1. This man is right. World leaders such as
Israeli 2   (10.15.13)
Obama and the Europeans are very stupid and greedy for Iranian oil.
2. Iran knows because Obama brags
C   (10.14.13)
the entire world knows that obama's ego is considerably larger than his desire to stop iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. obama made certain to brag about his pathetic phone call with rouhani, as if this short phone call was the validation of his entire presidency. everybody knows that obama has been crawling on his knees to get a small deal with the shia terror regime, while punishing stalwart egypt who is trying to eradicate jihadists. everybody knows that all obama cares about is his own personal agenda, not national security. the shia terrorists are evil, but by no means stupid.
3. USA Attack ?
Al Hersteck ,   New York US   (10.15.13)
If Israel becomes aware that Iran will have the bomb next week there is no debate. Iran will be attacked this week. The Ayatollah is thinking about the wrong nation. Israel will do what it must to protect its people. Very simple.
4. We need not fear Iran but Jewish Banking System
lydia ,   Brisbane   (10.15.13)
"1913 the Federal Reserve central bank is set up in America, This act literally hands the America economy over to a handful of power Jewish banking families". "The last major President to oppose the Jewish bankers was President Kennedy"
5. JIMMY CARTER MUST
ADAM ,   CHICAGO   (10.15.13)
HAVE RAISED OBAMA AS A CHILD HE IS WELL VERSED IN WEAKNESS AND BEGGING
6. NOW......
ALAN ,   USA   (10.15.13)
NOW THEY CAN BLAME THE JEWS, OH THEY ALREADY DO THAT.
7. World has to live with nuclear Iran
NudNik69   (10.15.13)
With the state of US economy and a wimpy, deluded president this game is over. Iran will increase its aggression and - eventually we'll have a gigantic war.
8. If this game is anything, it is not "chess". There's no "cun
tom ,   tel aviv   (10.15.13)
ning": it is openly obvious for anyone with an ounce of intelligence and a pound of integrity. Nobody is fooling anybody. They only want Israel to be fooled. Will they succeed?
9. Obama is going to throw Israel to the dogs for the sake of
Ron   (10.15.13)
he's supposed glory as a peace maker.
10. Iran playing jews from Europe
Palestinian   (10.15.13)
in the butt of one mountain; uranium enrichment ----> slow cooking
11. Where is Sarah B from Tel Aviv / London?
Tahl   (10.15.13)
This "Israeli" keeps defending Iran's nuclear program with rubbish about the NPT and keeps attacking Netanyahu for being the only one who exposing the true face of Iran to the world. Now Bibi's warnings receive further vindication. I wonder how Sarah will spin this one.
12. usa dirty tricks
just when i though i was out,they pull me back in,so said michael corleone in the godfather,he was complaining about the impossibility of leaving the mafia behind but the quote undoubtedly expresses the feelings of usa as they contemplates the difficulty of extricating the united states from the midleast,like the mafia,however,the midleast has a way of pulling the united states back in
13. Obama is simply out of his league
Barney ,   USA   (10.15.13)
He knows nothing about foreign policy. It will take decades and many lives to undo what he has done.
14. IDF on your markers, 10, 9, 8, 7,,,,,
Son of Cyrus ,   UK   (10.15.13)
15. So Israel will have to do the dirty work, again!
michael redbourn ,   Lisbon Portugal   (10.15.13)
16. What is clever about knowing what
DT ,   TA Israel   (10.15.13)
has been a guarranteed certainty from the outset of Obama's Presidency : He will NEVER attack Iran and neither will the EU get involved. It is Israel alone or Iran gets the bomb- end of matter.
17. 11 - small correction - "the only one who exposes".
Tahl   (10.15.13)
18. iran is by far not acting brilliant, just the west...
uli ,   jerusalem   (10.15.13)
Iran is acting very obvious and not brilliant at all, it's clear what they are heading for and they have done it in the past and say it even openly - just the West - and most of them all Obama - want to be cheated.
19. Theres one other factor thats just as important
Tim ,   Brighton   (10.15.13)
The Iranian People and Iranian Public Opinion At the Elections Iranians spoke loud and clear It was a peaceful but firm and clear rejection of Ahmadinejad and all that he stood for And a resounding message to Rohani - End Sanctions, End Isolation, End Aggression and Promote Engagement Theres a huge amount of Rohanis Credibility WITHIN IRAN riding on his so called new mature peaceful transparent and honest approach to negotiations with the World Community And if Iranians find that Rohani is simply a quieter smilier but regurgitated version of Mr Shifty Ahmadinejad himself...their sense of betrayal failure and let down would soon lead to inevitable rage and anger The gravity of this crisis is for all to see. The consequences too shocking to contemplate. We are still a hairs breath from the brink
20. #19 - Tim from Brighton reckons he knows Iran
(10.15.13)
Joke,
21. #20...To the man with no name
Tim ,   Brighton   (10.15.13)
Joke, ? Sorry I don't really see the current crisis as a joke But hey.....if you have something constructive to say...pray honour us with your insights and knowledge Otherwise man with no name - the Jokes on you!
22. God forbid US under Obama should attack Iran: it'd be like
tom ,   tel aviv   (10.15.13)
Israel "attacking" Gaza- some half empty buildings, nothing major as not to cause permanent damage. If we don't do it ourselves, no one will.
23. #4 The only thing you need fear, lyddie
Expat ,   Adelaide   (10.15.13)
Is the orderly clad in whites, coming to put you back in the Park Centre loony bin you escaped from.
24. To: DT at No. 16
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.15.13)
Agreed. This time, I hope Israel has the presence of mind to exact a price from the international community for saving civilization. We've pulled the world's chestnuts out of the coals often enough -- with nary a word of thanks in response. This time -- we should make them pay. The sniveling cowards in the White House and at 10 Downing Street had better take heed. This time, it's going to cost, and cost dearly.
25. To: No. 4
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.15.13)
My, my! You really have gone round the bend. It's not Iranian warmongering and daily existential threats made against the State of Israel, it's some imaginary conspiracy that exists only in your diseased brain. Do you actually believe the rubbish you perpetually spout? Hasn't anyone ever told you that that which goes into the toilet gets flushed, not eaten? Sick, miserable piece of trash. Someone ought to flush you.
26. It occurs to me ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.15.13)
.... that were we to send the Islamic Republic of Iran back to the Stone Age, there would be nothing left to debate. Shouldn't we just send their corporeal reality back to where their mentality rests? They are a bunch of criminals who constitute the greatest threat to civilization that has ever existed. Time to erase them from the map -- just as they threaten to do against the enlightened West -- particularly the United States and the State of Israel. I know that under the current administration, the United States lacks the stones. Fortunately, Israel does not lack for anything. But be on alert -- Israel has cleaned up too many Western messes with absolutely no credit and no reward. We'll take care of Iran. But it will not come cheaply. You've been warned. We're a little tired of cleaning up the world's messes only to find ourselves on the hot end of international rhetoric. In the immortal words of The Who -- we won't be fooled again. This time, it'll cost.

mbirg ,   brisbane -australia   (10.15.13)
