1. ACCORDING TO PROPHECY, ARABS WAR THEN JEWS NEXT WAR=EDOM
THEY WILL KNOW THE ,   ONE G'D OF ISRAEL...   (05.25.07)
THIS WHAT THE LEADERS OF ISRAEL BRING UPON THE JEWISH NATION... THEY LEAD JEWS AWAY FROM GD. WE ALL PAY THE PRCE
2. The most baffling thing is that extremists
Jake T ,   Alaska   (05.25.07)
have sympathizers and apologysts among the non-Muslim, well-educated, otherwise normal Western public. Their attitudes are downright pathological. This self-destructive population are the ones marching for the rights not to be racially profiled, not to be surveilled by security forces, etc., all the while demonizing the democratic nations that stand up the Islamic threat.
3. Don't Worry Israel, You Aren't The Top Target
David ,   Marietta USA   (05.25.07)
It's the US, if Hillary, Hussein Obama, and MoveOn.org have their way. By-by Long Beach, Ca or Midtown Manattan. You were nice while we still had you.
4. Do nothing world, UN
Joe Halligan ,   Brooklyn, NY   (05.25.07)
As usual there will be a lot of talk and "the world" will DO NOTHING to prevent this UNTIL a nuclear strike happens. Then everybody will run around crying, "why didn't we do something." Fingers will be pointed and then all hell will break lose and we'll be solidly locked into a war between Islamofascits and everybody else. You wait and see. What's especially disturbing about this, is you all know I'm right.
5. DON'T WORRY, john edwards WILL STOP THEM

Cameron ,   USA   (05.25.07)
our rich, grinning Liberal. Anyone who can swing a $400 haircut has got to be savior material!
7. #4 - Joe
Judy Y ,   Los Angeles   (05.25.07)
If it were to happen, maybe the cry "why didn't we do something" would come from Israelis and Jews. The rest of the Western world, Joe, would say the same thing they said after 9/11: It's our fault. Or It's the US's fault. Or What did WE do wrong? Or Let's talk. Let's find out what they want from us and then compromise and accommodate and appease. And the inevitable statement from the White House: This is the work of extremists. The rest are all peaceful, democracy loving citizens. The West does not have the spirit to fight back. Just review your local, European or even the Israeli media and read all the self-hating and democracy hating stuff that is being published.
8. muslim nuke attack? destroy mecca, etc.
dante ,   uk   (05.26.07)
9. #7 and Judy... In the 'blame game' the buck stops at Israel
(05.26.07)
Yes, the world's 'whipping boy' will be held accountable as the cause all the 'hate'.
10. #7- woe to us, Judy
Cameron ,   USA   (05.26.07)
Cultural success and the resulting years of peace & prosperity seemed to have created a powerful movement of cultural self-hatred and apathy. Now we are stuck with a legion of ding-dong 3rd-World primitives hammering on the gates. Oh the perils of getting it right!
11. The west should vow to nuke mecca and
jason white ,   afula,israel   (05.26.07)
medina.Then the rest of the moslem holy places.Then 100 moslem population centers. That is what would be the result of the mad dog al queda nuke.
12. WHOA, I think Al Qaeda has lost its mind
Mustafa ,   Canada   (05.26.07)
I mean now not only are they gonna kill Americans, they're gonna kill everybody.
13. I just want to know when iran didnt comply with the NPT.
AR ,   USA   (05.26.07)
If anyone knows please tell me. Which of its obligations under the NPT did Iran not comply with?
14. This guy is a liar.
AR ,   USA   (05.26.07)
He said iran is in non-compliance with the NPT which is untrue iran has complied with all its obligations under the NPT. Ask the IAEA they enforce it.
15. quick, call Batman
no ,   Superman!   (05.26.07)
before Lex Luthor gets involved
16. 7 you wrong
tom ,   israel   (05.26.07)
The media in my country don't busy with self-hating, we have, as you probably know a very dynamic reality but now we want miltary opeartion in Gaza strip. maybe you are fragile person, I'm not and majority of my people are'nt, nothing can prevent me the motivation to fight against my enemies, no matter who they are or where they are. we suffered thousands!!! of years in exile, do you seriously think that because of the faliure last summer we give-up?, hell no. I'm always optimist and I give you my word, ' god won't leave the people of the book'. I'm agree with Iranians: "when the nation interests are in stake, we are prepare to sacrifice ourselves". have a nice day judy!!!
17. hit them where it hurts
DJ ,   USA   (05.26.07)
Indisputedly, al-Qaeda soldiers and other like-minded Islamic warriors, willing to sacrifice themselves, wll not be defeated by attacking strategic resources or the soldiers themselves. Kill the leaders, and others step forward to continue the war.....destroy all their weapons and they rearm in the ensuing cease-fire. They are not being attacked in any way that motivates them to seek negotiated settlement. Might it be more effective to threaten them with consequences that have meaning to them? e.g. if you attack us, we will destroy your mosques and holy places. Publish a specific list of what penalties to expect for given attacks.....including erasing Mecca, and whatever else is most valued, as a response to the use of a nuclear weapon.
18. Al Queda and Semantics
Brod ,   USA   (05.26.07)
Using the name Al Queda is just a cover up for Islamist-Jihadists and their funders, sponsors and supporters. It is time to reveal who these dark forces are. They are Islamist-Jihadist Pakistanis, Saudis, Wahhabhists, Sunnis, Ayatollahists and Shiites. From the mouths of captured top leaders of Al Queda, they revealed to the world who their funders and sponsors. You can read about this in Gerald Posner's powerful book, "Secrets of the Kingdom" and Colonel David Hunt's explosive book, "They Just Don't Get It." The Free World better know their enemy. The latter is lethal, deceptive and awash in their dark and evil world and ideology of Jihadism. This has been their nature since their emergence in the Arabian Desert in the 7th century.
19. Use it now or never
Arthur ,   Israel   (05.26.07)
Soon, very soon they will have it. With Iran; a loose bull with Nuclear horns and Pakistan's Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan's consultant engineering firm is looking for customer to supply N Technology, France, Canada, China also for some extent USA and England unwillingly willing to part with some Know how, these mad-man called Bin Laden is not far from acquiring at list 2 to 5 N Bombs within a few years from now. Stop all N Expansions all over the world, destroy Iran's facilities before they are on real steam, seize Pakistan's facilities, cool it down and destroy it. Destroy Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan and his engineers. No one is safe without it. These mad men will use the bomb without second thought, and so called civilized advanced countries will use N weapons to destroy these mad-men. On the whole it is total destruction. Better use it now; with calculated risk to destroy Al-Queida leadership.
20. You're Just Trying To Scare Us.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (05.26.07)
Next thing you know, you'll be telling us that Muslim crazies would fly airplanes into tall buildings.
21. fighting back
glrex ,   Los Angeles, USA   (05.26.07)
Judy, if you're entirely right, we should give up now. Why twist ourselves into knots trying to fight if we've already given up? We have to continue pushing our governments, friends and neighbors to fight for our freedom, and to fight against the Islamic murderers. We have to continue to point out the mealy-mouhted appeasement and self-hatred in which the West too often indulges. This is as much of a propaganda war as a military one and those of us who know the truth need to continue to push. Sadly, Joe is correct when he says that many innocents will have to die in order for the West to respond. Judy, I am as concerned as you are that we will lack the staying power in a long fight. In order to make it a shorter fight we need to be on the offensive on all fronts.
22. Zionist Al-Queda first will use Nukes against Muslim &Arabs!
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (05.26.07)
Have you ever seen any attack Directed at Israeli targets by Al-Queda? When they attact Synegoges in Turkey they killed all muslims an NO JEWS(I do not desire jews to die but it is noteworthy) Calculate their killings, What is the proportion of Muslim to Zionists, Ok Already No zionist, let me ask again, Calculate Muslim to All-Non muslims killed by Al-Queda: It is not even 100:1, that is, all Al-Queda killings are targetted at 99% muslim arabs, and onlly 1% or less is from the rest, and There is NO Zionist among them. Now Try to imagine a secret Zionist organization plans to erect an Anti-Muslim murderers, could it achieve such proportions in their malice? No, Al-Queda is not only Zionist Organization but also Most SUCCESSFULL zionist organization you can ever imagine, more than IDF, Israel anyting you can compare!

24. Safe Nuclear Energy: A Huge Oxymoron
emanon ,   USA   (05.26.07)
Aside from the threat posed by al-Queda, this article points out why there is no such thing as "nuclear energy for peaceful purposes". There is no such thing as it is all to easy to pervert into a destructive force. NO NATION NEEDS NUCLEAR ENERGY OF ANY KIND. The operations are susceptible to terrorist exploitation. The fuels used are highly toxic to all life. The byproducts are highly toxic to all life. Both the fuels and the byproducts are extremely unstable. Both the fuels and the byproducts are toxic for thousands of years. There is no safe or suitable way to store the fuels or by products. Production of energy from nuclear sources is inherently more dangerous than the yield of energy is worth. All nations need 1) to suspend the development of any new nuclear programs, 2) find a better alternative using nonpolluting sources and 3) find a safe way to dismantle any existing nuclear facility. The world has some brilliant minds. Let's put them together and work to help ourselves, not destroy each other.
25. prophetic
Marcel ,   Florida   (05.26.07)
exerpt; No one in their right mind of Christ can desire this present world to continue. The stench of filth is everywhere and the smell of vomit flows through the streets of the world. The Devil has no doubt SPEWED OUT OF HIS MOUTH, and God also has vomited out and is vomiting out of his mouth the lukewarm Laodecian church in the earth today. Why are they called LUKEWARM? Because they are neither hot nor cold. There burns no holy passion to change the world. Even under the Old Testament a man named Phineas had the guts, or the holy passion to put an end to the curse that was prevailing in the camp of God, so he took a spear and thrust it through the Israelite man and the Canaanite woman. The plague of death stopped. God admired the man and said his seed would be blessed forever. The seed of Phineas is about to release In Israel, while the Islamic terrorist backed by Russia are about to explode in wrath against the United States of America. Mark these words. It will not be long before the White House, The Capitol Building and the President of the United States are hit with a ferocity they have never known could come. There will be an attack against the White House and the Capitol Building and the inhabitants of Washington D.C. will run through the streets as did the inhabitants of New York city on 9-11. Washington D.C. is near to collapse! The house shall fall and the nation shall go into a tailspin that will cause it to face the reality of its demise. vincent Xavier
26. The most baffling thing
g brazier ,   Temple , USA   (05.27.07)
It is the lack of education...Jake in Alaska.....people need to see the movie "obsession", read the books of Bridgette Gabriel, Walid Shoebat, etc......... What one will learn is that the holy book of the Muslims is also the constitution that is to be used after conquest, replacing the USA constitution......... and it will be shria law............Osama is working towards this goal, read , read read....
27. #16 Tom - I admire your spirit
Judy Y   (05.28.07)
but I disagree with you regarding the Israeli media. There is too much self-loathing, settler-hating, and self-defense hating. Not all of them, not all the time, but there is just too much of it. I hope your spirit overcomes all obstacles, for a strong and long lived Israel. Don't give up an inch of terrritory, ever!
28. #27 sharing
DJ ,   USA   (05.28.07)
The most difficult thing to teach our children is sharing. "Me, me, me.....mine, mine, mine!" And it doesn't get any easier when they grow up. There are very many places on our planet that are claimed by two peoples.....with resultant conflict and violence. It's seemingly the natural state of humankind. Judy #27: "Don't give up an inch".......it seems you are the normal: you never learned how to share. It would be a better life to share the Earth with those who would share in return: which includes full peace and civil relations (i.e. reciprocal unrestricted access to each others' countries) among neighbors. If there is peace, it doen't matter where the boundaries are drawn. However, if a country restricts neighbors' access to portions of its land, then boundaries become an important issue. Arabs cannot expect unfettered access to Israel, and restrict Israelis in their countries. Judy Y: The "self-loathing, self-defense hating" you see in the Israeli media is a reflection of the Jewish ethos: we prefer non-violent negotiation to solve problems. To be forced into violence to protect our lives and community, is not a welcome paradigm. Be proud that we are uncomfortable participating in killing. We raise our children to want peace. So, let's give up as many inches as necessary to make true peace........with the condtion that If there is any further resort to violence, then as a multi-laterally, publically acknowledged pre-agreed upon condition.........pre-peace boundaries will be officially (UN sanctioned) and quickly reestablished and recognized as permanent.
29. 27- thank you!!!
tom -16 ,   Israel   (05.29.07)
We don't agree with each other , but both of us tolerants people that can solve every argument by open discussion. "they can kill all of us but they never take our freedom" (the Braveheart movie).
30. nukes?
plyadies ,   Ca.-USA   (06.02.07)
Your telling me thay don't have any nukes? No raw stuff to make dirty bombs?I thought years back they bought the stuff from Russia. They are such a stupid people. They fight against our living God and know it not.They teach their kids to kill them selves and maybe a Jew with him. Poor kids don't realize it's just a waste of his life. It don't change anything.
