#1 Israel: They've warned you and they're dead serious. They mean to finish what Hitler started. Shoot first while you still can!

#2 "Israel is capable of dealing alone with the Iranian threat even if sanctions don't work,"

And after the dealing which is bound to come very soon;

"Israel is capable of dealing alone with the" inevitable UN sanctions, seething, pi**ing and moaning. Let it begin, let it be so!

#3 I feel the anticipation inside me, knowing that one day I'll hear the beautiful words over the television
'Irans nuclear program has been taken out by...'
It's all quite exciting!!!

#4 I hate to disagree but Israelis have told me that a couple of accurate heavy missiles could take out half of Israel's electrical resources. In that event, they would have to weigh the fact that they would be destroyed if rebuilt. Either Hizbollah and Ayatollah power is totally destroyed by 2008, or Israel's days are numbered. I am concerned about moronic defenses of Shiite power, as championed by the Wall Street Journal and other effetes. Shiites are the worst enemy that America has ever faced. The Nazis and Communists did not have the will to face US retaliation. It is time to undo Jimmy Carter's scorpion feeding and rid the world of Ayatollah power.

#5 I dunno about that. AQ and the Talibunnies are Sunni. I don't there is much difference between Sunni and Shiite, compared with the vast gulf between Islam and any decent social order.

It's like communism. Does it really matter if it's a Maoist or Stalinist regime setting up the death camps?

#7 TROLL ALERT, CLEANUP AISLE 6

#8 Mr Lieberman however endorsed international economic sanctions, saying they can be very effective. "Unlike North Korea, Iran has a financial community which counts some 50 or 60 families on which the sanctions must be focused," he said.

This is an easy military situation but a tricky diplomatic one. I believe we are waiting for them to over step the line.

There's always middle man to bypass that sanctions, and 60 rich families won't be firing nuclear missiles.

We need to declare Irans President an outlaw if he continues to develope in less than a month.

Then after a fair warning and more intelligence, to directly blow up their nuclear facilities and expect a counter-attack.

As of now, the US needs to shore up more diplomatic support to justify it.

I suspect Israel isn't really working alone.

Troll,
no way will I ever be scrubbing your toilet seat, nor will I ever be a sweeper / sweepress. (you even use a toilet seat?)

Using your logic, God made everything and everybody. So why is it you want to destroy a people that God created. Who made you judge and jury?

I truly feel very sorry for you that you probably will never ~~finger~~ figure it out.

#16 Trolly,

The fact that you would expect us to take your views seriously, on subjects upon which the greatest minds in history have disagreed, is evidence of narcissism on your part. Reasonable people tend to look at what sorts of societies different philosophies have produced. It is hardly likely that many reasonable people would consider Islam to be particularly superior. If more Muslims would make as much effort improving their own societies as they do telling everybody else what to think and do, they might not spend such a large portion of their lives simmering in a state of self-pitying rage. Think about it, Trolly.

#18 Ignoring the troll for a minute, do you really think that Olmert will ever allow the IDF to unleash their weaponry, prior to a firsdt strike by Iran or Syria? I do not think so, so for all the good Strategis Affiars Minister's statements, he is not the top dog; maybe one of the smartest, but not the toppest. Now if Olmert leaves office, by whatever means, then I should think the bad guys better move their own personal Doomsday clock a bit closer to midnight, because I think the gloves will come off. Quickly.
