1. well-stated... Ya'alon is far better spokesman than Bibi
Rafi ,   US   (11.11.13)
2. Not going to happen!
John Prophet   (11.11.13)
"That is why Israel must shout 'we are about to miss this opportunity'. There should be an agreement that is comprehensive that would make the regime forgo its entire enrichment capabilities." What are you going to do about it!
3. I wonder if these same sanctions would help convince Israel
Ken ,   Burma at Peace   (11.11.13)
to make Peace and stop the occupation of the West Bank.Or even stop settlement biulding on occupied land. Maybe they should try it. Right Israelis, for your sake
4. Mr Prophet
Ram ,   London   (11.11.13)
Work it out. Would Israel remain a sitting duck?
5. I wonder if same sanctions would help convince Burma Muslims
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (11.11.13)
to return to Buddhism and abandon the Satanic cult imposed on them.
6. 3.
Birdi ,   Israel is ours.   (11.11.13)
Nope, wrong. Thought by now you would have learnt a wee bit more about our history. Judea & Samaria is not occupied & Israel is not building illegal anything. For your sake, go open a few history books about Israel.
7. #4 you misunderstood.
John Prophet   (11.11.13)
What I meant was a favorable deal that Israel could sign off on is not going to happen.
8. Historic opportunity about to be missed
Hassan Salem ,   Dubai , UAE   (11.11.13)
It is really scary that an Iranian charm offensive could be sufficient to alter the geo strategic map of the region , but that is where we are because of Obama / Kerry inherent weaknesses.or reflexive peace desires . The Israeli defense minister is correct , we are close , the way to undo Iran is easy if we follow the four following steps concurrently : - Continue the sanctions and maybe increase them gradually , but continue to talk to them with no end in sight until they seriously blink . - Bleed them by supporting the Syrian rebels , the Christians/ Sunnis in Lebanon , and any anti Iranian group in Iraq . - Continue to pick their experts anywhere - Increase disinformation and support Iranian opposition . The trajectory is clear , By the next Nuiroz ( new Persian year the Rouhani administration will lose face and squander political capital , in 3-6 months after that the Iranian Riyal will tumble again , in six months after that they will reduce significantly their support. For Hizb Allah and Assad losing further reputation and political capital sowing differences among the elites , the last step would further structural deterioration in the economic state to a point of losing control ( Rafsanjani would be either feeble or dead , making the political structure vulnerable to imbalances ) , by early 2015 , the regime will be wobbly and seek shear survival .
9. #5 not mine.
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (11.11.13)
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
10. Ancient Iran will exist long after Apartheid "Jewish State".
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (11.11.13)

12. At least Iran has a pretty face...
Mark Schroeder ,   Germany   (11.12.13)
