Whip -round.I will supply the Whip.
2. "Peace is possible"
The Prophet ,   Ouar   (01.24.09)
What a good idea, with regional countries all with nuclear weapons maybe Israel will behave, it going to happen eventually anyway. I think we can all live with it so.
3. who says?...obama?

4. What a clever tactic
Brod ,   USA   (01.24.09)
to fool the world. The fact is Iran has their own uranium mine. While the world imbibes this crap, the Ayatollahs are feverishly working on the nukes, warheads and rockets.

Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (01.24.09)
Only America and Israel have the potential capacity and will to prevent Iran from attaining nukes. To allow the apocalyptical, jihadist, terrorist Iranian regime the most deadly weapons known to man, is tantamount to inviting an attack which would kill millions. There is no other choice but to deny Iran nuclear weapons. It seems that only America and Israel have the potential capacity and will to prevent Iran from attaining nukes. One of these two great nations must neutralize Iran’s nuclear facilities before it is too late. This, of course, must be done in conjunction with massive funding of Iranian dissident groups and energetic support for Iranian democrats who would like nothing more than to see their oppressive regime toppled. Regime change in Iran would be far superior to a military strike. But, the free world simply cannot take the chance that nukes are acquired before the regime is overthrown.

7. Israel is not as responsible as the West is Stating!!
Moise   (01.24.09)
Why should they permitted to own Nuclear weapons and not Iran. Actually, Iran showed more restraint that Israel in recent day. We saw how Israel used deadly weapons against civilians in Lebanon and Gaza savagely. Iran deserve it regional status, and deserve to to have a nuclear industry even weapons
8. Moise #7
Brod ,   USA   (01.24.09)
Iran shows more restraint? What a crap! Without Iran there would be no Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist organizations. Iran's former President Hashemi Rafsanjani publically stated that a single nuke could wipe off Israel.
9. The Prophet "so called"
Brad ,   USA   (01.24.09)
So, Israel needs to "behave". Translation: Israel needs to die. Another Jew hater. You are no more a prophet than Muhammed was. He has spent the last 1377 years in hell. You are on the same road that he took. Have a nice trip.
10. Moise
David ,   USA, exile   (01.24.09)
How intelligent are we today? Let's see. Ask a question and end it with a period instead of a question mark. Also ask a question that even Ray Charles could see the answer to. Your blindness is so profound that you don't see that the very people you are supporting will cut your throat if they get a chance. You are an infidel from the west. Even if you are muslim they will gladly sacrifice your life to their god ba'al and you will suddenly realise that there are no virgins waiting for you.
11. David & Brod, you are in denial, Israel is out of control!!
Moise   (01.24.09)
Don't blame me for my statement, blame Israeli leadership for their poor judgement. They show no mercy in the Gaza bloody adventure. Make no mistake, use of violence against civilians is not a show of strength, aucontraire it's a show of weakness. I am sorry to say this, but Israel acted irresponsibly, and doesn't deserve to be a nuclear regional power, it must be disarmed.
12. 7&11: A Soviet criticizing Israel about nukes & propaganda!!

13. Iran is short on uranium? All they have to do is go to
Rivkah   (01.24.09)
Muslim professors associated with the University of Cairo who work at universities in North America and they will be glad to steal yellow cake uranium and polonium-210. They are already doing that and putting it into water wells in America according to FBI consultant Paul Williams who has written books on the subject to warn people. 24 wells near Reno, Nevada, were poisoned with radioactive polonium-210. Wells in Fallon, Nevada, were, too. Even the milk from dairy farms in Fallon had to be thrown out. The only reason most communities think their water is safe is because it has not been tested for radioactive isotopes. For a long time children at Naval Air Station Fallon, Nevada, have been prone to get leukemia. It sure took a long time to get the water wells tested to find out why: radiation poisoning. America's enemies also pour jet fuel into the Colorado River to cause cancer downstream in cities like San Diego that drink it.
14. out of uranium?
tom ,   toronto, canada   (01.24.09)
whatever happened to iran's uranium mines, that were supposed to provide power when iran's oil ran out?
15. Lying and gossiping are British specialties.
Persian CAT   (01.24.09)
Remember the "sexed up" dossier the Brits created and GW used in his speech about Saddam buying nuclear materials from Niger? This is more of the same. Iran's nuclear program is legal, open and under IAEA monitoring. Israel's "secret" nuclear arsenal is the main threat to peace and stability in the ME and the world. As long as Israel must give them up, or others will get them too. Living with a nuclear-armed Zionist state is intolerable.
16. 7 & 11 A Question...
(01.25.09)
Why are you expecting the enemy to have mercy? I don't understand your twisted mind... You cant deny that hamas had its total infrastracture inside civilians hoods...hundrends of TNT charged buildings,rockets launched from within the different stories-you want us to stand&watch by? who the hell are you to judge us? Judge hamas-they should take care of their own ppl NOT me!! Hadn't they fired they could live peacly but they choose it and they got it and B.T.W they declare victory so go celebrate with them instead of crying.
17. Iran
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (01.25.09)
Isn't that terrible ? Iran is short on iranium,it is the duty of the international community to conduct an emergency collection of uranium,to the benefit of poor Iran,so it can proceed with it's maglomaniac nuclear goals.

Defender of Truth ,   USA   (01.25.09)
Actually, lying and gossiping are the specialty of muslim clerics. They are much better at it than the British could ever hope to be. Come back and comment on this page when your leaders can bring inflation and unemployment below 30% and you can produce one muslim Iranian scientist that can win a nobel prize in physics, chemistry, medicine, or economics. As you know many of your Jewish friends around the world have won in all categories on a number of occasions, dooste aziz.
19. Don't worry Iran...
shmulke ,   w coast usa   (01.25.09)
Israel has some, just keep your centrifuges going and I'm sure they'll send it very soon. Just point out exactly where you need it! Why, they'll even use their fastest planes to deliver it right to your doorstep.
20. OF COURSE HE DOESNT HAVE ENOUGH URANUM HE FIRED IT AT ISRAEL
zionist forever   (01.25.09)
Before 1991 The west believed that since Israel had blown away his nuclear reactor ten years earlier Saddam was nowhere near nuclear capable but they found at the end of the Gulf War that he was not far from having a nuke. They also finally appreciated what they condemed Israel for at the time when his reactor was bombed. If he had been allowed to develop nukes would the west even have dared go to war to get him out of Kuwait or would they be afraid that the madman Saddam would nuke them first.
21. 7
zionist forever   (01.25.09)
Other than the 5 members of the UN Security Council USA, RUSSIA, CHINA, FRANCE, UK have signed the Nucler Non Proliferation Treaty. Israel, India, Pakistan non of them have signed it so legaly they are allowed to develop nukes. Iran has signed it which means its ilegall under international law for Iran to have nukes. The idea Iran deserve nuclear weapons is the most irrisponsible at best stupid at worst. Nuclear Weapons are not prizes you hand out for being good. They are the most destructive man made objects in the world you don't just say you have been good so you should have a nuke as a reward. Iran is not legally allowed nuclear weapons and their proliferation should not be encouraged.

israeli   (01.25.09)
your help in arming palestinians is despicable, information was gathered about your words of peace, what the ordinary israeli can see, is that with friends like u, the palestinians don't need enemies. it is amazing how they managed not to blow themselves up for so long, with all this war equipment you supplied stashed under their homes together with dreams about palestine , a state that never was. and that's a fact palestine could sooner become a reality without your help. palestinians were sitting a top of explosives, built their houses on top of arsenal provided by you. you made it possible they would fire rockets at us, your machine guns in their mosks, your boobytraps in their streets, what were you thinking? all we can see is that you support mindless terror against us, you president openly states we shouldn't exist, so now you're saying you've merely been making preparations for "a friendly" use of nuclear power? we would love to be convinced, but this is more like insulting the average israeli intelligence. i would love to read your opinion on this, it's only an opinion, don't be shy
23. Yes, but.
Persian CAT   (01.25.09)
The Moslem clerics are as honest as other Jewish, Christian, Buddhist, etc. The clerics who are government officials lies just as the officials in any government. If you thing the economic data published by other governments are facts, then you can be called a bit gullible. I abhor the Iranian regime, but that's not what we're talking about here, doost-e geraami. As for the Nobel prize thing, I'm afraid you're coming across a bit racist. Those "Jew" who won those prices, certainly deserved to win. But the fact is they ALL has the opportunity to study and do research in the West in "Christian" universities. The picture was different when the Jews helped to enlighten the Darg Ages Europe by teaching them the sciences which they learned from the Moslems. Those are facts, my friend.
24. #22. In my opinion...
Persian CAT   (01.25.09)
The first three paragraphs of you post were merely Zionist, racist crap. As for my supporting terror, you are wrong. I support resistance against occupation, land grab and Apartheid. I do believe Israel has the right to exist and Israelis have a right to peace and stability. But Israel, must "exist" withing its 1948 international borders, the Jewish settler terrorist all brought back to the "Israel proper". For your information, the Iranian government has publicly announced that it with comply with any peace treaty which the Palestinian people accept. It seems to me the best way to get Iran off your backs is to have peace with the Palestinians. What' so hard to understand about this fact? BTW, again, I don't give a rat's ass about what the Iranian president or anyone in the Iranian government says about anyone. The problem is Israel has turned the world opinion against itself by committing war crimes over and over.
25. #24 ISRAEL WENT ON A MISSION TO EXPLODE AS MUCH OF YOUR
(01.27.09)
ARSENAL AS POSSIBLE IN GAZA. YOU TAUGHT THE GAZANS WARFARE & THAT THEY SHOULD HIDE IRANIAN AMMUNITION UNDER THEIR HOMES IN BUNKERS NOT TO MENTION ROCKET LAUNCHERS IN MOSKS AND BOOBYTRAPS IN PUBLIC PLACES SAME TRAINING AS FOR HIZBULLAH WE'VE MET YOUR TRICKS, AND STUDIED YOUR WAYS WE KNOW ALL ABOUT YOUR ARMS TO TERRORIST GROUPS YOU SHOULD UNCOVER WHAT YOUR HEADS OF STATE DON'T WANT YOU TO SEE, BUT YOU CAN'T AS IT IS NOT A DEMOCRACY
26. #24 WHAT OCCUPATION? if israel ruled there would be NO
(01.27.09)
GENERAL elections. no hamas party would be democratically terrify the gazans and get elected you are way beyond ME events, the "occupation" they now refer to, is closing our borders with them, which is our right, as would be your right, if someone was at your border trying to kill you with iranian weapons. the borders are shut, but israel does not occupy the gaza strip. and that is a fact in fact, we got all jewish people out of the gaza strip 3 years ago when they got freedom from our occupation
