What scum.

Israel only adds to the problem in this world. Starving citizens is in clear violation of international law and a criminal act to violate Human Rights.

Default Reminiscent of the Kissenger model

Using food as a weapon has been a failure everywhere it has been tried. The people suffer while their elite leadership continue to live largely unaffected.

Thankfully Ron Paul is against such sanctions as using food as a weapon.

ETA: never mind, it looks like Obama is going to choose bombs anyway.

And what does it say about the leaders of Iran that they'd rather have nukes than food for their people?

Right. They are trying to help their people by getting Nuclear Energy and the zionist entity screwing up the ME is threatening them with starvation....Iran is not to blame here.If Israel is so damn worried about Iran getting Nukes which they aren't doing then they should fight their own war. Or do the sane thing don't worry about it and if Iran does try to nuke Israel they have over 300 nuclear weapons to shoot at Iran...

It makes them your typical government.
I suppose you think ours would be different?

With the exception of Israel, is there any reason the U.S. supports any Middle East nation for a reason that excludes oil reserves?

Some don't realize that government cheese and food give away is close to starving. I rather have a job than eat government hand outs.
