1. Enough is ENOUGH !
Ted Dexter   (06.19.12)
Enough is ENOUGH ! And the next round of talks scheduled in Tahiti or Hawaii. Obama, cunning Ashton& Europe are stringing it along nicely ! They want to prolong the talks so that Israel will have its hands tied while Iran continues merrily on its nuke work. Israel should attack immediately.
2. clear delaying tactics
Frank Berg   (06.19.12)
The P5+1 are a bunch of scoundrels, if left to themselves they will allow Iran to build nukes and even a Star-Wars Death-star. Thank Netanyahu, he's the only person the P5+1 fear because if Netanyahu orders an attack, their crumbling economies will collapse like a pack of cards. Talks are finished, time for action is here. Netanyahu & Barak...attack now !
3. July 1 new much more biting sanctions are due to take place
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (06.19.12)
but smart money says the facilities will still be assaulted. The only question is timing.
4. Okay, that's it !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (06.19.12)
5. Ashton chief EU negotiator?A set up for failure. Mullahs
PETER SM ,   AUSTRALIA   (06.19.12)
must be laughing as they string along for time. She is as useless as she is ignorant and PC
6. next stop Turkey...... hahahahah
Ben S ,   USA   (06.19.12)
After Turkey they will want to meet in China. The time for talking is over. Truth is talking never started. Ashton loves Iranian bullshit.
7. Beware
Terry Feld ,   Houston, Texas   (06.19.12)
There are rumors of a Pistachio Cartel moving to control the nut market. The only question to be decided is whether to act before the Israeli strike or wait until most of the Iranian nuts have been eliminated. Time is short.
8. Don't worry!
Steve ,   USA   (06.20.12)
No matter that there is no agreement. At the last moment (in Moscow) it will be announced that 'progress' has been made (because) 'both sides agree on another round of talks' . A meeting will be held next month (or perhaps later) to discuss the schedule for the next meeting. If Obama was honest (lol), he would just come out and say that nothing, zero, effes will happen until after the elections in November. He has more important things to do (like campaigning and playing golf) and this is just a 'distraction'.
9. Delaying tactic
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.20.12)
Further talks in July. Same deadlock on key issues. Still further talks in August .... September .... October .... you get the point. I don't believe that Israel is willing to wait any longer. Presidential election year be damned.
10. Deadlock Does That Mean That The ILLEGAL regime
(06.20.12)
in teheran Has'nt Gotten their way? THERE WILL NEVER BE progress!!! The pathetic 5+1 Are Like Tits On A Bull USELESS!!!!!!! BTW is that dirt on ashton's Knee's ????
11. Don't negotiate. Deliver ultimatum.
John ,   NZ   (06.20.12)
12. Talks stalled!
Jerome ,   Basalt, Colorado   (06.20.12)
Now there is a shocker! What A huge surprise dealing with the mad mullah regime and no progress. Actually the progress is with the Irurian nuke weapons program thanks to the Obummer and Clinton clown show.
13. Iran is playing smart
Scotch&Soda   (06.20.12)
Iran is buying time to build its bombs
14. just this week
(06.20.12)
both hillary and obama said that these talks were iran's last chance and if nothing comes out of it, there will be no more talks. typical reneging obama. the clown, the idiot and the muslim in chief.
15. Time for us to put up or shut up
ZionistBecky ,   Israel   (06.20.12)
We've been threatening to take action for years...I wonder if we'll have the guts to do it? Obviously the nations negotiating with Iran aren't taking this seriously. Why should they? It's not their problem. We're the ones who are scared to death of the third-world dump this is Iran. I only wish our military were more capable. After the beating we took in Lebanon, I fear we'll going to turn this into a fiasco---with Iranian facilities being virtually unharmed and us being attacked on all sides. Perhaps it's true that we're too immature a people to have our own state.
16. How Long A Liar Can Continue Lying??
Asher ,   NY,USA   (06.20.12)
As Long As there Are Fools To Listen To Him........ Can You Fool Jews? No way Jose, At Least Not This Time.. Can You Fool The World? They Don't Care If you Do..... Is it Forbidden to Lie in Turkey And Permissible In Russia??
17. They're taking a World Tour
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (06.20.12)
Around the world in 80 months, maybe longer
18. NOT TO WORRY
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (06.20.12)
Obama told Bibi that he "had his back", he's twisting the knife he stuck in it
19. Just in Case
Terry Feld ,   Houston, Texas   (06.20.12)
A little reminder...in case anyone, who has the power to shoot, reads here..... Any military attack on Iran before the Presidential election in the United States has been completed will result in the sitting President being re-elected bt the American voter. So, begin the shooting after November 7, 2012.....and we all will live happily ever after.
20. Catherine Ashton is anti-Semitic
Dan Goldman   (06.20.12)
Catherine Ashton is anti-Semitic and pro-Hamas. She is well known for being friendly to radical Islamic preachers & making frequent statements against Israel. Its obvious that she is helping Iran (in collusion with Obama & the Europeans) by extending the talks indefinitely. Already 3 rounds of talks over with many months wasted. Next coming up are "expert-level talks", then "deputy-level talks" then more "P5.1 talks". This enables Iran to continue their nuclear work easily and rapidly. Its time this charade is trashed and Israel acts independently for their own safety & survival.
21. Moscow was supposed
Frank Bergman   (06.20.12)
Moscow was supposed to be the final talks, but now it seems to be getting extended indefinitely. By the time these P5.1 scoundrels finish their "meetings, consultations, expert-level, deputy-level, confidence building measures, yada yada" and other such time-wasting tactics, mushrooms clouds will be rising over Tel Aviv and Israel. The Iranian centrifuges are spinning non-stop and nuke work is going on at breakneck speed. The Zone of Immunity has almost been reached. Its time for Israel to act, before its too late. Obama, the Europeans and Ashton can jump into the nearest sewer.
22. While they're at it, they should set date& place for
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.20.12)
the first Iranian nuclear test. Preferably in Nevada under the auspices of the Immam in Chief Obama. Ashton should be a honorary observer.
23. I am curious what will happen after 1 July
Istvan ,   BUDAPEST HUNGARY   (06.20.12)
Hopefully iranians will have a special diet, consisting of caspian caviar, pistacia, and camel milk.
24. #11 - John, exactly what would that "ultimatum" be?
spyguy ,   seattle usa   (06.20.12)
When will the angry people here on Ynet finally figure out that there is absolutely NOTHING US/Israel can do to Iran. NOTHING. Iran can easily get around all the sanctions (Cuba has been doing it for 50 years). Iran has more than enough defensive weapons to massively hurt anyone that attacks (they have been preparing for US/Israel attacks for 35 years). The US is extremely vulnerable to economic attack and Iran is in the perfect place to make such an attack. The US has lost all three major wars it started in the last 50 years and Iran's military know exactly how to defeat the US (thanks to Iraq). China and Russia have very bluntly told US/Israel that they will respond fiercely to any attack on Iran. The bottom line is US/Israel has NO OPTIONS. Attack is suicidal, so all they can do is beg Iran. Get used to Iran as a regional power, they are NOT going away.
25. A CLEAR MESSAGE
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (06.20.12)
To Israel that the pace of talks and possible agreement will not be achieved at the whims of some restless politicians.Iran's demand of reciprocacity is well founded and logical as well.The Iranians are under no obligation to act with present sanctions remaining the way they are.If Iran responds to the 5+1,counter measures of lifting the sanctions are also neccessary.
26. Bibi...HIGH NOON has now arrived...
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (06.20.12)
TICK...TOCK...TICK...TOCK...TICK...TOCK...TICK...TOCK..............................
27. #24 Iran vulnerable to economic sanctions
Cynthia ,   USA   (06.20.12)
Iran's oil export revenues dropped 40% since the beginning of the year due to sanctions. By the end of the year and particularly in light of EU sanctions commencing 7/1, that number could increase to 80%. Billions of dollars in lost oil revenues won't make the rich clerics of Iran very happy. And I do believe the nuclear program is funded by oil revenues.
28. #24 spyguy, seattle usa
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (06.20.12)
You are pretty naive, like most in the USA. It's not about Iran becoming a regional power. If Iran has nukes, also Egypt, Turkey and all other camel thief state in the Middle East wants to have them. And if they have them, you can wait for one to give some "device" to a terrorist organization. And a 9/11 attack with a nuclear weapon will affect you very personally.
29. # 23 Istvan
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (06.20.12)
August 1, Sept. 1, Oct. 1, Nov. 1, Dec. 1 and 2013 Otherwise the talk will remain as they are now, going nowhere at all
30. There is simple solution.....
Robert ,   Australia   (06.21.12)
......Israel destroy their nuclear weapons and Iran wouldn't need them. Of course, that is IF Iran is developing them.
