31. Reality check? Persia has been good!
David ,   Shilo Israel   (07.20.08)
I am probably a more demonized image than an Iranian politician, being a right wing religious settler in 'occupied' Israeli territory. If truth counts for anything in this world, here goes...Persia (now called Iran) has been historically one of the greatest friends of 'Am Yisroel'. From the time of King Darius through to the Shah, there has been many recorded incidents of close cooperation. I am totally against their present regimes policies both towards Israel & many of their own moderate countrymen that prefer a more benign leadership. Therefore, attempts to encourage new leadership should be explored, together with a realistic plan to destroy any current militiary capability that seeks Israel's demise. I don't think that our government is sufficiently righteous enough to embark on a course of action leading to the death of countless innocents, especially our own. In time we will destroy 'all our enemies' (kuntar take note) . Meanwhile, let's take a reality check to know exactly who is our enemy and who is capable of successfully leading us against them.
32. One Thing We Can All Agree On, Jew + Muslim Alike
Seth ,   Washington, DC   (07.20.08)
Ahmadinejad is one hell of a good-looking man!
33. THEY MUST BE TERRIFIED
Yossi ,   Nahariya ISRAEL   (07.20.08)
Or is the lion going to lie down with the lamb (Mashiach must be coming soon!). Or do they want to avoid another Iraq? That scenario means no water, no electricity and death. Maybe an alternative government: an invitation to the "people of Israel and the USA" to knock the block off their leaders.
34. What a Clown
Liliane ,   Brighton, SX, UK   (07.20.08)
These guys are clowns / jokesters. They take us for fools.
35. The bigger the lie
Nora ,   Tel Aviv   (07.20.08)
the bigger the time gained to produce the bomb.
36. ACTIONS speak louder than words. ...
Stewart ,   USA   (07.20.08)
If they don't stop aiding Hamas and Hezbola, does anything they say mean a thing? Are these guys just going to role over? Kind of awkward for the Iatolas to let Aqua Velva jad shot his mouth off for as long as they did and now this. Did wonders for the price of oil. WHAT WOULD PRESSURE THEM TO PULL THIS NOW? OR, WHAT WOULD MOTIVATE THEM TO PULL THIS NOW? I don't think all of it is the obvious we are seeing on the surface.
37. if Abu Mazen is a "moderate," so why not believe this guy
Moshe ,   Beit Shemesh   (07.20.08)
after all, peace is made with enemiies, no ??? c'mon moron leftists, let's come up with some more "risks" for peace. this guy seems 'moderate'

39. "With friends like these,who needs enemies?"
jason white ,   afula,israel   (07.20.08)
Perhaps it was a typo and they put the r in by mistake? They are fiends of Israel makes more sense.
40. David, Shilo Israel.... Improving an Image
James Hovland ,   Home of the barve   (07.21.08)
I can understand your position as a settler being demonize, but I can't know how that feels. I would guess by your comments that you're a good person, perhaps even exceptional. I think I'll stick with that assumption. Stereo types effect us all, some far more than others. Most of what anyone hears about people who are being demonized is only true in very isolated cases, but sadly it is applied to entire groups. I talk to people all over the world from all sides of this and other conflicts, and they love to hear about comments like yours. Thank you for the opportunity to speak well of you.
41. #25 Cyrus, excellent comments
James Hovland ,   Home of the brave   (07.21.08)
That was a great article, I see things are starting to move in the right direction. Normal relations start with normal people.
42. Listen to Moshe, you can shape the future
James Hovland ,   Land of the free   (07.21.08)
Don't read my post, read what Moshe wrote. Talkback #17
43. Iotola's can change the faucet from hot to cold and back ...
Stewart ,   USA   (07.22.08)
... anytime they wish. This is a lot more complex then just responding to them reaching out. Take a look at who the puppets and puppetiers are and have been.
44. Iran President & Deputy statements
DeWayne ,   Blaine, USA   (12.11.08)
The author Dudi Cohen appears or indicated Iran leaders have changed opinion regarding the Zionist-gov (called regime), when in fact this alone is the continued desire to see the Zionist aggressions disappear. As an American and Christian that has bothered to become informed in these issues, I've found the leaders in Iran continue to look for peaceful messures between Jewish people and Iranian people. It amazes me to read articles that remain surprised of these facts. As more people become informed, perhaps these surprises will be found less often.
