I sure hope this is disinformation the United States stabbed Israel in the back in 1973 War and caused the deaths of 3000 Israelis. The US cannot be trusted.
32. I doubt it is true:
leo ,   usa   (03.29.12)
"... believe that Israel has secured access to airbases in Azerbaijan". --- Iran is too close to Azerbaijan and Azerbaijan is too weak. And use of bases will definitely be construed as an act of war. So, I doubt Azerbaijan will take this risk.

Ram ,   London   (03.29.12)
Wow! You are one unhappy soul! No american blood was EVER spilled for ANY Jew. So get that right. On the quiet, I bet you it is the Americans who BEG Israel for its intelligence work. Israel is like the good responsible child that helps its US "daddy" maintain the household and gets no "thanks". The arabs are like the rebellious child that holds the key to the front door, using "blackmail" in the form of oil supply, while abusing that same "daddy". Now figure out what is going on!
34. Azeri bases
graczek ,   Maryland, USA   (03.29.12)
If this story indeed is true, then one has to say to supposedly Muslim Azerbaijan: SHAME, SHAME, SHAME!!!
35. Again, it is not about miltiary hardware
Observer ,   New York, USA   (03.29.12)
Most of the analyis give you the boiler plate solutions to Iran of what Israel will do. Israel can't think conventional and I am not talking about military hardware. Consider this: 1. Saudi Arabia already provide access air bases and support for Israel air strike. Yes - you can believe in it. 2. Turkey does the same as SA. and Erdogan behavior is only show off act to the Iranian. Remember Erdogan aspiration. Iran stand in his way. 3. 5th column within Iran waiting for Israel to act. 4. Stuxnet and other sleeping warm waiting for command. 5. Any Israel action will lead to Iran blocking/damaging oil flow which will leads to US/EU attack on Iran. Can you think of others reasons why the Iranian and the US will be surprised if and when Israel decide to attack Iran? I can't. It is not my job but the IDF has enough brain to make sure that we are all for a big surprise. Like any military, IDF let the enemy know of some of its capbilities ( aka military hardware ) but no more than this.
36. # 32
Politik Sondaj ,   Turkey   (03.29.12)
Nuclear Iran is UNACCEPTABLE, a bad joke, a LOL, a nightmare. All region's security and oil prices will lose control. Obama will attack Iran after the elections. I give you 100 pc guarantee. No need to panic! Russia will lose in Syria, Iran and in Nagorno-Karabakh. No way! LONG LIVE AZERBAYCAN. YOU WILL GET BACK YOUR LANDS FROM iran and it's supporter armenia.
37. #36, then if we were to follow your logic Turkey
leo ,   usa   (03.29.12)
would be encouraging Israel to use its facilities for an attack on Iran.
38. Chazak ve Ematz!!
Efraim ,   Virginia   (03.29.12)
Israel will knock Iran's teeth out.
39. #4 The US contribution
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (03.29.12)
Is exactly $0 dollars. This is strictly between us and Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan knows that our advanced SAMs make them safe from any Iranian air attacks and without air cover no ground attacks either.
40. 6# Obama is the biggest whining appeaser that
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (03.29.12)
ever walked the planet. The United States had 30 million people as a population in 1861. 500,000 thousand americans died so Obama could be sitting at golf courses with his freedom. That would be 5 million dead in todays terms to accomplish the same feat. Obama just relishes talking about Lincoln like he was a saint. But the whole anti war Democratic appeasement party including yourself....has forgotten what metal it takes to be a President. People have to die....to keep your freedom. Just because Democrats whine incessantly about the fact...changes nothing. Guess what...its gonna be one of our kids that takes a bullet. Plain and simple. And yes...I served unlike 90 percent of the Democrats whining on these web sites about death all the time. Gutless wonders running nothing but the United States and the world down the toilet...That's Obama's legacy. He deserves nothing....he is sitting around doing nothing for anyone but his agenda.....Not the United States agenda.
41. I wish Israelians luck in the fight against Iran
Claudia ,   Frankfurt, DE   (03.29.12)
42. Really amazing.
Atilla ,   istanbul   (03.29.12)
Which airline route is more suitable for Israel?Iran or Turkey.?
43. #6 sheik - wrong
solomon ,   bklyn   (03.29.12)
Many American Jews don’t see the necessity to decide between Israel and the US; it is an anti-semitic cabal. The majority of American Jews care about oil prices and the American economy and dead American soldiers (G-d forbid) AND Israel AND dead Israeli soldiers (G-d forbid). Obama’s interests are first for the US, AND secondly for the free world. This is not black and white, but grey. If you want to talk about arrogant talk, look in a mirror.
44. Obama showing hate for Israel again.
Maurice ,   Los Angeles, USA   (03.29.12)
The Obama administration is purposefully leaking this info to sabotage Israel. November cannot come fast enough so we can vote him out.
45. @42
sipahi ,   Istanbul   (03.29.12)
Don't bother their dreams, my friend. They're celebrating their victory over Iran :)
46. On the contrary
Oleg ,   USA   (03.29.12)
The strike on Iran's nuclear facilities can ignite the revolt and Iranians will topple this suicidal regime. Why Iranians need those mullahs? They create nothing but problem.
47. #37 and #39
Politik Sondaj ,   Turkey   (03.29.12)
#37 Turkish military presence (Guardian angel) in Azerbaijan like Cyprus and they are not weak. Yes, without US or Azeris, the clock is thicking and time is running out. You focus on the process, not the result infront of Psychomaniac. People are paying 10 per gallon i/o 5 and it's not fare :) #39 Israel only needs spirit of GOLDA MEIR. You dont need any KISSinger. Situations are critical. US will attack Iran forcibly, unwillingly, involuntarily, under compulsion, no way out. Just ask when.
48. iran
spookey ,   birmingham uk   (03.29.12)
i like it , right on irans doorstep and america is out of the picture better still , i wonder why ?????
49. Even if this is true ,...
split ,   US   (03.29.12)
Even if this is true how they are going to get there and not to be nailed, may I ask ?,...
50. Sarah, only Obummer and his band are unhappy
Isabella ,   Tampa USA   (03.29.12)
Of course he wants to tell Israel what she can and can't do. Part of his early childhood muslim upbringing you know. He is busy trying to take away the freedom of every one of us. I think if Iran is attacked it should be a joint Israeli/American mission. It will be criminal if Israel has to go it alone. Obama is a hateful disaster for the free world. Scares me how many liberals think he is right, he must be defeated in Nov.
51. Iran's Dream Come True: An Excuse to Seize Azeri Oil Fields
Arik Silverman ,   Chicago USA   (03.30.12)
52. #47 politik
solomon ,   bklyn   (03.30.12)
1. Iran is working towards nuclear weapons and your first worry is the price of gas. 2. If the US attacks, it will be of its own volition. 3. Your fantasies show through too easily. You are anything but "politik".
53. azeru airbases
ilan ,   israel   (03.31.12)
whoever leaked this or wrote it does not know their geography. how will the israeli planes get there? over Turkey? Overy Syria? Over Pakistan?
