1. Oh, sanctions have worked just swimmingly, haven't they?
(08.26.09)
Einstein once said something about doing more of the same while expecting different results- it says a lot about the current state of political affairs in the West. If Iran hasn't buckled to previous rounds of "severe" sanctions, what on earth makes Sarkozy and Obama think Iran will respond differently to this new round of "severe" sanctions? This is what happens when ideologues take power- because they are always right, there's no way they can be wrong, even when they fail miserably...
2. Words versus deeds
Nora ,   Tel Aviv   (08.26.09)
The West has become powerless when dealing with Iran. Western leaders use only words against the deeds of Iran.

Gil ,   Sarasota, FL   (08.27.09)
Do you really trust France with that? I don't. I'd leave those type of missions to Israel. Anyone else is sure to mess things up!
10. Believing Iran and the West
DT ,   TA Israel   (08.27.09)
Whether they do or not is of little consequence as the West are incapable of doing anything except more sanctions which are totally useless and neither Russia nor China will go along with it

Atilla Karagözoğlu   (08.27.09)
Iranian people must love to have democracy as the west. BUT ! BUT MY FRIENDS ! I AM SURE THAT MOST IRANIANS TRULY HATE OF ISRAEL, AMERICA & THE WEST. The west and israel and america never left Iran alone. always play. always deep politics. *** I LOVE TO SEE IRAN HAPPY. HAPPY. I MEAN TRULY HAPPY. MAYBE THEY ARE MUCH HAPPY THAN MOST OF US. ANYWAY, IRAN HAS A WORLD WIDE STAND. I MUST SUPPORT IRAN FOR BETTER WORLD.
14. Put your money where your mouth is

Stop buying gas and oil from Iran. There are many other sources to buy from. You need not wait for a UN or US group sanction. Iran has no intention of cooperating with the west.
