I could not care less what the Iranians think of us. A clown show? I think they are a very oppressed bunch of sheeple that are living a nothing life.

Good grief, to think most of us give a hoot what the Iranians think of us. I can't wait until Israel kicks their facilities to the moon. Cannot happen soon enough.
Agree with you!

If you were really interested, you'd go to youtube yourself and find were he makes claims. Rather than asking, everyone else to prove it to you.

With that being said, I do believe Israel can handle their selves if the U.S. would let them. The problem is, we've gotten rid of Saddam and Qaddafi, two people who were for the most part, keeping the Middle East in check. These people are not like us and we just don't get it.

Like you people don't pull cards yourself. I've seen you pull the same David Duke, when it's thrown at you, it's some how insulting
Shep you are too smart to buy into the propoganda that Iran is a threat to us or Israel. Please read the following articles and see if you might want to think twice about your position.

Iran a threat to Israel? I don't think so.

Just one Nuke will do the job nicely.

Jews lived in Israel for centuries and even millenia. Remember, before it was called Palestine, it was called Judea ... and before that it was the Kingdoms of Judah and Israel. If you believe that all of a sudden, out of nowhere a group of European Jews suddenly invaded Israel and set up a country there, you are quite mistaken.



It is ironic that the name Palestine actually comes from the Romans who destroyed Judea in 79 AD. The Romans basically got fed up with the Jews wanting freedom from Rome and this is what happens to people who didn't want to get woth the Roman Program. After Vespasian got rid of the Jews , destroyed the Second Temple and sent the few survivors into slavery or fleeing to places like Persia, Africa or India they renamed the the place Syria Palestra (Lower Syria) and ruled it from Damascus. Over time Palestra morphed into Palestine.

So you are saying Palestinians are NOT the native people of the land? Are they really just Southern Syrians???

Could Yassir Arafat (an Egyptian) have LIED to us?


I wonder if the oppressed Palestinians would rather be ruled by Bashar Assad right now. I hear non-Alawites there are having a hard time these days.

They are worthy of having air raids that bomb their technology back to the stone age.
Israel is wise enough to do it and has displayed extraordinary restraint in taking so long to do the inevitable.

They don't have 400.
It has been "widely reported" that Israel has 4million nuclear bombs!
Why does Israel need them? They need them for stupid people!
