1. The danger of nuclear arms and the Western democracies.
Ron B. ,   Lod   (04.03.10)
Governments are well aware that the ongoing nuclear arms race by totalitarian regimes in Tehran and Pyongyang is like a ticking time bomb. No street actions can be seen in Paris, Brussels or New York to demand that North Korea or Iran should be stopped in their illegal nuclear ambitions. The word indifference is a rather accurate word to describe the apathy in Western democracies. However, when it comes to nuclear arms, nothing is normal and every move can necessitate an urgent counter-move.

2. Sanctions = world and Iran milking the time
Yaniv ,   Israel   (04.03.10)
3. We have to ignore Obama
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (04.03.10)
Bibi needs to bite the bullet and order the attack this June or July. Even if there are sanctions they will be very weak and meaningless.
4. Good to have deterrence to Jewish nukes in Mideast
Casey ,   Dallas, USA   (04.03.10)
As Jewish arsenal of nukes and WMD can wipe off Iran & Europe in seconds, all countries have right to have their own defense in the face of Jewish threat or any other threat
5. The aroma of nuclear 9/11 is rife...
Joey Rose ,   Portland   (04.03.10)
and to that there really is no military solution.
6. We know this, but what we need to know
Ken ,   Australia   (04.03.10)
So whats new about it, we have known this for a long time. A neuclear weapon we have also known about, whilst they laugh in the faces of the whole world , nobody does anything and we are now faced with the reality that these homocidal maniacs will aquire a neuc -bomb quite soon. Does the world really realize what this means according to muslim beleif about the new world. Or especially about the twisted thinking about it, by muslims of iranian decent, its the ultimate weapon they have been trying to get since the time of the medes and there time is here now. If this is the case what do you think they have been p[lanning for 3,000 years. So what are they going to do with it once they have it. Its quite obvious, its for the purpose of incinerateing the new world. Whilst they get a free trip to mecca, go figure.

US has hands full from afganistan war which cannot be won and iraq. Obama while competitive on the basketball court appears to be reluctant and passive ever since the russian invasion of georgia.Also he is definitely a moslem sympathizer. To appeal to the moslem world is one thing, to kiss their ass and bow to saudi king is another. He is advocating against israel which would make negotiations much harder as israel would be ganged up. It looks like jimmy carter all over again as he was one of the weakest presidents ever. Now george bush was no so much weak as he was doctrinaire and dumb. republican millionaires of course are against a national health plan. They can afford to be. Americans cannot afford to be. Israel and england are the 2 allies US has to have along with australia and canada as europe are a bunch of gutless cowards and turkey is now a yasser arafat republic. So obama denigrates israel and gives england the could shoulder by siding with argentina. Clinton is a disaster as a candidate and likewise as secretary of state, who other countries like turkey, russia, north korea have told to go to hell.So he beats up on israel and bibi takes it. go figure.

The key word in your post is *defense*. I don't read about the leadership of Israel talking about how other countries must be "wiped off the map". I do read about the Iranian leadership howling about Zionism and how Israel will soon be a thing of the past. I do read about Israeli leaders and citizens mulling a preventative military strike. But there is a far cry between preventative strike and "wiping off the map". Iraq and Syria were not wiped off the map in 1981 and 2007, respectively, when Israel bombed their nuclear facilities. I read about Western self-described intellectuals mooing like cows that Israel is the cause of most or all the friction between Islam and the West, and that Israel should be the sacrificial goat to appease Islam. I see no "Jewish threat". I do see Jews being asked to pay for the changing whims and fashions of citizens of Western culture. For 1800 years Jews were called Christ-killers and forced to live in ghettos. Then Protestants decide it would be fun to embrace Zionism for a while in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Then they change their minds and decide Jews must be considered part of European culture for the purposes of apologizing for trying to colonize the rest of the world for the past few centuries. If there is any threat, it is the threat from the shifting alliances of irresponsible Western self-described intellectuals.

Israel is surrounded by hostile regimes that want to eliminate it. Have you ever once heard Israel threaten the use of nuclear weapons? The US has nuclear weapons. No threats from the US either. I guess your mentality is along the line of Iran's mullahs. It would be nice for you to pick up and move there to enjoy their mentality and lifestyle.

Dave ,   Bs.Aires-Argentina   (04.03.10)
Sir, as an Argentinian Citizen, and a Zionist Jew too, I wish to ask you: What is your problem with Argentina? and Why are you defending the U.K.? First of all, keep in mind that the U.K. has stolen the Malvinas Island from my country, Argentina, in 1833, by force, without any rigth to do so. So far, despite several resolutions of the UN, they don't wish to negotiate this blatant case of robbery. And what about Jordan?, they stole this large piece of land from the Mandate Territories, to give it as a gift to the Hashemites, instead to partition it to the Arabs and Jews. They also prevent the Jews from disembarking in the Holy Land in the midst of the WWII, sending our brothers to die in the Holocaust, or to drown in the sea. There are a lot more of this acts of piracy from the British Empire. It´s a very long list indeed... Also, we, the Argentinian Citizens, have been hit TWICE here in Buenos Aires, by the coward ISLAMIC TERRORISM of HEZBOLLA, with the support of IRAN, killing and maiming more than two hundred of innocent people, not only Jews but Christians, and Muslims too, among of them a relative of mine. As a matter of fact, our Government has asked the Iranians to extradite the suspects of this crime, without any success so far. Please Sir , again, if you can, answer my two questions- First: What is your problem with Argentina ? Second : Why are you defendind the Britons? Respectfully
11. You guys are totally insane !
michael mazur ,   brunswick   (04.04.10)
#4 is the only one here not a sociopath, as it's clear the rest of you don't care that tens of millions of totally innocent people of Iran will be murdered in this, just for jewish amusement, because you jews know that Iran has not even one nuke, and that even if it had 10 or a 100, would not risk instant incineration by USrael with thousands of nukes at it's disposal. Seriously, you jews who want this are no longer jews, just absolutely insane jewfucks, worthy only of contempt, and don't even belong on this planet, you don't even care that ww3 could come of this, and it seems you are prepared to risk the incineration of your own country just so you can watch hundreds of millions being incinerated all over the world. Think i'm being rude to you ? Just wait for afterwards, if there is an afterwards, for the whole world will despise you far more than they despise the Church right now, and they'll be doing far worse to you than what i've merely said of you.

Martin Van-Crevel has already been saying that Israel's nuclear weapons are targeting Europe.On Israeli radio he stated 'We Could Destroy All European Capitals" '"Defense"? LOL He lectures at Israels military colleges, so hard to dismiss as a lone nut. Your diversionary diatribe is nonsense. Israel is not the poor little miss-understood child you try to make her out to be. The state was started by terrorists(stern gang) now you complain about terrorists. You get nuclear weapons and now you complain about others trying to acquire them. It is point counter-point. Look around the world there is always nuclear apposing nuclear, it is the only determent on the weapons race.
13. Nonsense
Dr. Richard Welser ,   Morganton, USA   (04.04.10)
This article is completely unsourced. Thus, it should be regarded as disinfo at worst or at best, simply bullpockey imaginings from the -- you put the name here.
14. FUTILE MOVES
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (04.04.10)
To attempt stopping Iran from acquiring what it needs.All companiesdealing with Iran,be the Americans or others have a common denominator...................money!!By the time present probe is completed some more items will have reached Iran.Probably the cost of these probes will lead IAEA into bankruptsy.
15. Fool me once
Argonne18 ,   Los Angeles USA   (04.04.10)
Maybe Obama can get Colin Powell to spew this horse%$# to the UN......again. Notice there are no source attributions in this at all. By the way, doesn't Israel have hundreds of nukes, uninspected.
16. What's good for the goose...
Scott Smith ,   Weakbeer, Utah, USA   (04.04.10)
...is good for the gander! Israel is the problem, not Iran. Israel has nukes, isn't a signatory of the nuclear NPT and won't allow IAEA inspector into their facilities. Isreal has also shown that it has no problem attacking it's neighbors with little to no and, sometimes false, provacation. Iran, on the other hand, has complied with all of the requests of the IAEA and is a signatory of the nuclear NPT. Iran hasn't attacked any of it's neighbors in over 100 years. Israel wants to wipe Iran off of the map, not the other way around. Israel doesn't want to spill any Israeli blood doing it though. However, they have no problem with American soldiers being killed for their cause. The US needs to stop supporting Israel. Israel is the Rouge state in the Middle East, not Iran.
17. Bad Iran
robertsgt40 ,   san antonio tx usa   (04.06.10)
In all this verage I saw not one name or evidence. Israel sits on 300 nukes and is not a signatory of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty. Now, who is the bad guy here? Oh, by the way Iraq had WMDs. I assume your source for these are connected. Just go ahead and invade. Why stop the US/Israel war machine now?
