Dear Steven,

From my understanding, Iran is developing
nuclear power plants not weponry,
as already exist in Europe
and other countries. Just because Iran is
an Arab country and Israel considers it a
threat everybody is presuming that Iran is
developing nuclear weapons. Israel is reputed
to have nuclear weaponry and they refuse to
deny or confirm it and if Iran were to acquire
nuclear weaponry it would generate a major
catastrophe. It's doubtful whether Iran would
risk self-destruction.

Well Steven, it would be nice to think you are right.
However what if they really believe that a nuclear response would send
them to paradise, or that Allah would stop the retaliatory missile
from working. After all suicide bombers believe all that !

Israel is the threat.Israel has 200 nukes and the means to deliver them.Under the non proliferation treaty, it is Israel that should have sanctions laid against it.

Israel is trying to get the USA to do it's dirty work.It has nothing to do with nukes,but taking the oil just like that did in Iraq.

Foxy,

--Iran is not developing nuclear weaponry.

--George Bush did not have Iraq's oil reserves on his mind when he ordered the invasion of that country.

--Lehman Brothers did not manipulate their balance sheet to hide the parlous state of the company.

--In fact all the world's bankers behaved with the utmost probity in the run up to the global financial meltdown.

--Cigarettes do not cause cancer.

--The Easter bunny exists.

--I have a bridge for sale. Are you interested?

BTW, Iran is not an "Arab country."

Bazz

You have been taken in by Muslim propaganda.

The mullah's who run Iran are not "holy men" ready to sacrifice their lives for the cause and for 72 virgins. They are a mafia of thieving thugs who live very well thank you. They are no more prepared to get vaporised than the old Soviet nomenklatura were willing to sacrifice their dachas to advance communism.

Shadow Minister,

Since the start of the Islamic kleptocracy in 1979 presidents have come and gone. What has remained constant is the mullah mafia that runs the country – initially under Khomeini and since his demise under Khameini. As recent events have shown they are prepared to be as ruthless in maintaining their power as Kim Jong Il in North Korea.

Sanctions will not work so long as China and Turkey go on investing in Iran and buying its oil and gas.

Dear Steven,

You're right. Iran is Aryan!
Maybe that's why it's considered a threat
by its neighbours?

As for your other references.
I need more evidence please? ;-)

The key to peace with Iran is Admiral Mullen{Joint Chiefs of Staff).Relationships between the US Military and Israel have cooled recently.In Aug 2009 and Feb 2010 Mullen has gone to Israel mentioning the US Liberty debacle of 1967 in which Israel carried out a false flag attack trying to sink and kill all the crew of the Liberty and blame it on Egypt,thus getting the USA attack Egypt in the 6 day war.

Just recently Admiral Mullen was asked if he would allow Israeli war plane to use Iraqi air space to attack Iran.Mullen sidestepped the question and alluded to their enduring friendship.Mullen has indicated that Iran is not a nuclear threat and it's invasion will have serious consequences.

So google Admiral Mullen and see his reactions.He is the true barometer of what is happening.
