So what is the 'direct link' between N. Korea and Iran? Other than being part of Bush's puerile 'axis of evil'. This is the same tired argument we heard over Iraq. And Hamas for that matter. And then all the killing and destruction was done by the 'peaceful' nations i.e. the US and Israel. The US seems to have got over its bibotry and right wing status. Israel seems to be slipping further and further into its. Dismantle the huge open prison / ghetto on your border and release the hundreds of people held without trial. Then you can join the league of civilised nations. Until then don't drag us into any more of your wars

charge across the 17th parallel, maybe someone in Washington will sit up and take notice. The United States military, after all, is rather heavily deployed in South Korea, especially along the DMZ. Don't discount China for a pre-emptive strike, either. Contrary to popular belief, China is not the sole "trading partner" of North Korea. It's all a one-way street, out of China into North Korea, and I would characterize it as a "charitable case." Which China's economy can ill afford to maintain.

many indications in the Bible that that is when the last days of Gentile world rule started. Zephaniah speaks of the towers falling and the mighty men walking in thick darkness, as happened to the WTC towers and the cloud of smoke that followed. Gold and silver were poured out into the streets as the gold and silver reserves stored there were dissipated. When Samson brought down the Dagon Temple by pushing apart two columns that supported the Temple, about 3,000 people died. When the world trade center principle towers were destroyed, about 3,000 people died. If 9/11 was a call to repentence, I wish to say that many people who are sinners do not realize it because they do not know God's standards that His people are to follow. Rabbi Yeshua said in Luke 16:18 of the Hebraic Roots Version Bible that "Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and everyone who marries a divorced woman, commits adultery." There are untold numbers of adulterous marriages that are producing manzer children that need to be repented of. Even breaking an engagement to marry is as serious to the Lord as a divorce since Joseph the Carpenter wanted to put Mary away privately or she would have been stoned to death for causing the breaking of an engagement by her pregnancy. The Bible says that if the people who are called by God's name will stop sinning, God will heal the land. Adulterous marriages are a great sin among God's people. Abortion and homosexuality and perjury and other sins must stop among the people of God for God to heal the land. Denying the faith by not providing for one's own is another great sin of the people.

THE JEWS MADE WRONG. THE JEWS DESERVED A FINAL. THE JEWS WILL HAVE IT. SOON OR LATER the time is never known.

No other country behaves the way Israel does. And Israel has a huge arsenal of nuclear weapons which the article conveniently ignores. No other country bombs and kills citizens of its neighbouring country. Not only that it bombs the United Nations. The real threat to the world is Israel.

Eitan, according to your rationale, we should all leave our settlements and move into a one room apartment in Tel Aviv to assist the yanks to declare war on North Korea? So, what else is new? Nice try! After thought: Where do we then move to once Hamas takes over the central hill country a few kilometers above Tel Aviv and thanks you by sending constant reminders crashing into the narrow coastal strip. Whoops, I let realism slip into your equation. No your absolutely right... just stay still until your medicine arrives and cures you of hallucination.

Before that you need to Cry. The nations that will come against Israel will be crushed by the Almighty God of Israel. I think you are a Turk. Turkey also will be against Israel soon. Wait and see.

From the Stratfor Intelligencer: "Despite how frantic the pace of nuclear proliferation may seem at the moment, the true pace of the global nuclear dynamic is slowing profoundly. With the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty already effectively in place (though it has not been ratified), the pace of nuclear weapons development has already slowed and stabilized dramatically. The world’s current nuclear powers are reliant to some degree on the generation of weapons that were validated and certified before testing was banned. They are currently working toward weapons and force structures that will provide them with a stable, sustainable deterrent for the foreseeable future rooted largely in this pre-existing weapons architecture. New additions to the nuclear club are always cause for concern. But though North Korea’s nuclear program continues apace, it hardly threatens to shift underlying geopolitical realities. It may encourage the United States to retain a slightly larger arsenal to reassure Japan and South Korea about the credibility of its nuclear umbrella. It also could encourage Tokyo and Seoul to pursue their own weapons. But none of these shifts, though significant, is likely to alter the defining military, economic and political dynamics of the region fundamentally. Nuclear arms are better understood as an insurance policy, one that no potential aggressor has any intention of steering afoul of. Without practical military or political use, they remain held in reserve — where in all likelihood they will remain for the foreseeable future."

Your vitriol is very telling, and very unwarranted. Israel has been a nuclear power since the 1960s, and has yet to launch a single nuclear warhead. North Korea issued a very clear threat against South Korea and Japan, and the rhetoric coming out of Tehran since the Islamic revolution has consistently called for the destruction of the "Zionist entity" and the extermination of the Jewish people. Iraq has used chemical agents against the Kurds. The Palestinians brought terror to the world on a vast scale, and -- well, we all know about Al Qaeda. We have sabre-rattling from Venezuela. Most of the African continent is a field of sheer carnage. We have Christians being murdered by the score in Banda Ace, open violations of human rights in China, famine in North Korea, frightening violence in the Swat region in Pakistan and throughout the Hindu Kush. To name but a few. Yet you see Israel as the biggest threat to world peace and stability. Do you know what that makes you? Terminally stupid and uninformed.

BY ENEMIES THEY THEMSELVES MADE AND FROM THE INSIDE ABOUT TO EXPLODE WITH JIHAD FERVOR. ARMENIANS, KURDS, GREEKS, CYPRIOTS, ARABS, PERSIANS ARE ALL WAITING FOR THE IMMINENT DOWNFALL OF TURKEY TO DIVVY IT UP AMONG THEMSELVES

Mr. Haber writes like someone who suffers from chronic and severe indigestion. You may need to switch medications Mr. Haber to reduce the internal swelling because what's coming out of your mouth now is rather frightening and disgusting.

Let us not forget the America seeks world domination. DONT BELIEVE ME??? DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!!!!!!!!! go to a library. read up on the amero, the true EU intentions, iran and north korea could be the only countries left to save us.

Why don't you all stuff it!! You are blatant, pathogenic and rampamt antisemites who would like nothing better than to see the Jewish race disappear. Well many have tried & failed to do this, so I suggest you don't hold your collective breaths waiting for it to happen!!!!!!!!!!!

To poster #1... Didn't you hear about the nuclear reactor in Syria, bombed by Israel? It was set up by Iran, Syria and North Korea, wasn't it? How much of a link do you need?

Israel survived a FM as weak and deluded as Obama. Her name is Zippo Livni. What is needed is a world leader with an understanding of what is going on more in line with Yaalon, Netanyahu or Lieberman. Before Iran decides it might as well show the west it means business.

of your friends killings in Sudan, Gaza, Iraq, Afghanistan, Paquistan, Lebanon etc. as an act of mercy. You are so convincing !!!! You should venture a best-selling book on social-political analysis.

peter get youre facts striaght Israel never attacks ,we defend ourselfs like men not let others do it for us, you in new zealand have never had to fight a war for youre homeland so dont critize us. We know were we stand,surounded by arab staes that want to destroy us

Obama is obsessed with the peace process. He seems to think that every other problem in the world will go away with a peace treaty. Well now North Korea has been holding nuclear tests and there is a risk of war between the north & south. Maybe he will look up for just a minute and discover there are more important problems in the world that need his attention not this stupid peace process. Also if israels leaders can spin it right we can actually say to Obama do you want the next nuclear test to be carried out by Iran because unless you start considering other options to diplomacy thats going to happen and Iran will be the next country to tests a nuke. As soon as Obama stops thinking of himself as diplomatic superman the more progress we might make.

it is chines just testing obama.

JUST SEE WHO IS TALKING, WHAT I WANT EITAN HABER TO KNOW IS THAT ISREAL IS MORE CRAZY THAN THE COUNTRIES YOU CLAIMED ARE CRAZY.

While the world's set to incinerate itself we can now depend on new Talkbacker "just plain Jane" to set us all striaght with her invectives against Israel and the United States. As usual, antisemites and kneejerk liberals will always find a way to unthinkingly blame Israel.

Be prepared for the coming of the Messiah. The Prophecies are coming into fulfillment.

haber was wrong about war with norht korea, he is wrong about oslo, wrong about olmert, wrong about almost everything. One thing in his favour-he is an honest man as opposed to the man he supported,ehud olmert, a crook, liar and weakling who would sell out his mother and wife for a quick buck. he almost sold out the state of israel for nothing. If he is not indicted, then israel does not deserve to ever have peace.

ok israel did not bomb a UN hq, it was close by...the idf stormed the compound which was being held by terrorist...get your facts straight. furthermore, israel has the right to protect their citizens. however they do not use NUKES to do that. so this just goes to prove that israel is not part of the crazy lot...they do not go around threatning to wipe other races off the planet with their nukes. don't be ignorant.

Really? World War Three has started? Although the fact that N. Korea is resolved to maintain its right to threaten all of its neighbors, lets keep in mind that they have been doing so for quite a while, and they know the "comforting" idea behind nuclear proliferation - If we shoot them, we will also be completely destroyed. No one wants to do that. North Korea's problem is that their people are hungry and vulnerable while their leaders are power hungry. Very similar story, it seems, with Palestinians. I think that the leaders are shamefully failing their people, so they are trying to look like big strong heroes who will protect them from being taken under control by the enemy...Unfortunately, it is their own people who suffer most, but can't do anything about it without being killed.

Haber is such a clueless putz. WWIII began years ago, and all we are now discussing is the intensity of specific and individual battles that are being fought. No surprises here. Adon Haber appears always to be at the ass end of every issue. Trust him to miss the commencement of Israel's (and the world's) survival.

YOU ARE LOST IN YOUR OWN IGNORANCE. HOW IDIOTICALLY PATHETIC.

Ivory Coast and Upper Volta -- oops, Burkina Fasa. And you're worried about Israel? Idiot. Think again. Ivory Coast, huh? How do you feel about machete-wielding teenagers?
