Israel Threatening Iran

[Orange_Juice]

So Iran wants long term investment money? That doesn't sound like suicidal maniacs to me. I can live with a nuclear Iran, and I suppose we all will pretty sooon, no matter what the Isarelis and their warmongering government think

Sneh also visited Switzerland and Austria last week in an attempt to lobby them against the Iranian threat. Both countries have announced massive long-term investments in Iranian gas and oil fields for the next decade.

"Talk of the Jewish Holocaust and Israel's security doesn't impress these guys," Sneh said wryly.

Hearing his hosts speak of their future investments, Sneh replied quietly "it's a shame, because Ido will light all this up." He was referring to Maj. Gen. Ido Nehushtan, the recently appointed IAF commander and the man most likely to be the one to orchestrate Israel's attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, should this become a necessity.

"Investing in Iran in 2008," Sneh told his Austrian hosts, "is like investing in the Krupp steelworks in 1938, it's a high risk investment." The Austrians, according to Sneh, turned pale.

They won't need to. They'll just sell them this:

Russia has successfully tested a stealth missile able to penetrate the US defence system being built in Poland.

Israel has no right to stop Iran having nuclear power. Instead of trying to stop Iran becoming nuclear Israel should try to stop Arab nations hating them.

The President of Iran made threats against Israel. Do you really think Iran is going to use nuclear power for domestic use? Or is Iran going to use it to build a bomb that could be delivered to Israel? Did you read comments that the President of Iran directed at Israel?

Iran wouldn’t use nukes against Israel for the same reasons Russia didn’t against America.

Israel’s tactic of preventing Arab nations going nuclear just isn’t a viable long term strategy. Nuclear technology is old now and getting easier to do all the time, and with global warming nuclear is becoming a much more desirable way to produce energy. Israel really should try to get on with its neighbours instead of threatening them.

But would you be worried when a guy like Iran's president talks about annihilating Israel? Just the incident up north with Lebanon is a sign of concern. Iran supporting Hezbollah, and Hezbollah firing rockets into their country. Added, they could turn that Nuclear technology for military use. Why would they? Because if they want to destroy Israel, they would have the arsenal to do so.

What I’m trying to say is attempting to prevent hostile countries around them gaining nuclear technology indefinitely isn’t feasible. A better option is to address the reasons they are hostile.

There have been plenty of UN resolutions disapproving of the behaviour of Israel. Nearly half of the 88 resolutions against Israel "condemned", "censured" or "deplored" the member state or its actions. Also, in the UN General Assembly, 429 resolutions against Israel were passed, and Israel was condemned 321 times.

And there’s the times when resolutions were vetoed by the US despite often 14 of the 15 Security Council members voting for them jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/UN/usvetoes.html

So maybe if Israel stopped behaving so badly Muslim countries around them wouldn’t be so unfriendly.

We are talking about a guy who supports the strapping of bombs onto children to kill opponents. Do you honestly think that Iran wont use nukes on Israel for the same reason Russia didn't on America? I dont.

Yeah. how dare they try to stay alive!

I'd be concerned if I were an Israeli, too.

uh, are you SERIOUS?????????

This is the dumbest fucking statement I have seen in my years here. First, Israel is in the same geographic region as Iran. Iran has sworn the destruction of the Zionist state. Iran having nukes is not any different than Russia putting them in Cuba. Israel has every right to prevent the destruction of itself. Second, getting Arabs to stop hating Jews is like getting Bostonians to stop hating the Yankees. Get a fuckin' clue.

Maybe if Muslim countries weren't hell bent on destroying Israel, then Irael would not have take action. Try walking to school or work in the morning with the constant fear that the guy next to you is strapped with plastic explosives. Listen to stories of Auschwitz and Borgen-Belsen from your grandparents and try not to be a little paranoid and proactive. Have you Olympic team slaughterd by terrorists at a world event promoting peace and see if you don't get a little defensive. Like I said before, get a fuckin clue.
