1. I just wonder how....
dan ,   usa   (11.19.08)
Ahamadinejad will have time to dialogue with Obama between hanging gays, executing bloggers, stoning women, and shooting missiles at the entire world. Hey Mr. Obama: still want to talk to these people?????
2. Iran blocking millions of web sites
Millicent ,   Israel   (11.19.08)
This is suprising how exactly? These are the same people that spew hatred throughout the middle east,beat women for dressing immodestly Use stonning, hanging,shooting and thorwing people in jail and leaving there to be tortured. They deny their own people human rights so this is not new, nor news worthy!
3. Censorship, the cornerstone of any tyranny.
Avinoam ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (11.19.08)
Censorship; dogma; propaganda; oppression; ambitions of genocide. Such a friendly country. I don't see who wouldn't want to take them seriously politically. And just because they have no problems hiding information from their own populace doesn't mean that they'd do the same to the international community. Clearly a shining beacon of morality.
4. Bomb Iran...with smut, porn, and decadence
Jake   (11.19.08)
Inundate it with so much immorality, that the Moolahs will sink every last dime of Iran's oil revenues into combatting this Haram tsunami. They will bankrupt the regime and its nuclear program, discrediting it in the eyes of the Iranian people. The illegitimate theocratic regime will collapse under its own weight.
5. 5 million sites blocked.....
Malone ,   Hfx   (11.19.08)
.....means they have at least 5 million pissed off people..add that to the rest of the pissed off people and that's alot. Most of these are probably younger,better informed,and fed up with this oppressive regime. Sooner or later,the top is going to blow off of this pressure cooker.
6. It is so good to live in the Iranian Muslim heaven...
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (11.19.08)
... where freedom of speech is reserved only for the crazed mullahs and retard Monkeys, where Iranians can be picked up on the street and beaten up, then taken to be tortured in the dungeons of the "religion of peace", where women are allowed to be reproduction means for men and slaves at home, where other religions are banned and their practitioners persecutated and hanged as "traitors" or "spies"... And this is the same country which dreams to acquire Nuclear Capability. It is like entrusting your family's life to a Schizophrenic with a machine gun! But there is one thing which is good about banning foreign sites. Maybe we'll get fewer Iranian propaganda on the Ynet forum. "Persian Cat" anyone?
7. negativity
alishia   (11.20.08)
why do we care?
8. Just what Shas wants to de here in Israel
Avi ,   Ramat Gan   (11.20.08)
Once again we have a comparison to Shas. This is exactly what Shas wants to do, decided for other people what web sites we can and cannot see according to their warped sense of Morality. And as we all know, by denying people their free choice and imposing religion on them its the easiest way to control the masses and gain political power.
9. Truth Shall In Fact Set It Free
Dav Lev ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (11.20.08)
Very interesting article from several aspects. A famed psychologist here says, nothing to hide, then hide nothing. Iran has everything to hide, from it's own people and the rest of the world. It's one commodity economy is in shambles. It needs to import oil. It is spending billions to produce electricity with a slight diversion for nuclear power, and leverage. It lies about everything, It doesn't want the truth (which per my Christian friends, would set it free). Truer words were never spoken and apply here. Hopefully, Israel is beaming the truth into Iran every day. This is the weapon that will bring down it's corrupt dictatorship and realize finally freedom for it's people.
10. Islam Is Fear
Dennis ,   Waxahatchie, Texas   (11.20.08)
Just fear of the truth. Let's not bomb 'em with smut. Let's bomb the whole country with re-runs of "Leave it to Beaver". The History Channel. And FOX NEWS ! These MuleAHs fear the truth, because they can't convince their own people that what the Government is doing to them is right. If we show these people the good things they're missing by having no real freedom, no Democracy, and no voice in how their Country is run,they might start kicking some ass, and get their Country back. From everything I've heard, the General Population there consists of pretty good people, for the main part. I believe if they are ever free, we in the USA would be their friends, and rooting for them all the way. VIVA Freedom for Iran !
11. Malone, Hfx
Dennis ,   Waxahatchie, Texas   (11.20.08)
Damn Right, Malone. Sock it To 'em
12. khamenei says:71 million must share my 1 brain?
yahn goodey   (11.20.08)
most leaders of other countries secretly wish the same for themselves---just like our olmert but irans leader is so sure that he is a god that he doesn't even bother to try hide his insanity.
