3. And this comes as a surprise?Tell you what, how about
Bad assed Jew. ,   United States   (07.29.11)
ending all US 'aid' to all muslim nations, especially the pals? The US dollar only keeps the conflict going. Let Iran sponsor and foot the entire bill and let US go home. No one mentions the Saudis and their part of financing terror, could it be due to Obama reverence for the kingie?
4. Iran-Qaeda?
juan solana ,   san diego, USA   (07.29.11)
Come on, you think all people are stupid?... nothing farther from the truth..
5. Gee! Tell us something we don't know.
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (07.29.11)
Iranians have been working with black market forever. Iran is the best place to move cash. That's how most merchants make living there. .... hello!
6. So Wat Obama Banana ????
ROSENVALD ,   BRASIL   (07.29.11)
What the worst president will do against IrĂ£n ??? Until now, nothing.
7. #3 Bad assed Jew. clinton threaten to veto the cutting bill.
mary of Bethany ,   singapore   (07.29.11)
it's all futile. clinton is threatening to veto the Bill to cut funding to arab nations like Egypt, PA... you Americans now only have one chance, seize the coming election for 2012 to be better. the Oil-rich arab nations should be funding their own brothers, not the 14 trillions debts owing US (which in many of their eyes are infidels that deserve death).
8. An alliance of conveniance
Joe ,   Canada   (07.29.11)
There is no real chemistry between the hegemony seeking Iranian Shiites & the no less violent Sunni al-Qaeda. If they are conspiring at this time for their survival against their common ennemy, it is not out of deep sympathy for each other. The bloody massacres al-Qaeda executes in Irak are a reminder of their true feelings towards their Shiite "brothers".
9. And so it begins.
John Prophet   (07.29.11)
A causa belli for neutralizing Iranian attempts to control the Middle East!
10. iran and al qaeda
joel ,   usa   (07.29.11)
well, this deal ahs been going on after the fall of saddam h., its no surprise to everyone? but the question, how are they going to be stopped if israel will not act since only israel can do it?
11. Obama = words words words. If
DT ,   TA Israel   (07.29.11)
ever there was a political eunoch it is the US Pres when strong action is needed. The US is a total non entity and the terrorists and Iran know it.
12. Iran linked to Al-Qaeda, just like Iraq proved to have WMD
Alex   (07.29.11)
The Americans are having a laugh at the world
13. The US would be first to know
LebanonPride ,   Canada   (07.29.11)
Since the CIA and Al Qaida have a "special" relationship.... Al Qaida's leaders are all former CIA agents, after all.
14. #13 Lebanon Pride
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (07.29.11)
How old are you? Do you belive in Santa Claus too? This site gets funnier by day.
15. Stupid, stupid, stupid...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.29.11)
The U.S created Al Qaeda when Al Qaeda was fighting the Russians in Afghanistan .. At the time, the U.S described Al Qaeda as a group of heroic freedom fighters, so what changed now?
16. #14 Iranian Jew
(07.29.11)
Grow up idiot... What LebanonPride said is a fact. Educate yourself because you are beginning to sound like an idiotic fool...
17. Al Qaeda and Iran are bitter enemies...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.29.11)
A l Qaeda declared Holly War on Iran before they did against anyone else. As a matter of fact, Al Qaeda assassinated all Iranian diplomats in Kabul before 9/1... I suggest that we in Israel choose between two evils. We can either support Iran or support Al Qaeda. The choice should be easy since Al Qaeda never threatened to wipe Israel off the map...
18. ONE MORE EXCUSE............................
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (07.29.11)
Of justifying requesting Iraq to allow troops to remain beyond 2011.This allegation sounds very low indeed.And even if were to be true,why would Iran not see what is to its own 'national interest'.So many times we read the the same about national interest by USA,don't we?
19. # 17 Off the planet
Robert ,   Brisbane, Australia   (07.29.11)
" Al Qaeda never threatened to wipe Israel off the map... " Neither did Iran. This is an invention by paranoid Israelis who aren't satisfied unless they have an enemy to besmirch.
20. WELL SAID,ROBERT.........#19
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (07.29.11)
21. #19: Exactly
LebanonPride ,   Canada   (07.29.11)
Ahmadenijad didn't even use the word "map" in this misquote.
22. Secret?
Robert ,   Brisbane, Australia   (07.30.11)
If it's secret how do they know?
23. to nr. 15.
cosmopolitist ,   global-municipality   (07.30.11)
there is a core of thruth in your talkback, i thought. osama bin laden and al-quaida were first supported by the reagan and george bush sr. us-administrations in afghanistan in the war against the russian army and their afghan allies. the same us-administrations also supported/sponsored saddam huseyn and his dictatorship in their war against iran. and george bush jr. and his administration asserted that their was a connection/relationship between the iraqi, saddam huseyn regime and osama bin laden and his al-quaida. the islam-world is also (very) diverse/complex, like for instance; judaism, christianity etc.
24. to nr. 17.
cosmopolitist ,   global-municipality   (07.30.11)
al-queida are sunni islamists. iran has a population whith a shyite islam majority.
