Everything about the United Nations is a “farce”. It is the UN and Mr. Bowen who are “unbelievable”. And I'm sure that Bolt has not 'ignored’ the Palestinian Muslim terrorists besieging Israel. And most of the 'Palestinians’ came from Syria. The are landless and unnamed until they were dubbed 'Palestinian’ by someone who thought they should be recognised.

America’s and Australia's support is not “questionable”. Of course they are going to support a democracy, like their own, against non-democratic, Muslim terrorist barbarians.

“There is no love lost in Iran for Israel or for the United States”, advises Bowen. There is no love in Iran, sworn to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, full stop. Love is not associated with Islam or Islamic countries. And the name of Barak Obama will be on the warhead of any missile fired by that stinking sh---hole into democratic Israel, along with the names of those European 'failing’ states who are in league with the UN in trying to block President Trump’s political action against Iran.

Israel is “so aggressive” (any sane person calls it defence) because Mr. Bowen “has worked in the Middle East over many years, including Iran” and has clearly been brainwashed into being anti-Israel, if not anti-Semitic.

Once Iran has a nuclear missile they will use it! And against Israel, who will surely retaliate with systems the Iranians don't even suspect they have. Resulting in a large sea of volcanic glass and no Iranians or Israelis or Palestinians. Unless you count fleas, cockroaches and rats as Israelis, Palestinians or Iranians? Why bother, nothing, least of all common sense or even, rarer Christian charity and goodwill to all men is going to deter the mad rush by madmen to their own annihilation? And possibly a full two-thirds of the rest of the world. We could prepare for this and by becoming an Island of cash and carry sanity, in a world gone mad! Alan B.

One nuclear bomb will not destroy Israel. It will kill 10,000's, but Israel will recover and Iran will no longer be there once nuked with 100's of such bombs in return.

It would be nice to solve the Palestinian issues, but it has no connection with Iran: Iran would do anything it can to destroy Israel even if there was total peace and love between Israel and the Palestinians: the reason Iran hates Israel and will continue to hate it, is that Israel was the Shah's best ally - they will never forget, never forgive.

Yuyutsu,

There is a connection alright. Hamas is a client of Iran.

Actually this is probably the only workable solution for the middle east, & good riddance to the lot of them. At least it would stop all immigration to Oz from the area, so not all bad.

In passing, am I the only one who has noticed that those who like to refer to themselves as ethicist are the most radical lefty ratbags of all. I wonder if they speak English as a third or forth language, & don't really understand the meaning of the world?

Dear Ttbn,

The connection between Iran and Hamas is opportunistic: Iran is Shiite and Hamas are Sunni - if ever Israel is destroyed, Iran would destroy Hamas and the Palestinians next.
