Hmmm, I wonder what shade of crazy this one will turn out to be.

“After the election, Iran will continue to be judged by its acts, in the nuclear field as well as that of terrorism,”

Fecking lol if anyone judged Israel by its acts, we would have to send all its military/political leadership to a nice war crimes tribunal (maybe a new one at Nuremberg).

@3 Ah, yes. Attacked by the armies of FOUR countries, with contingents from others, on the day after you declare independence. DECLARED by a bunch of fanatical, 7th century, mindless, terrorist nutjobs to be a place to be wiped off the face of the planet. Despite the FACT that Israel's right to the land it occupies goes back 3,000 years. Between 1939 and 1945, Britain did many things in support of its principles against a regime that was fanatical, racially biased, genocidal, criminal, inhuman, depraved. Islam is fanatical, racially biased, genocidal, criminal, inhuman, depraved. And, somehow, what Israel does to protect itself and its citizens is wrong? Without provocation, rockets are fired, indiscriminately, into Israel. Not aimed. Just fired in the hope they will kill or injure someone. I've met Israelis. Many have chips on their shoulders. But, if it seemed to you that most of the world wanted you destroyed, how would you feel? Not just you killed, but also your spouse, your children, your nation. Personally, I'd do whatever it took. The true criminals are Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iran. And the terrorists of Hamas, Hezbollah, the PLO and other crazies. Your anti-Israeli, anti-Jewish comments bespeak your bigotry and weak mind. Try this. If France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland declared that Britain should be wiped off the face of the planet and regularly made unaimed missile attacks, how would you feel? Assuming that you're British.

Yes i am British, which is a good reason not to trust any Israelis government. I've seen far to many interviews with the Israeli terrorists from 1945-1948 who showed no remorse for murdering British service personal. Any nation that used terrorism to create its self, has no right to moan about it.

“Despite the FACT that Israel's right to the land it occupies goes back 3,000 years” this statement is about as laughable as anything you've ever wrote Conq. Religion has no place in the real world.

And in case you missed it, Israel committed very many crimes against humanity in the last 70 years, which is weird considering what happened to the Jewish peoples during WW2 :p
