4. The EVER best thing!
kais ,   Qatar   (11.04.06)
Through the spread of Nuclear bombs in the ME we can finaly have another cold war and that means that the Arab Israeli conflict will only be a war of words instead of guns. In case the wods turn into ACTION then the problem of the ME will also be solved coz there won't be any Israeli or ME Arab left to breathe in this place. Its either going to be PEACE or TOTAL DESTRUCTION!

Israel gave the chance to all the Arabs to start such programms and their reason is why Israel and the others not .... logic ...

silvio ,   italy   (11.04.06)

toni ,   sab me   (11.04.06)
totally agree things are looking up from down here
15. how about israel's 350 nukes? when will the UN take action
fadi ,   lebanon   (11.04.06)
about that .. if not the UN the european union should do that as israel is a threat to european securtiy
16. USA already published NUKE BOMB COOKBOOK to HELP TERORISTS
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (11.04.06)
USA already published and then closed a Web description, which is called a cookbook for nuke bombs. I think in USA zionists are paving the way nuking USA, and if any terrorists make up a nuke and bomb US according to US cookbook published it will be so because Zionists prepared all this conspiracy. But possibly Next time they will not need to come pizza restaurants to kill Israilis. However Zionist does not take account anything other than increase tensions between US and Arabs. Their plans are as fool and as failable as in Lebonan.
17. Here's a thought...
(11.04.06)
Instead of creating an arms race, the Arab states unify with the EU, USA, Russia and China against Iran's scheme. If the entire world puts enough pressure on Iran, they will have no choice but to cooperate.
18. Kais from Qatar
Kais-buster ,   USA   (11.04.06)
The last part of your comment was really a great solution, dumbass. Don't YOU live in the Middle East, Mr. Future French Fry? You make Borat look like a Rhodes Scholar. unbelievable stupidity!
19. #4, Kais, You make a valid point. It's either
Allan ,   US   (11.04.06)
MAD or Detante. Put your glow suit on, my friend, because I'm affraid we're in for it. I hate to be pessimistic, but unless cooler heads prevail the ME will turn into one big sheet of glass.
20. #13 the new middle east of america is a real fantasy
Mehmet ,   Turkey   (11.04.06)
21. #16 Since when has Israel come out with...
Adam ,   Manchester   (11.04.06)
....rhetoric that its purported nuclear capability would be used against Iran, Iraq, Saudi or anyone else....how is it a threat to the Europe when most of Europe is against Iran's development but respects Israel's. You so dont understand the issues/facts. The problem with muslims/arab states having weapons is that they are practically ALL unstable, undemocratic, intolerant (all worse human rights records than Israel agaisnt women and their people in general) and also want a totally Islamic World never mind Israel, Middle East... If Israel was destroyed, G-d forbid, then you would want Spain next as it was Muslim before 1492 then it would be parts of France, UK etc, anywhere that there is a lot of Muslims! LIke in Kosovo.
22. Need to make Nukes Public as deterance
Sam Weinstein ,   USA   (11.04.06)
Israel Needs to make Nukes Public as deterance both against countries that wants Israel destroyed physically like Iran and others and against countries that may want to place a stranglehold on Israel's economy in the future to force Israel into unrealistic concessions like the EU
23. #4 Kais
Sam Weinstein ,   USA   (11.04.06)
To some degree you are right MAD Mutual Assured Destruction did work during the cold war. The chance of all out war by any side would decrease dramatically but the problem is Iran would use it as a first strike weapon.
24. fadi
toni ,   sabme.   (11.04.06)
like i said i like your comments but im happy to know that israel has them and not an islamic theocracy cause allah only knows what they would do with them
25. Nuke Power
Maurice ,   Netanya   (11.04.06)
It is about time that the Middle east Countries started using Solar power which we have so much of and cannot be turned into destructive use. For economic puposes the Western world does not give a damn and is prepared to sell their atomic knowledge.
26. World says Bush is the problem
John ,   USA   (11.04.06)
A report today says only OBL is more a danger to world peace than GWB, according to polls in Mexico, Canada, and Britain. This development of the ME states developing nukes is just a variation on the theme. Since the US is no longer a fair arbiter in the ME conflict, the world is moving closer to China (African summit) and the EU (adopting to the Euro instead of the dollar.) Expect the US to continue to decline financially, and diplomatically in the world much like the Roman empire. Expect Israel to be the diplomatic and economic casualty in the fallout (to expect the least.)
27. 15, fadi
alex ,   arava.   (11.04.06)
Israel.. a threat to security???? What planet have you been living on??? The countries that were not a threat before.. will certainly become a serious threat if they develope weapons of nuclear caliber, plus they are all crazy enough to use them. Mark my words, the first country to fire will be an Arab country. When will you people learn.... the answer is that you won't untill its too late.
28. no.3
alex ,   arava   (11.04.06)
What a terrible suggestion, thats what Iran wants, it will continue to taunt the west until we attack them and we will play into their hands. Do you not follow the news??? The west are not really winning this war at all, to attack Iran would be madness.
29. #4 Kais
Suzanne   (11.04.06)
I loved your comment. But I am afraid as Sam Weinstein said as well: it worked during the Cold War indeed. Yet this does not guarantee it will work again. Especially not when there are "kamikaze-like" leaders who'd rather have its country and its citizens blown up either way, because they are convinced they will become martyars this way anyhow. This scary mentality makes living and for those who want a peaceful life, miserable.
30. what nuclear energy?
v. n.y. ,   usa   (11.04.06)
tell you what arabs....give us all the oil you have and we'll give you all the technology for PEACEFUL NUCLEAR REACTORS THAT GENERATE ONLY ELCETRICITY. FAIR DEAL? didn't think so, because all of you have a death wish....ballance the nuclear power in the mid east, my ass.
