    You are a paranoid Manichaean.

    I oppose Israel, as much as I oppose any state that defines an existance of ethnic purity and religious background.

    I see this as advocating "regeime change" in favor of an indigenous majority. This is a position the United States has backed as doctrine - with actual force, not mere expressions of support.

    Iran welcomes US tourists, FWIW. The LOVE Americans. Deep irony in this. There are no more ardent and aspirant lovers of America and its arts and intellectual productions than the Iranians.

    Now, the English, on the other hand, they suspect and resent... Except for Pink Floyd and the Rolling Sones, of course!

    You sir, are a model Soviet Citizen.

    Give me a citation of Iran threatening extermination of anyone. No, DEBKA will not do as a source.

    Whereas, who are the US and Israel ACTUALLY ENGAGED in exterminating, on a daily basis?

    Pray tell me, what kind of aircraft is in th existing arsenal, capable of delivering this turd-of-death?

    Lies.
    Propaganda.
    Boondoggle.

    The US is a klepto/crony state, with military adventureism sold as the patriotic mission, once reserved for the space program and material progress.

    And next? They'll kick off th eshooting-phase of our current, third world war. Against Iran, probably - fo rdoing less, with fewer actual hostile intentions than did India, a couple decades ago. But it isn't about "nuclear intentions" - where Iran has been meticulous in observing International treaty-law.

    "Grasshopper always wrong, in argument with chicken".
    -- Book of Chao

    Iran is one of a handful of countries that maintain an independent economic system, outside the international mechanisms for conrol of central banks. You know - like the last victims did: Libya, Iraq...

    If they want to stop brutal, mid-east regiemes, bent on subjugation and brutalization of their populations? Then the US could do worse than start with Saudi and Bahrain - or Israel.

    Fat chance. All lies, all the time, always.

    Stupidest idea ever.

    Remember when MS Office offered "short menus"? It defeated the purpose. A user can't discover functionality when it isn'rt presented for discovery through simple exploration.
