1. The first step
Sherlock Holmes ,   London England   (01.20.13)
Assad must step down before Syria can move forward. Assad, like Saddam Hussein, is from the Ba'ath Party, which began its life as the pro-Hitler Arab party.
2. Iran has to be dealt with...ONLY the TOTAL
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (01.20.13)

zionist forever   (01.20.13)
Holmes it should be elementary this fighting is going on because Assad doesn't want to step down. If he had cared about anything but his own hold on power non of this would be happening.
4. The Butcher of syria Is A Dead Man
(01.20.13)
Walking! As for the ILLEGAL regime in tehran HAS NO SAY, they interfere in Lots of territory OUTSIDE their own. Maybe Lots Of Countries Could Support THE GREEN MOVEMENT TO OVERTHROW their ayatollah Cockamamie, and revert back to a secular society!
5. If my dog goes lame, that is a red line
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (01.20.13)
These guys are getting scared with Bibi's imminent prospect of a clear majority in the Knesset Once Iran's blackmail Joker is stripped out of the pack, Assad brushed aside, Alexander the Great's record for regime change in Persia will likely fall
6. red line
gandjian   (01.20.13)
if iran attacks israel because assad is overthrown by his own people, israel will eradicate the cancerous illegal rotten entity of iran, the illegal cancer that oppresses the persian people. and larijani, kameinei and ahmadinejad will be dealt with. You are warned!
7. Red Line
Jacob E ,   Holon Israel   (01.20.13)
Iran needs to go before the UN with a big picture of Assad and draw a red line through him to illustrate what they mean...
8. Senior Iranian says
Get Real ,   UK   (01.20.13)
''But this does not mean that we ignore the Syrian people's right in choose (ing) its own rulers." Why shouldn't they, after all they ignored the Iranian people's rights in Iran's last election. Dictators must stick together.

Cameron ,   USA   (01.20.13)

Barry ,   Sao Paulo   (01.20.13)
Iran's going to be the next case. One step at a time...
11. Hm! Better leave Assad there to build back what he destroyed
Harry Wright ,   UK   (01.20.13)
He is bad enough, but worse to come if he is removed because Syria will go the way of Libya, right in Israel's backyard.

15. #13 COMING FROM NON IRANIAN
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (01.21.13)
We lived in Iran and suffered and left. What the heck do you have to say about a topic that has nothing to do with your life? Dude! Go back to Pakistan. You don't deserve UK.
16. Israel may pay the price?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.21.13)

17. @ #16
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (01.21.13)
I certailny hope so. I hope the two monkeys in Tehran and Beirut get in there with the help of daddy Putin. I really hope that is the plan Obama has. Get all the three monkeys off our back and send them all to go after Al-Queda.
18. YOU WERE NEVER IN IRAN................#15
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (01.21.13)
And trying to pretend to be so will not help your cause at all,you moron.Jews in Iran are having a good time and probably laughing at you after reading your talk-back.
19. Free Persia from the Ayatollahs
Edward ,   USA   (01.21.13)
The Persian people hated the Shah, but Persia went from bad to worse. The ayatollahs and their nihilistic regime are heading for the same collapse as every other demonic empire.
20. ISRAEL, SYRIA AND IRAN.
SJOERD VAN DER VELDE ,   HOORN NH, HOLLAND   (01.25.13)
ISRAEL HAS NOTHING TO DO/HAS NO GUILT/IS NOT RESPONSIBLE, WHAT HAPPENS IN SYRIA. THE CRIMINAL REGIME IN TEHRAN HAS TO MIND IT'S OWN BUSINESS. IT HAS NO REASON TO EXIST AT ALL. THEY HOSTAGE AND SURPRESS THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND VIOLATE EVERY HUMAN RIGHT.
