So sad it is to see in the world how the voices of reason, kindness, compassion and brotherly love are silenced and instead to hear ever closer the beat of the drums of war... How the politicians and mass media are completely servile to special interest groups, to the “powers that be”, belching out lies after lies, hatred, hostility, poisons of every imaginable kind... preparing the human herds for the great slaughter at their own hands... And foolish, tired, disempowered people buying it all, lock, stock and barrel, no questions asked! In the words of Adam Weishaupt: “Oh, foolish man, what can you not be made to believe?”. You people on this forum and elsewhere promoting war, death and destruction, have you even considered that it is only just that before you take one side or another, you should take a step back and look at the present situation in the world today and especially Middle East from a greater perspective? Have you analysed all or most of the facts in a historic, economic, financial, cultural, religious, political and exopolitics’ context? Have you at the very least gotten all the facts? Too hard for you? But it is not hard to express opinions here and elsewhere that are based mainly on your whims, wishes, biases and influences you received constantly from the controlled media... lies upon lies, hatred, war... How deluded you are!

I am afraid that the Zionists in the Whitehouse will drag America into yet another middle-east misadventure ! By striking Iraq first , with no tangible proof of weapons - of - mass - destruction , America has set a dangerous precedent on the world stage ! American " democracy " is a joke ! Most Americans were against invading Iraq but the big demonstrations were not covered in the mainstream American press . They were ignored by their own leaders who are ideologically bent on taking over the planet - one country at a time . First , the mission was about removing the "weapons of mass destruction ". None were found . Second , the mission was to remove Saddam Hussein - they did that . Third , now our leaders say we must stay and create a democracy for the Iraqi people because the country is so unstable . Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and the American government knew that before they invaded Iraq . They were making plans to invade a year prior to 9/11 ! They only needed an excuse to get a foothold in the middle-east to exploit oil reserves and set up supply routes to secure the ability to invade other neighboring countries . Iran does not trust America ever since America imposed " The Shah " on Iran who ruled the people with an iron fist on behalf of American and British oil interests . America is not trusted in many countries all over the world . I can understand why the Iranian government is so paranoid about being attacked and why they would want their own detterent just like North Korea.

You know, it's really cool that so many people actually take the time to read stories like these, and then participate in a dialogue. We get many different points of view, and as long as everyone holds their temper in check, we all benefit. Unfortunately, in my opinion Israel simply cannot allow a regime that has openly expressed it's desire eliminate all Jews from the region by any means necessary to develop nuclear weapons. And lets face it, Iran has NEVER behaved in anything even approaching a sane manner. I don't think Israel will be given the chance to strike first though. I think Iran will most likely lead the entire middle east, and probably the rest of the world too, into the final conflict. I think by and large, the Muslims of the world get a pretty bad rap. The majority of them are peace loving, and probably have no problem with Jews, Christians, Buddhists, or any other religion. Unfortunately, the ones that are in control of the use of military force, are mostly no more than a bunch of zealous thugs. And those leaders have made it absolutely clear that ANY person who is not Islamic is not deserving of life. Iran's leadership is decaying into a dictatorship, which very closely resembles Iraq a few short years ago.

What an honor it is to be allowed to share my feelings about Iran and the Israel government. Iran once was a country so full of poverty, it could not function without the help from the West and European countries. Now look at it today. It is self sufficient and holds its own destiny. It is a country that believes it is so powerful, that it could withstand any invasion from others who dare. Her military stance has boosted its way to show they are not weak. I am sure it is. Israel on the other hand, is a country reliving its past. From the days of Moses, God handed his people a country that he had chosen. What happened during world war two, When Germany slaughtered millions of innocent people. They did deserve a land to go to and call it their home. All they want is a portion of land to call home. But not according to other folks who think that Israel should belong to Palestine.. I guess it is time for all of us to sit down and open our history books and learn who the real bullies are. Is it Iran? Is it the Palestinians? Is it Israel? I am glad to be an American.

Within one (1) year Iran could have the ability to deliver nuclear warheads. This is according to a Physics professor from Berkley, CA that was interviewed on the Glenn Beck show.

Obama, lies. Don`t sit and wait too long. Do it now.

Unfortunately, Israel has NO Choice as to whether to engage Iran or not. It Must. Period. And, there should be no waiting for the go-ahead from the US. The current president and his administration talk; they do not ACT!

Everyone needs to tone down the word noise about the middle east. There is a whole big world outside of the middle east that may have some good things going on but reporters are neglecting this because they are preoccupied with hype and propaganda about the middle east. The last thing this world needs is constant threats of war and more wars. Can we all not just get along and work for a better situation for everyone. I am not naive enough to believe that frail human politicians are capable of bringing "lasting peace". Politicians mouthing this "lasting peace" propaganda usually turn out to be the opposite and create new conflicts costing countless lives {not their children or their own lives}.

I am not Jewish. I have been to Israel mulitple times in my lifetime. I fear Yahweh, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel. Like it or not, there is a Soveriegn God Who reigns over the world in which we live. He has declared that the land which Israel occupies is His gift to them. He is the Defender of His covenant people. He has also declared that those who "curse" Abraham will themselves be "cursed." I would not want to be among those nations whose leaders curse Israel and "want to wipe Israel off the map." They define their own fates by their blind hatred and fear. There is no wisdom, no understanding, that is contrary to Yahweh's plans and purposes. Israel would gladly live in peace with its neighbors, but the hatred of many generations has poisoned the hearts of many of her Arab and Muslem neighbors. Israel is not perfect. No nation is perfect. Every nation will answer to the Judge of all the Earth and all wrongs will be righted in His Day. Until that Day, Israel must defend itself as the only sovereign sanctuary for the Jewish peoples of the world.

Iran is not Iraq and Iran is ready to take israel no problem ! israel has been occupying Palestine for too long , the world is standing by and doing nothing while israel is commiting a crime. I hope they do attack Iran because Iran will do what was needed to be done a long time ago and that is stop THE TERRORIST STATE OF israel !

Hello, I think i am tired of hearing words of threat and propagada. However, have we not learned lesson from world war I and II ? I think the world leaders should think twice and ponder very well before initiating attack to any soverign nations. I want you to bear in minds that there are no winners in war situation, there are only survivals and these survivals survived because of chances, not by intelligency or not by knowing how to fight. Imagine the soviet survived the nazi invasion but beared heavy casualty which will never be forgotten for centuries to come, likewise the allies forces, and nazi itself. Now look at this mordern day where Irak was attacked and uncountable number of civilians lifes were destroyed and continue to perish. soldier continues to die by daily basis. we should learn how to be in peace with each other. Peace is the only solution to our day today problems. I warn all those nations that considered themselves super power should make peace with one and other and even negotiate peace for the sake of humanity. In so doing, to finish peacefully the world oldest existing war which is in the middle east. You know what i mean.

To Polondia August 31,2009, Are you so worried about misspelling words? Do you think you know more than a person who spells a wodr incorrectly? I have news for you as far as your blunder.Apparently, you do not understand why the people of Israel could not occupy her land for many years.They not only were forced out by the assyrians (the lost tribes) but enslaved and or murdered. Babylonia captured the tribes of Judah and Benjamin and many People of the tribe of Levi and did the same.Start researching from that point on.Many jewish people were murdered for not denouncing Judaeism in Europe.Check out what happened during the Inquisition. How about the brutality of the roman empire. The Roman catholic church, now there is something to research. Can you not understand? Throughout history, the jewish people for fear of their very existence, lived where they could throughout Europe. They worshiped God in seclusion and went as far as to marry people not of their race to prove they were of christian faith? There was nothing wrong with being christian until the Roman catholic church made changes to benefit them,thus mocking God by violating His laws. They would not tolerate Judaism to conflict the laws created by them. Either the Jews accept and live by this doctorine or die.People scattered,until the could go home.Israel is their land,not people who decided it was theirs while they were forced to live elsewhere.The people of Israel have been the most tortured, enslaved, and murdered throughout history. I don't know where you are from or what you have read nor do I really care.But do not write a statement about the Jews and if israel was their land then why have they stayed away so long. Research true history then reply. I will not care if you spell a word incorrectly.

why are the israeli's waiting on a green light from Obama? He has an agenda of his own,which does not include Israel. Ahmadinejad just signed an agreement with venezualan's president chavez to help Iran develop their crude oil.Iran did not have this. This agreement trumps sanctions the US used so Iran would not continue their nuclear development program. Israel must protect herself,as proliferation of Israel is still priority for ahmadinejad.The roadmap is the only thing(and has been for decades) the US cares about.There will be no land ( which by the way, is a covenent made by God to her.) They need to stay out of this,as this threat is nothing more than greed and jealousy of this covenent. As far as Israel haveing Obama as an allie, you are living in the past.He says he is,but meets with Ahmadinejad knowing he hate US as well. Obama has released terrorists'in "hope" this will pacify islamic extremists and ahmadenijad. I pray everyday for Israeli citizens that they will unite and her government will stop turning against her own people.What ever happened to "never again"?
