6. All Israeli Ministers have access to intelligence Report
Tracy W   (02.25.07)
"The government is hearing the annual intelligence summary Sunday morning from Military Intelligence, the Mossad, the General Security Service (Shin Bet), the Foreign Ministry's intelligence division and the National Security Council (NSC). The summary, which is generally given to the security cabinet, is being presented to the full cabinet this year, because of the 2006 war in Lebanon and the cabinet's involvement in decisions regarding the war. The ministers – including the new Muslim Arab Minister Without Portfolio Raleb Majadle – will hear intelligence projections concerning Iran's nuclear program and the likelihood of war with Israel's enemies including Syria, Hizbullah and the Palestinian Authority. This is the first time a Muslim Arab minister is privy to the top secret session. The Prime Minister's bureau confirmed Majadle was invited to the intelligence briefing, along with all of the other ministers, and told IsraelNationalNews "this is another nice precedent that is being set this year."

Israel is able to handle Iran without any help from U.S.! Let the US soldiers stay home so the liberals can switch the subject to something else.
8. the drums of war are beating
debra ,   usa   (02.25.07)
counsels of war are taking place. Hashem is moving the good and great people of israel and america to destroy the iranian president who is an abomination and his nuclear sites. the jewish people will live free and israel will be forever.
9. Sorry. Iran isn't Iraq in 1981
Arabian Wolf   (02.25.07)
Iran has modern air defences ranging from Tor-m1 to S-300 with engaging range over 100 kilometers and F-14 jets with powerful radars that will pick IAF easily. So any attack by IAF will be extremely costly to them. i wuold predict 80-90% percent of planes would be lost

11. BOMBING IRANIAN FACILITIES
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (02.25.07)
So long as the talks and articles together with the interesting talk-back is concerned it sounds very interesting. Let us see how practical all these ideas are.
12. less talk, more action!
Iranian   (02.25.07)
bomb the Ayatollahs to "heaven" soon. they want to be "shaheeds" in the path of Islam, i`m sure the infidel "Zionists" and the US can facilitate and accommodate that! this world seems chaotic at times, but thank goodness that free and democratic countries have the upper hand in military strength and can put fanatics in their place. go Israel, do what is right!
13. #9 arabian wolf
debra ,   usa   (02.25.07)
first: there are no wolves in arabia. try yellowstone park, wyoming, usa, if you want to see a real wolf. that is if you would be let into the us, which i doubt very much. second: the iranian fighter planes are thirty years old. the same age as the car the iranian hitler brags about driving. they will be lucky if they can get off the ground, much less pose any problem for israel's airforce.
14. AN IRANIAN?........................#12
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (02.25.07)
Oh,yah?Interesting to note that oyu call yourself an Iranian.Why do you have to diguise yourself?Or are you amongst the lot that fled with the brutal and inhumane Shah(May the curse of Allah be upon him)
15. arabian wolf is a fool

16. Conquering George on his white horse
Marcel ,   Florida   (02.25.07)
Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the *seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, "Come and see." 2 And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer. Second Seal: Conflict on Earth 3 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, "Come *and see." 4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword. Third Seal: Scarcity on Earth 5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come and see." So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, "A *quart of wheat for a *denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine." Fourth Seal: Widespread Death on Earth 7 When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, "Come and see." 8 So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth. Revelation 6
17. #9 You are so funny, get in and learn
Dan ,   Israel   (02.25.07)
It's the second time I've seen this comment from you about the all mighty Iran with it's russian 1990's weapons. Russia isn't strong by technology or by quality, but by quantity. Their weapons are basicly useless agianst the best Israeli technology who are the leaders of the world in the area of not being noticed and avoiding missiles. Ever heared of the F-35 ? The next generation Air Craft ? Guess who is makeing all the electronics for this little gadget. You got it right, Israel ! Who are knownen as the best pilots in the world ? Israel (who BTW train some of the US elite pilots and also kicks the US ass in war games :P). F-14 ? The F-14 you got are 20+ years old junk that the US sold to get rid off. Those are old and useless planes who have a range of 350 km and not to talk about the missiles. Python 4 is the best Air-Air missile in the world and it's israeli made too. So I hope you will say hey to our planes when they will fly over the desert that you live in, with all the other musilms fanatics that know only what they are tought in the mosque.
18. F-16 Photo
Big Joe ,   Jerusalem, IL   (02.25.07)
A US air attack on Iran wouldn't use F-16s. It's a dumb picture.
19. Israel can handle Iran alone Mr Alex?
Nipi ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (02.25.07)
Do you remember that they couldn't handle a very little finger of Iran called Hizbullah? think about the situation when there is another Hizbullah in each country where there are some shias.
20. YOU ONLY TALK A LOT.

21. #14 Mahmood.
Iranian   (02.25.07)
sorry to burst your bubble mate. i am indeed Iranian born after the revolution and raised under the Islamic Republic of Iran. we Iranians, especially the ones that grew up Iran after the revolution, saw every human rights abuse, every crime imaginable committed under the name of Islam to us and our country and its national interest. i`m sorry, but Islam has not been very kind to us. economy destroyed, unemployment through the roof, addiction wide spread, human rights banned, all of our oil money spent on Hezbollah and plans to kill the "Zionist". the constitution of the Islamic Republic is based on destruction of Israel and the infidel west. now you tell me, is this the way to live a happy prosperous life?
22. sometimes war leads to peace better than land for peace
zionist forever   (02.25.07)
I doubt Israel has the physical capability to launch a pre emptive strike the way it did in 1981 when Saddam had only 1 neuclear site and there was the ellement of surprise. Iran has leaarned from Saddams mistakes and has spread their more advanced neuclear sites around and in underground bunkers there is also no element of surprise in this case and Iran unlike Iraq has missles capable of hitting Israel only the US can pull thiss off. The good news though is countries who dont recognise Israel are ready to support it to fight common enemy. Coalitions have a much more succesfull chaance of leading to real peace than land for peace does. Egypt & Jordan arab states both worry about the Iranian threat and they are supposed to have made peace with Israel based on the land for peace ideas but they are not offering even politcal support. Pakistan, Kuwait, UAE, Afghanistan and Oman all official enemy states are all offering support of some kind.
23. 21 YOU ARE NOT IRANIAN,YOU BELIEVE THAT WE ARE SILLY

26. #9
zionist forever   (02.25.07)
Iran does have modern air defenses allthough these can be beaten if pilot skill and avionics are good enough and its F14s are over 20 years old and there are limited spare parts the majority of their jets are older MIGS and an Iranian made jet based on the F5. It certainly wont be as simple as in 1981 and its doubtfull that even Israels newest F16s can pull it off because they have no stealth capability and they are no heavy bomberss unlike the US B2. A coalition of Gulf States and a countryr like Turkey would increasee chances of success but its still doubtfull weather Israeal can hit a number of defended underground bunkers without the element of surprise.
27. TOP 5 reasons Israel will not strike Iran

1) Israeli cowardice 2) Israeli cowardice 3) Israeli cowardice 4) Israeli cowardice 5) Israeli cowardice repeating: 1) Israeli cowardice 2) Israeli cowardice 3) Israeli cowardice 4) Israeli cowardice 5) Israeli cowardice
28. WELL REMARKED..........ARABIAN WOLF#9
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (02.25.07)
Your mention about the TOR missiles and the S-300 is not worth mentioning at all.Iran will definitely come up with lots of surprises.You can bet that most of the planes heading for Iranian airspace will be one-way traffic. Dont you see how Dan of Israel writes......Iran is supplied with obsolete weaponary from Russia!!!Do you believe the Iranian Defence Authorities are so daft?Wait till someone becomes adventurous and tries its bombing raid on Iran. Casualities that will follow will make Dan change his topic once and for all.
29. to 9 Arabian wolf (hahaha)
Menahem ,   Paris   (02.25.07)
The pure Arabian wolf’s eyes are yellow with black pupils. Today many are found with brown eyes, a certain sign that they are not of pure blood anymore and that their ancestors have interbred with feral dogs...........oh my God! ancestors ,are dogs! why not pigs or monkeys, all is possible with this sort of silly animal(arabian wolf)- about Iran and IAF you've forgot May 1967, you've forgot October 1973 all the planes of Massr and Syria distroyed on four hours ? ah! Iran is not Irak, Iran is not Egypt! Iran is not Syria Iran is ...nothing!!
30. to 24- Mouhamade
