3. Blind Imbecilles !!!.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (03.16.12)
The Resolve of Iran is as strong as Al-Quedas, none of them will give in. Islam does not bow to anything, it will fight to the very Death. In your Idiocy of hesitation, you will only make Iran stronger, and the cost to stop them will only increase. You are loosers. Arn.Sweden.
4. the British care only about the U K RIGHT ???
M.S. ,   mpls america   (03.16.12)
With all due respect for the British prime minister Cameroon it is no doubt simple to tell Israel no not to take any military action the U K is hardly a target after 9 11 though the world sees if the simpliest Arabs may strike any where given money which Osama Ben Layden had has Iran well may be sane may be crazy hard to tell and so time alone will tell us what may hapen in the future but no doubt 2012 may be a turning point year for world politicial military moves decisions action personaly I think Israel should intervene in Syria but then my own weak voice is no not heard in the top circles of my own race people because I am but a poor old Jew living in America up on senior welfare any way the U K is far from perfect far from being what it thinks it is a internationial police for the common good with America to me they are Western terrorists RIGHT ??? Thank You... M. S.

Cameron is a moron

Bibi isn't buying it.
7. Neville Chamberlains son walks the streets again.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (03.16.12)
No...I'm wrong....his head is in the sand like an Ostrich again. If there is a golf hole anywhere around Barack Obama or the British Leader......their heads always deploy into the empty vacuum. Such is the Plight of Israel and Israeli's. No action...is the reaction....of the United States and Great Britain.
8. EVERYTHING CAMERON TOUCHES
DA URBAN POET ,   SAFED OPERA HOUSE   (03.16.12)
Turns to shit ,so best he keep his stupid upper-class mouth firmly shut.
9. Cameron sais.....
tiki ,   belgium   (03.16.12)
The man is entitled to his opinion. So is Israel. Camaron should worry about Falkland and let Israel worry about Iran, Hizbollah, Egypt, Hamas, PA & the rest of the International Hate Orchestra.
10. He is trying to please Obama
Ted   (03.16.12)
11. After non stop talk with obama
jeff ,   Beverly Hills, CA   (03.16.12)
this is the final result, once again he pleases obama with his statements. the world is one big anti semite group it seems, just like during WWII
12. So, this what Obama told the prime minister to pronounce...?
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (03.16.12)
The man who keeps claiming that the US's commitment to Israel's security is "unshakable" - and does so before elections, of course - certainly "shakes off" his responsibility!! This is Obama, speaking through the prime minister of the UK of course!!
13. I think he is trying to say that the USA and
Israeli 2   (03.16.12)
Britain will take care of Iran. Take Care, mind you...like a baby in their arms.

liz   (03.16.12)
world that just America.. Britain, USA ands Israel foil terror plots all them time...
15. Nice picture of...
Chaim ,   Arad   (03.16.12)
Frick and Frack deciding Israel's future. Yes, let's sanction more by refusing gleeda (ice cream) to Iran. I would like to invite the two cowards in the picture to come, live in Israel for about six months. We will gladly provide a house for you. You know, move you around Israel so you can get the real feel of our neighbors on the borders.
16. Cameron and Obama are two peas in a pod. They want to
Rivkah   (03.16.12)
destroy their own countries and I have to wonder if they are paid to do so (of course they are). Obama is bankrupting the USA and Cameron is putting British tanks into Germany for storage as if the Fouth Reich rising is a friend to Britain. What jerks. What absolute jerks. The only people in Britain and America who are stupider are the people who voted for them.
17. Cameron = Chamberlain...=rotten bastard !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (03.16.12)
18. #12... Basketball Buddies
Robert ,   USA   (03.16.12)
I don't know how many of these comments came from people who watched the opening games of the US college basketball tournament, "March Madness" we call it, but Obama and Cameron were there watching the game together in casual clothes and eating hot dogs. It is easy to imagine from their being "buddies" that the subject of Iran and Israel came up often, and easy to imagine that they both are in agreement about what to do. If Israel waits until after the US presidential elections (November 6, 2012) and Obama wins, DO NOT EXPECT HIM OR THE UK to support Israel against Iran. It is possible that Iran may give up her military focus on nuclear weapons, but more likely that they will want to reach the "break out" phase before they do, the "red line" for Israel. Israel's leaders must decide whether they can go it alone after the elections -- or risk international blame BUT WITH INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT for an attack before sanctions have caused Iran to stop their move toward nuclear weapons.
19. Cameron
Lucky ,   USA   (03.16.12)
Cameron want to please Islam because of the security concern in the coming London Olympic games.
20. Bibi isn't convincing many, is he?
r cummings ,   london UK   (03.16.12)
No political or military leader in the West is so far buying Bibi's daily clamour for an attack on Iran. You have to wonder why. The bottom line is that nobody believes Iran will attack anyone, because it would be suicidal. (Israel's constant mistranslations of what Iran says fool only those in Israel). Netanyahu is using Iran as a diversion from Palestine and as a domestic vote-winner, but neither wins any votes outside israel. The world is not going to go and smite Iran prematurely just so that Israel can retain nuclear hegemony over the Middle east and Netanyahu can win votes from the nationalist fringe. There is another reason israel is getting the cold shoulder - it goes against the grain being told what to do continually by this small and peripheral country called Israel and its oleaginous political leader, whose main claims to fame are ignoring UN and ICJ resolutions and running a racially-motivated and illegal Jewish land-theft business on occupied territory. Bibi is not an Israeli asset.
21. Typical
Stephen ,   Uk   (03.16.12)
Being British I can tell you that this is typical British stiff upper lip posturing. It's also not Cameron's decision. It's Hussein Obama's .. Cameron is just obeying orders. The UK wil dilly dally all day long when security issues concern others and the UK's history re Israel is pitiful - after all they causes the Palestinian mess in the first place! Cameron should grow a pair and make up for his predecessors anti israel prejudices and mistakes. Come on Dave - be a bull dog and not a poodle!
22. Too The Stiff Neck brit
(03.16.12)
Not Your Decision To Make Shabat Shalom/Baruch Hashem
23. I hate when these cowardly anti Zionists
jason white ,   afula, israel   (03.16.12)
say they are our "friends". Like we really need his little air force to help us or defend us. In another year or two with defense cuts the royal air force should be down to a squadron of crop dusters.
24. Lots of whining...
esnuffnstl ,   USA   (03.16.12)
...from people whose governments aren't (also) doing much to stop Iran. If Israel is so scared of Iran, they should take action. But Israelis should stop pestering the rest of the world to help. Likewise, if you're sitting comfortably in some Euopean country while complaining the US/UK aren't taking action, I have to ask: what is your government doing? What is the German government doing? What is the Swedish government doing? Instead of whining on an Isareli talkboard that the US/UK aren't doing enough, it seems your time would be better spend lobbying your own governments.
25. DEAD WRONG
Endyr ,   Diaspora, USA   (03.16.12)
Camron is 100% politically motivated in addition to being crippled with cowardice. Iran is using takia, and Eretz Israel can not wait any longer. The price of waiting until it's too late will increase the bloodshed by an order of magnitude.
26. oddly delusional
alexi   (03.16.12)
cameron who has been through some hell in his own family is oddly living in fantasy land being against a raid on iran. Perhaps he wants to keep his 3 million jihadists in england quiet. Iran could threaten england down the road if it has nukes or rather be immune as others say from stopping its terror activities as it is the number one terror sponsor inthe world. Cameron follows a long list of fearful appeasers like chamberlain.
27. #20 DEAR R . CUMMINGS
DA URBAN POET ,   SAFED OPERA HOUSE   (03.16.12)
It may come as news to you but Israel neither needs permission from your good self ,nor any other person / party /entity / nor state to defend its people or otherwise act in the best interest of its people.Cameron and Obama are irrelevant. The same applies for approval and/ or a "pat on the back ."
28. As is Israel ever expected Cameron's support.
Chaim ,   Israel   (03.16.12)
As if Israel ever expected the support of a coward like Cameron, who is at best, indifferent to Israel's welfare and survival. Destroy Iran's nukes NOW!
29. UK 's Cameron 2012's Chamberlain
RAYS ,   NH, USA   (03.16.12)
I regret the loss of my comrades as we fought alongside Brithish in North Africa and Italy to save the British Isles. We should have let the Germans destroy that PUTRID little isle. We and they didn't know that it would become willing servants to Islam.
30. David Cameron
Zambezi Ruffnek ,   Zimbabwe & UK   (03.16.12)
I am a Rhodesian, we had our own war against world opinion too, and no one listened to our complaints about the evil tyrant running the country to destruction today either. I wish you well, but at some point, if not years ago already, you will have to make your stand against the madness running Iran, just as my people still are against Robert Mugabe (one of your companies sold him water canons to use against us by the way, that wasn't very nice..!) The longer they are left to their devices the worse these evil men become...Stay strong, and when the time comes, fight hard Israel. Shalom. Z.R.
