    Im no great fan of Iran, but i wouldnt mind seeing Israel get a bit of a shoe-ing to be honest.

    If Israel attack, I dont think anyone could really dispute the Iranians right to return fire surely? I still think its a big IF though, I cant see them trying it anytime soon, despite all the recent hoo-har.
    The Mods stole my post count!

      So I take it you feel that the Palestinians in Gaza deserve their suffering because of course Isreal does not really mean to harm them. It just happens by mistake.

      Grow up.

      .. and I thought we were discussing IRAN and nuclear weapons. Oh dear, yet another of the PC brigade comes out of the woodwork.

        Thats because you dont see the connection between Iran and Israel.

        Bottom line is Israel as just as trigger happy. So if they can have nuclear power, then fair play to Iran.

        Or dont you see the logic there?

        Oh I forget, if someone breaks into your house, you probably help them load their van!

          I've not heard Israel threatening to wipe Iran off of the face of the earth. I think also that as Israel have had nuclear weapons for decades they might also be a little more trustworthy. Still, the PC brigade knows best !!

            Oh please. Trustworthy?? Thats a good one.

            Anyways I doubt that Israel or the USA aka World Police Force would try and do anything in Iran. This is a cat and mouse game.

            BTW .... its the USA and "allies" who always say that unless Iran stop nuclear programmes then they face the consequences.

            Thats not threatening of course.

            Guess yet another Sun reader! Oh well!

              If Iran were to take its oil supplies off the market, I would say that would be a suffiently destabilizing act of aggression against the free World to justify, indeed demand, regime change and reconstruction.

                Are you saying that if someone refuses to sell you what is theirs you use force to get it??

                Sounds like it.

                    I believe that is a principle that the US government has found very useful, and am sure they will again.

                      I'll settle for them not trading with us if they will abandon building nuclear weapons. They simply cannot be trusted despite what the PC brigade say.
