1. Iranian satellite over Israel
Nora ,   Tel Aviv   (08.17.08)
The danger is growing from day to day. How about a preemptive strike? The West wants us to forge it. All the West is ready to do is send us tents, water, biscuits and soap for the survivors and bags, chalk and shovels for the rest. All that ,after the "Emptive" Iranian attack.
2. Iran's Satellite
Robot   (08.17.08)
Danger Will Robinson! This if true is a dangerous step in their development towards being a danger to the world. First Satellites then they will try for weapons in space. They are already trying to get nuclear weapons and if they are so determined will have them in a few months not years! Stop the Iranian Threat now, before they target Israel, the Gulf States, and then the EU and US main land, even Russia will be threatened by them.
3. Iran sends Chimp into Space
Larry ,   zefat israel   (08.17.08)
Iran sends the chimp Ahmadinejad into space.Anyway that is of no importance for the Israelis ,all that matters is who will be the P.M. here ,Livni ,Barak or Mofaz.
4. What gives Israel the right to anything?
Edithann, USA   (08.17.08)
You got that right #1..and that's what you'll get ..If you insist on committing suicide you will do it without Americans... Every soverign nation has the right to do what Iran is doing..and no peoples on a piss pot piece of stolen land has any right to do anything about it.!!. Every neighbor is a possible threat..do you kill all your neighbors?.. Learn to live with others of move out of the neighborhood.. It's not rocket science.!
5. Forget Iran..they're no threat to Israel and never were..
Edithann, USA   (08.17.08)
Read what you wrote again Robot..as it makes no sense.. Why on earth would Iran even bother with Israel? Is Israel a real threat to a nation as big as Iran.. Get real..you're amatures..a stolen nothing illegal state who can't defend themselves without American help... Better learn to live together..what's wrond with that? Why should Palestinians turn their homes and lands over to Jews..'doesn't make any sense..just as bombing Iran makes even less sense...
6. satelite
sal ,   boston usa   (08.17.08)

8. Iranian sattelite
Septimus ,   Rome   (08.17.08)
made by Russians, launched by russian or Northern Korean rockets, and baptized "iranian" by the ludicrous Ahmadarejendeh ! This is not that kind of illusionists tricks that will deter Israel to strike you to death on your nukes program ! nothing new under the sun !
9. Iranian talented "scientists"
Iran Eater ,   USA   (08.17.08)
You don't get it folks ! That wasn't the US who set the foot on the moon in 1969 ! It was the iranians, and the astaronaut was not Armstrong but a guy named Ahmad or Ali. Of cours e we all acknowledge the special quality of Iranian science who is not capable to furnish sufficient gas for their own local consumation while being a major oil exporter, but we shouldn't be so hard with those geniuses who gives mankind so great scientist.. By the way how many Iranians get the Nobel price ? But yeah they invented the flyng dustbin, the invisible submarine and there will be some mongrels to believe it ! How funny are those carpet makers pistachios eaters camel loving people ! O Yeah

Bandar ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (08.17.08)
Dont you think you are being too dramatc here? Do I sense fear? Where is your invincible IDF?
11. ISRAEL HAS 1200 NUKES - RELAX
CHOSEN WORLD ,   TORONTO CANADA   (08.17.08)
Nora, your timbers are shivering needlessly. Why advocate a holocaust of Muslims when Israel has 1200 nukes and thousands of bio-horror weapons pointed at all the goy capitals world wide? Ask Van Creveld for advice before your knickers are knotted.
12. WARN THE GOY! IRAN IS COMING!
CHOSEN WORLD ,   TORONTO CANADA   (08.17.08)
ROBOT #2: Warn the goy! Warn the goy! Iran will destroy Russia, the EU and ... itself. Stop this Muslim abomination that can launch its own ... gasp... satellites. CHOSEN WORLD - OUR WAR ON ISLAM AND OUR OWN FREEDOMS does have Israel moving to Canada - lock, stock and WMD. It can hide from Iranian WMD while attacking Iran. Nice, eh?
13. satellite
michael ,   canada   (08.17.08)
Don't believe it for a moment. already the Mullahs are taking it back, saying they only fired a two stage missile with no satellite- see FOX NEWS.
14. shoot it down
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (08.17.08)
america has the technology to shoot down satellites, so it would be wise to shoot that baby down asap.
15. #4 Congratulations! You have proven to us that you could
NEVER be a rocket- ,   scientist either!!!!   (08.17.08)

john ,   USA   (08.17.08)

on the space shuttle ,   by myself! Rueben   (08.17.08)
19. Fear Not Israel
Ezra ben Abraham ,   San Diego   (08.17.08)
No weapon formed by man shall destroy you. Trust in your G-d and the covenant made to you oh Jerusalem. The satellite will undoubtedly be used for military communications. Shoot it down, they'll throw up another one. Good for target practice.
20. it was a dummy set
(08.17.08)
The Iranians have since anounced that it was a dummy satellite
21. it was a dummy satellite
zionist forever   (08.17.08)
The Iranians have since anounced that it was a dummy not a satellite. No mullahs on the moon just yet.
22. Reply to Edithan, USA #4 & #5
Bandar ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (08.17.08)
The problem is simple. Israel does not have scientist capable of achieving what the Iranians are achieving. If they cant have it, no one else should. Its unbelievable how arrogant the Israelis can be.
23. #4&5 Hey IDIOTTHAN you have just told us you have not 1 clue
who we have a ,   covenant with.   (08.17.08)
24. Edithann, a little bitter about the Bible are we?
DannyBoy ,   America   (08.17.08)
Have just a little resentment about your Biblical upbringing? Or are you just lacking any sense to think that Israel is the aggressor in this Arab war against Israel? I think I am spot on about your resentments. Forgive your parents the church and let God be God... He really does love you and only wants to bless you. Your anger is blocking the sunlight of the spirit from you. You are stuck in a dark hole with no way out but mercy. Seek it and you will find it, God is that Big! Revive the faith you had as a little child, the Jesus is in the sky thing and let God help you apprehend that which you were (originally) apprehended for. Your eyes are blinded to the propaganda that you are believing, that Israel is the villian. Remember God told us beforehand how this Conflict will turn out, and if you had a lick of sense you would see it and change your mind about right and wrong, lies and truth.
25. Arutz Sheva just reported that Iran just adimtted that the
satellite was a ,   dummy!! Rueben   (08.17.08)

DannyBoy ,   America   (08.17.08)
shoulders of Giants, who were mostly from the West. Gee no wonder they hate the west,, everyday they are reminded how their religion robs them of true greatness. sadly they are poor imitators suffering from their own blind guides.
29. #8. I defy you to prove the equipment were not made in Iran.
