummm where have you been the past 45 days? Israel not only threatened to wipe out the country they DID it.

All the wishing in the world and all the smokescreen and offers of serious negotiations won't detract from the conclusion that Iran in not clearly and unambiguously answering agreement to suspend enrichment has no intention to do so. If the Russians and the Chinese and possibly Europeans want to delude or self decieve that the Iranian intentions are anything else than rejection of the IAEA call to stop enrichment then they will be doing that for their own narrow political motives. Iranian behaviour in all their statements and actions by Ahmadinejad and Khameini on many occasions clearly identifies Iranian intention to carry on enrichment. Iranian military execises and military tests of its missiles clearly identify its weapons develoipment programme. Its political and military hardware and technological support for Hezbollah clearly identify its foreign policy intentions, soi what are the five plus one prevaricating over other than an exercise in self deception. Early imposition of sanctions now is in fact the gentlest response. Security Council Sanctions or other actions later will undoubtedly have to be harsher and more abrupt. The time for serious negotiations expired in the last two years or more. Conciliatory noises will always seek to flatter and deceive.

To believe Iran will be prevented from having nuclear warheads by the end of the decade is to believe Israel has NO right to exist, and how galactically stupid is that? "Bomb Iran into submission"? You mean just like Israel surrendered unconditionally to Hizbullah? Oh, everthing is crystal clear now. Hahahahahahahahaha... Hahahahahahahahahah... Ooh my ribs, they're bustin' up, ooh mama!

For your information no one knows whether Israel HAS nuclear weapons. If it does, no one ever heard about them, so there is no need to be jumpy about it. No one in this world (including Islamic countries) has ever been threatened by Israeli "nuclear" bombs unlike Iran, whose ayatollahs and Hitlerdinajaad want Israel wiped off the planet Earth. By the way, by making use of their future nuclear weapons. Now, Jackie boy, or whoever you are, this is why half of the civilized world are jumping up and down with worry and fright knowing that Iran's nuclear bombs are a bleak prospect for both Israel and the rest of the world. So, get out of our face and start thinking right if you really want a life !

The iranian playing wuth the whole world like parents with todlers. In the meantime they are advanving ahead with the nuclear program. Wake up before is to late !!!!!

To state that vast nautral resources such as oil and gas compensate and recuse one's nation from acquiring nuclear technology in this day and age is the stuff of abominable stupidity. Especially when such resources are perishable Einstein. You wanna keep the eastern masses within the confines of the stone age, don't ya Chalrie boy? And before you broach human rights vis a vis Iran, go read yesterday's Human Rights Watch report on your darling whom you're an apologist for. Better yet, look within ostrich Charles, can you say Iraq war crimes? Can you say Guantanamo? Can you say Abou Garib? Can you say Haditha and Ahmadia? Marines?rape? Murder and incineration? You think you've the upper moral ground you sanctimonious weasel of an ostrich Charles? This board is on to the likes of you, so en garde Charlie.

Get your ass to Tehran NOW!! Herr Hitler NEEDS YOU!

What a load of waffle. I tell YOU. What Bush wants will be what YOU NEED one day. You're just too stupid to realise it.

Your contribution is as good as the nice quotation : « A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds. » (Ralph Waldo Emerson). Thank you, Charles. Let's hope a way to WW3 is not being created. « Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. » 1 Corinthians 13, 4-7 (Paul's first Epistle to Corinthians). What could endanger our earth more than insane, murderous stubbornness ? Should we not refrain from opening Pandora's box ? Do we have no means, not a capacity for affecting Iran's balance ? Has every effort been made to oblige Iran to come to the negotiation table ? Bombing what ? Do we know how Russia and China would react ? I personally stand in fear of most dreadful chain reactions.

Its a fair comparison and trade off, but with a name like da sphincter it sure explains alot, your a blow ass so squeez that out of your tight ass. TRUTH HURTS

You still deny that Iran has openly said it wants to "wipe Israel off the map". Why do you people always fail to mention this? Oh, I know denying reality and truth!!! What we learned from WW2, is that people like Hitler and Ahmedinejad need to be stopped, and guess what? we're goona stopr this mad idiot from destroying not only Israel, but Iran as well. Does that truth hurt you a little???

Name one good thing Iran has brought to the world? What great technology has it invented? What great cure/medicine was developed in Iran, middle eastern country. Bottom line is Irans lives in the stone age and can't get itself out. So, instead of trying to enter the civilized world, it wants to acquire nukes so it can bomb eveyone else back to the stone age. That is reason enough to not allow them to get the technology, regardless of what you think is their "right". If they want to live in the middle ages, let 'em, I don't care. Personally, I like the comforts of the 21 century.

Iran passed the intemedation age, the minute you start begging for Saddam Hussein servival, and their 8 years of war taught them alot, any one who thinks this is gonna be a walk in the park, better wake up and smell the Hummus, Israel couldn't stand 33 days aginst Hozballah, let alone the Iranian wrath, when it start falling on every inch, evey city, every corner, every sinougage, can you take this heat? SHUT UP then, and stop talking to me about, bombing and destroying, you have destroyed enough already, and lost the latest war in Lebanon, continue with your b@#4 sh#$ rehotric against Iran, and attake them, and the Iranian, will show you, were it use to be Tel Aviv,
