1. SAUDIS WILL DARE NOT
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (09.30.09)
Allow IAF to use its airspace.These types of articles are meant to see what sort of Iranian response they get.Very correctly,Iran,refrained from commenting on the issue altogether,knowing very well where the article originated and the game behind it. Practically,Saudi would dare not allow anything even in future knowing bloody well that Iran's retaliation will be swift and devastating even if the American Navy doubles its presence in the Persian Gulf(not Arabian Gulf:)
2. What is the truth?..Ref. "Suni, Shia Hatred

" so bibi' crying.... israel instead has agreed to allow UN inspectors into nuke camp of dimona, now bibi' smile...... oh sorry!!! i forget that israel is most moral community of the world. his bombs are for peace!!!!! MOST MORAL BETTER APARTHEID
4. Another article with no name source!
Jay3 ,   Israel   (09.30.09)
Come on already YNEt!!! This isnt professional journalism, at its least. How can you continually print stories with no clear sources. It seems these stories are from the same Israel hating journalists....but you still continue to use them!
5. this is the position they have to take politicially
zionist forever   (09.30.09)
Maybe they did and maybe they didn't this is the response they had to give. Bibi isn't going to do anything unless he gets Obamas permission thats one step of defiance to far but if he does get it then they US will have a quiet word in the ear of the saudis Israel will attack Iran which you want to see happen as well as Israel. As long as they don't officially warn you they are coming just don't shoot them down if you do detect them coming. Afterwards condemn Israel in the UN for image purposes saying it had no right to use your airspace.
6. well number 3...
adir ,   Israel   (09.30.09)
Israel had never thereaten to use this weapon on other country unlike iran who threaten daily to destroy Israel. if iran wasnt threaten on Israel belive me no one would make such a big deal from the nuclear plants in iran. but since they are Israel is tring to stop it without using violance beacue yes they are the most human country on the area and they prefer talking a solution then using her deadly force. Israel will use its nuclear weapons and her more powerfull weapon only in a case of last resort to strike and bring down anyone who dare to attack her with nuclears(a message to iran) iran nuclears will destroy iran we dont even need to air bomb it.
7. Forget about the Saudis
Brod ,   USA   (09.30.09)
Saudi thugs attacked America and butchered 3000 Americans in cold blood on 9/11. Saudi Arabia is the Chief Sponsor of Islamist-Jihadist terrorism around the world! Israel should not have any dealings with them. There is no divide between the Wahhabhists and the Ayatollahists. They are one and the same. They worship the same Koranic god that teaches its adherents to kill Jews and Christians. They have the same goal of crusading their Jihadism to the world by subduing, dominating and islamizing the non-Islamist world. As former Professor of Quranic Interpretations at Al Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt, Omar Abdel Rahman, points out, "There is no surah called 'Peace.' Jihad and killing are the head of Islam. If you take them out, you cut off the head of Islam." (p.24, "Islam and Terrorism" [2002] by Mark A. Gabriel, PhD) Israel should not be fooled by the dark forces.
8. Pro or Anti "Iran" after the event?
Roland Seener ,   London England   (09.30.09)
9. IRAN HAS NOT LAGGED BEHIND.......#5
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (09.30.09)
In keeping itself updated on every aircraft movements for the last 3 years.Do not imagine that the number of minutes it would take IAF to cross the Saudi airspace will go unnoticed by the Iranians.They have their own listening posts already organised long time back. further, the response from Iranians for this courtesy extended to IAF may not be very mild.Things will go boom!!!Oilfields in Saudia will only remain in form of black soot.
10. Saudi's...We hate those Jews...Why would we help them?
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (09.30.09)
We can't wait for the nukes to drop! Enough said. Can't help something you don't consider human. Of course they call us Khaffers also. But they will sell us oil. Economics you know.
11. Arm chair Mahmood speaks again.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (09.30.09)
Boo Boo Mamoo speaks for the Iranians . Yogi Bear will not help those damn Jews. The woods have to many Jews.....and the Iranians would have nothing left to hunt and bitch, about if they suddenly disappeared. You go Boo Boo. Build a rocket....You mad scientist.

Sarah B ,   New York / Saviyon   (09.30.09)
As always, Mahmood, you are wrong. Do you think the Saudis haven't noticed the persistent attempts made by Iran to destabilize the Kingdom? Oh, they have. You see, Iran's oil reserves are quite finite. The Saudi oil reserves are infinite. That's why Iran has designs on the Kingdom, and the Saudis know it. Face it -- Iran is for the dung heap of history. Sooner, rather than later. No great loss there, actually.
13. Saudis: We did not agree to help Israel strike in Iran

For the politicians and people that do not understand why Iran is such a serious threat to the entire world, follow in sequence: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wgDXOMAx5A&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7Cqp3crBto&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLjVv3TkRXs&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNoRkZZruu8&feature=related
14. SARAH COMES TO RESCUE.......#12
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (09.30.09)
But not to me.Whilst the article is referring to a possibility of Saudi giving airspace to IAF, you are rendering abuses to a country.Stick to the point,Sarah.Saudi will dare not allow Israeli Airforce to utilise their airspace.Get that and get it right.Anything on that score,SarahBBBBB!!!!!

Sarah B ,   New York / Saviyon   (09.30.09)
Sorry -- your post is more incoherent than usual. You have absolutely no idea what you are babbling about -- I know, I know -- what else is new?

Yesterdy as a finally to their set of war games they have been holding they held a public display of a flypast by some fighter jets and their only AWACS. One of the fighters crashed into the AWACS and both planes went down. That AWACS was a very important part of Irans air detection systems if they wanted to detect Israeli aircraft. Israel also has more than just jets. It has UAVS that can loiter in Iranian airspace bellow radar for hours and when Israel is ready to attack these thing can be programed to go and basicly go become a missile and destroy Irans radars. It wouldn\t help for trying to carry out the initial attack but without radar they would have a hard time intercepting Israeli jets Israel has Jericho 3 balistic missiles which can hit all the Middle East & Europe, Australia, parts of north and south America and many other countries and these missiles can carry either a nuclear warhead or at the very least a very powerfull conventional warhead. It has 3 submarines which can fire cruise missiles. What would Iran do if Israel launched a mullti pronged attack? Iran is well defended yes but that doesn't make it impossible to hit them and get away with it.
