1. actions vs. words
ben Ish   (04.27.10)
This is pure propaganda. They know that nothing will -ever- come of any statements like this, because that is all they are. A bunch of talk designed to make YOU think they are opposed to Iranian nukes. But they are 100% in favor of Iranian nukes. Even if they propose action in the UNSC, Russia and China will veto it, so they will still have credibility. That is TALK. What they have actually DONE is: 1) Refuse every single Israeli arms purchase. 2) OK every Arab arms purchase. 3) Gave a listening spot to Hizbullah in the UNSC 4) When they discovered a secret nuclear facility in Qom, they released an intelligence report that claimed Iran abandoned the program years before. 5) Obama bowed to the Saudi's and snubbed Bibi. 6) He refers the Koran as "holy" while he mocks the bible. 7) He demands Jews stop building in their own homes, while ignoring the fact that rockets have -never- stopped. Which do you believe? This man Obama, is an existential threat not only to Israel, but to the entire world. He throws petrol on the fire of anti-Israeli sentiment throughout the entire Muslim world, and foments racism on a daily basis. What do you -think- this is going to lead to?
2. "Tough" sanctions
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (04.27.10)
You mean, like a boycott on Iranian pistachios?
3. Yeah, right
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.27.10)
Oh, I have a problem with Hussain Obama's credibility, and Hilary Clinton HAS no credibility. Tough sanctions on Iran? Yesterday, Hussain Obama announced that the United States was determined to pursue closer ties with the Islamofascist world. So, which is it? Does Hussain Obama realize that no one believes a single word he says? And Madame Secretary of State? Hey, I'm a lawyer and I remember Whitewater.

5. carpets are the key, #2
Cameron ,   USA   (04.27.10)
A glut of nuts would hurt them, but the true key to breaking Persian ambition lies in the potential ban on the export of carpets. Every nation has it's truly vulnerable point.
6. :: This is the pay off
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (04.27.10)
Bibi commits himself to: A real construction freeze in E Jerusalem and the WB Removal of minor illegal outposts and checkpoints A slow withdrawal of IDF soldiers in the WB Greater autonomy to the PA and direct control over more of the WB Resumption of Peace talks In return the US will stand firm with Israel and demand ‘harsh’ sanctions against Iran. Anyone think Bibi got a bad deal? Heck I wouldn’t be surprised if Bibi isn’t lined up to lay a wreath on Arafat’s tomb as a ‘goodwill gesture’.
7. Tough Sanctions Crap
Brod ,   USA   (04.27.10)
Tough sanctions is a code word for giving ample time to the fanatical Ayatollahs to complete their nukes. It is more of a joke. The Islamist-Jihadist countries will not honor it. They will continue to supply the fanatics in Iran with all the materials they need to work on their nukes. Russia, China and N. Korea will turn a blind eye to it. So, don't be fooled by the tough sanction talk.
8. No.1 - it is as You say...
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (04.27.10)
Hussein Obama and his gang are in 100% favor of Iranian nukes -the scandalous talk of sanctions is a smokescreen for the idiots who will never be able to see the truth...until it is too late...
9. madame Secretary of State
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (04.28.10)
Not so long ago, the man from Java ruined Your political career and now You are executing the policies of this genius, You are helping him to betray Israel and to undermine Americas security. How does it feel, to be the servant of a lunatic.....?
10. Empty "sanctions" talk - again?
Sue ,   Los Angeles   (04.28.10)
Obama is president 1 1/2 years and still no sanctions. Just empty talk. It is becoming a big joke. I would laugh if it weren't so tragic.
11. Only empty words
Ariel New Zealand   (04.28.10)
The same old saying for the last three years
12. YES,YOU SOUND LIKE ONE SARAH.....#3
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (04.28.10)
But don't act like one.One wonders what you expect of Obama and Hilary Clinton to do that will make you happy.If it means attacking Iran,forget it.You are on your own or else the entire Middle East will burn.
13. to No.3, Sarah...by the way
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (04.28.10)
