promiscuous women?or the Gay men? or cheating of the poor? ok, ok, ok, fair enough - please show me or give me one example of where these things don't occur. Or tell me of a time when they didn't occur, show/tell me an example of where it is clearly described and demonstrated that it didn't happen in any particular place at any particular point in history? Your self-righteousness, your lofty indignation, your judgment, your condemnation is what you must abandon, release your lust for the "King of the Jews" deny your Ribbi Yeshua, embrace these wanton sinners that offend your eyes; help the poor everyday by lifting them up, by defending them, by "giving" to them in what ways you can. I leave you with this thought. "If I am not for myself then who will be for me? and if I am only for myself then what am I? and if not now when?"
32. El Baradei himself culpable for Iran's getting away with it
Shalom Freedman ,   Jerusalem   (05.16.09)
This irresponsible hypocrite has been lied to and deceived by Iran again and again. Iran moved its nuclear program forward under his ever- averted eyes. He was given a Nobel Prize. He should have been arrested.
33. what exactly has this guy contributed?
Ran   (05.17.09)
answer: a big fat zero - he has done NOTHING EVER - except to cover for his Mohammedan buddies.
34. WHY BLAME ELBARADEI?
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (05.17.09)
he has just expressed his opinion and being in business with the Iranians,probably knows better,much better than all the talknack writers.After all ynetnews published his address.Why aren't you accepting a fact.Iran's retaliation itself may make some to regret having even tried to conduct air raids on their Nuclear facilities.Furhermore,do you believe that the Iranians have not made any plans to respond to the very first act of war and that their rsponse could set the entire Middle East in disarray?
35. #34 ANY RETALIATION BY IRAN WILL SEE IT NUKED.
(05.17.09)
Disagree? Good luck with your own delusions. IF an attack on Iran's facilities prompts ANY kind of response - by ANYONE. Yes, the whole area will be a flame. Israel is too small an area to allow ANY response. One successful hit on Israel will be major - and that is likely. You had better hope that Iran does not do anything - as they will not be around to gather dates let alone build a bomb. That county will be smashed as will be ANYONE who wants to join in.
36. "Start building bomb" --What do you think they're doing now!

37. ELBARADEI IS AT FAULT BECAUSE HE STICKS HIS NOSE WHERE IT
MAHMOODY ,   UKISTAN-LONDONOSTAN   (05.17.09)
DOESN'T BELONG. HE IS SUBBOSED TO BE A WATCH DOG OVER NUCLEAR ISSUES AND NOT MAKE BOLITICAL COMMENTARY. THE FACT THAT HE MAKES SUCH COMMENTS SHOWS WHERE HIS HEART REALLY IS, AND BRINGS ABOUT SUSBICIONS THAT HE ALLOWED IRAN TO DEVELOB NUCLEAR WAR CABABILITY BECAUSE HE HAS A BOLITICAL AGENDA.

Rivkah   (05.17.09)
the flaunting of sodomy, the wanton eyes of women, and the cheating of the poor IN JERUSALEM, HIS HOLY LAND, HIS HOLY MOUNTAIN, HIS HOLY HILL! Don't you think Jerusalem should be different from other places since it is shaped like the letter shin and Yah calls it His own? In regard to the Messiah, He has come many times. I believe he was Melchisedek, King of Salem, that the Patriarch Abraham gave tithes to. I believe he was in the firey furnace in Babylon with Meshach, Shadrach, and Abed-Nego. I believe He was also Yeshua the Rabbi, but you do not. The tragedy is that PEOPLE changed the commandments and written laws of God given to Moses. Rabbi Yeshua obeyed them and said those who loved him would obey the commandments. HE did not change the laws of Moses: people who followed him did and then they made a mockery of his religion by changing the Shabbat and circumcism and other commands. YOU blame Rabbi Yeshua. You should be thankful he was and is and always will be a Jew. He warned of another Jesus people would worship who was not Yeshua.
39. this
x ,   uk   (05.17.09)
All u lot need to learn about, love, liberty, personal freedom and critical thinking. Iran is no threat and under international law they are allowed to have nuclear power for domestic reasons, which they have complied to. This is like a saddam hysteria to me. Look what happened there. Worry about your own lives rather than some bullshit hundreds or thousands of miles away. I'm sick of reading this racist shit. Theres good people and bad people no matter what religion or country. Just THINK, and GOD forbid we have a major war...Half white, half black brought up as a christian with friends of many faiths, not of which are wrong, as it CANNOT be proven human. GROW YOUR OWN MINDS AND STOP WATCHING TV.
40. Yeah we have seen the plans of iran preparing for war...
Not buying it   (05.17.09)
They didn't do quite as good as they boasted defending Lebanon. And the way they fought is gaza, actually made me feel sorry for the Palestinians for the first time in a long time. They may cause great hardship for the whole world in their idiotic holy war, but in the end they always lose, because there is a God in this world and His hand is against them. I could care less what some UN jackass says. I have God's word as a guide. They are nothing more than fish on a hook. Just given enough bait so God is justified in how he hooks and cooks em.
41. #11, El Baradey
Dany ,   Toronto   (05.17.09)
Listen you smart alec. 1. Stop philosphizing 2. Don't interpret the words of the Iranianian as You like... 3. Fact: The Iranian is saying: Erase Israel of the map. This is as simple as can be & anyone with a brain doesn't buy your arguments + interpretations 4. Tha Iranian won't stop @ murdering his own brothers as he murders the Israelis 5. I'm not interested in your explanations about the USSR, Germany, etc. 6. Not interested what happened in the Iranian/Iraqi war 7. The only way to stop the Iranian madmen is with power & lots of it 8. We are only interested OUR COUNTRY / FUTURE & could not care less about the mad Iranians or Hamas/ Hezbolla/etc., who want to throw us into the sea. 9. Besides, who is this El Baradei, issuing political statements? 10. What business does he have, as a head of the Nuclear agency, to stick his nose into our existence?

tiny israel wants to be a bully in the neighborhood, held above the law and no justice in Palestine.
43. #42 Israel a bully?? You're on drugs.
Scott ,   Australia   (05.17.09)
Just a you feel your opinion is supported by many - just remember mate that Israel is supported too - we wont let your kind dominate. Israel is NOT the bully.
44. A few misconceptions
ben Ish   (05.17.09)
It is not Ahmadinejad that is the threat. It is the Shah, who holds the reigns of power in Iran, and is the religious leader. Ahmadinejad is a politician (yes, I'm aware of his background); his concern is the same as all politicians: Pandering to his constituency. His anti-Israel remarks are rhetoric, to be taken with a grain (or kilo) of salt. The Shah is another matter. He has the reigns of power, and as a leading cleric, he must force Islam on the rest of the world any way that he can. There are more dangerous people than Ahmadinejad. Much more. Secondly, North Korea is a CONFIRMED nuclear proliferator. Iranian involvement is confirmed as well. Remember, just because terrorists are failures 90% of the time does not mean there is no threat. So, Iran is an economic and military failure, but that DOES NOT mean they cannot or will not eventually succeed with their bomb. We only have to be wrong about this ONCE. Thirdly, Iran is NOT going to hand over the jewel of their military might to a mob like Hamas or Hezbollah. The nuke will be delivered ONLY by a Shahab missile. That's why they spend 10x the amount on missiles than proxy terrorism. Iran will continue to work with North Korea on missiles and nukes. No amount of sanctions or talk will change any of this. Both countries want ICBMS and nukes. Both countries have 3 stage missiles capable of 800kg payload. The most recent missile launches by DPRK and Iran were NOT failures. These were consistent with a downrange aerial burst scenario, and for this, were entirely successful. The only conclusion we can make from that is the nuclear weapons development is progressing exactly as expected.
45. #38 - I don't blame Rabbi Yeshua
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (05.17.09)
eespecially if you are referring to the real Rabbi Yeshua that was killed along with the 800 (Parush) on Shavu'ot by Alexander Genyus 3675. Although a great man and advocate for the meek (those you condemn as sinners) he was not Moshaiach , because (primarily) he was not a descendant of Dovid HaMelech. The "Jesus" you pay homage to or indeed "worship" was a Persian human of "the flesh" - that was a conscript in the Roman Army, Whose knowledge of the "Province = Galilee" was leveraged/utilized by self installed Roman authorities to shape and mold the spiritual practices of the Jewish populace into a more malleable, palatable, acceptable and profitable form for Caesar and the Roman Senate. The problem of worshiping "human of the flesh" is the nullification of the descent of mankind and the fall from "Gan Eden" What Humans did and "still do" when "away from" or separated from the temple is become obsessed with reward "Lizkhot". What greater reward is there then to act as surrogate "Judge, Jury and executioner" to an absentee deity? This lofty reward, this ever inflating lust for elevation over others, is indeed the greatest opiate and is the "chariot" of decent. It, this "avarice of the flesh" can be witnessed on the pyramidum the "Ben Benet" atop pharoah's pyramid and on you relished American Dollar it was displayed to the Jewish people by the first christian prophet Balaam Son of Beor.
