Oleg ,   USA   (02.06.12)
Very easy, start produce oil in US and open Canadian oil pipe to US. This will push prices down, we won't depend on arabas, russians will be punished for their stupidity; ordinary people win!

zivron   (02.06.12)
The immense danger of iran with nuclear weapons and also pakistan makes them targets for catatrophic barbaric attacks which ought be prevented for the sake of humanity.

leo ,   usa   (02.06.12)
approving Keystone pipe line is much, much better. . It will take care of Iran, Arabs, and Russia in "one fell swoop" as you like to say it.
8. i've never seen any country to be cheeky as america!!!!!!
saied   (02.06.12)
America,it is better for you to change and revise your behavior and you state regret for all the things that you've done unto iranian people.obama,i don't know which religion you have??,but according to all of religions,annoying humans by means of sanctions,is the ugliest and the most forbidden act.

Miguel ,   San Diego, USA   (02.06.12)
Yes, that must be the "thou shalt not annoy by way of sanctions" commandment so often overlooked by the rest of us. Thanks for the reminder.
10. #3 What do you know about Israeli or Jews?

john Darren ,   cairns-Australia   (02.07.12)
For instance grateful to people like you.What kind of response did you expect by your "kind" post on a Jewish site.Why post here at all.
12. Sanctions don't work on maniacs
RC ,   USA   (02.07.12)
Sanctions do not work on religious fanatics who think they are going to heaven if they kill in the name of allah. The Iranian leaders have announced publicly that their intent is to exterminate the Jews. Making concessions to the Palestinians is not going to help either because Muslims think all of Israel was Muslim land and they will not stop threatening and attacking until they reclaim it all. Peace is only temporary, that has been proven. Most people around the world, especially the liberals just refuse to see the facts. You have to be really foolish to not understand that Muslim extremists mean it when they say they want Israel and the West destroyed. Check out the article on Iran calling for the genocide of the Jews at IsraelNationalNews.com (ArutsSheva7) Iran: Genocide a Moral Obligation

Birdi ,   Israel   (02.07.12)
Do you know why there are sanctions against Iran? Your post implies that you havent got the foggiest idea.
15. Plantation policy, close the barn door after horses gone.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (02.07.12)
16. It's war that Israel is longing for...
Persian CAT   (02.07.12)
but for some reason Israel is left out in cold crying wolf. How come no one takes Israel seriously? Is it because people know you guys much better than you think? That must be it.
17. #16 Cat, it's good to know that Iran's...
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (02.07.12)
constant and incessant war exercises aren't because they're sweating beads over an Israeli attack.

22. WW3
Truth ,   Oxford, UK   (02.07.12)
This is 1939 all over again! Zionist Occupied USA, UK and Israel are Nazi Germany and the axis. This time Russia and China are the allies standing up to Zionist fascism. Syria and Iran are the equivalent to 1939 Poland. If NATO(Nazi Axis) attack Iran or Syria(Poland) World War 3(WW2) will erupt.
23. United States thinks Israel expendable
Wally ,   USA   (02.08.12)
United States will strand Israel and leave you to fight by yourself if a war breaks out with Iran.
