		<description>Anti-Zionism (anti-Israel) has become a code word for anti-Semitism... since anti-Semitism is not politically correct.  Of course I have a sense that the proscription against anti-Semitism isn’t as strong as it was in former days.
.
Israel’s non Jewish friends usually have some agenda; the fundamentalist Christian support is based upon their interpretation of the biblical “rapture” scenario.  Various democracies in the West are interested in trade, indigenous Jewish votes, etc.  But Meir Kahane was right; when the chips are down, the only person Jews can rely upon are other Jews.  It is sad, and surely self-harming, that some fractions of Jews think the others are “not real Jews.”  Just remember, the non-observant, the Reformed and the Orthodox all went up the same chimney.</description>

		<description>Hammid, don&#039;t be a lying joker.  The Iranian press reported on Achmedinejad&#039;s comments and translated them as &quot;wiped off the map&quot; just like the western translators did.  This was and still is available on the Iranian state media website.  I won&#039;t bother posting the link because you already knew this was true, you deceptive coward.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t really tell for Christians, but from my experience American Protestants, Baptists, and Catholics are very anti-Semitic generally. Now that&#039;s called anti-Israeli. The Evangelicals are different in that regard.
Basically, I don&#039;t see a reason why Christians would cease being anti-Semitic by a mere act of moving from Europe to North America two centuries ago.</description>

		<description>The world does not hate the Jews; Israel enjoys a very strong position among American Christians. That said, I do agree that pagan, liberal Europe has their heads firmly in the sand as do liberal dhimmis in the US. The above new religion chump is a prime example of how relativist values blind such arrogant morons to anything close to the truth; quite unwilling to bow to a Superior authority, they pretend that truth does not exist. And because of their moral irresponsibility and vast mis-judgment of human nature, the nature of Islam (pure evil, wicked lie) they are also unwilling to confront it because, after all, why lose my life for something that is not true, they say. Moral cowards and physical cowards.

As for the Swedish Iranian, what kind of a culture seeks to attempt to cast fear into the hearts of Americans? Great religion, there, loser. How about apologizing for taking Americans hostage back a few decades ago? And guess what? Iran doesn&#039;t scare us. We can and will throw Iran out with the trash that it is.

I love this site. I&#039;ll be back.</description>

		<description>The bush administration has spent more money than all the previous administrations put together. War is expensive. It is irrational to say they are fighting to get rich. The USA is in serious, maybe terminal; debt. Iran and Iraq arn&#039;t exactly kissing cousins. There is a serious sh&#039;ite -sunni rift there. One faction...the one going nuclear, believe that they must create an apocolyptic event before there future leader climbs out of a well (Mohammed returning?). These things are not a secret. Iran funds terrorism, but not quite as much as the E.U through funds paid to the P.A. 
Israel needs to be proactive because the rest of the world is too easily manipulated by being told that we arn&#039;t being very nice. God be with you, Israel. [MODERATED]</description>

		<description>Hammid -- Are you saying that Ahmadinejad did NOT say &quot;wipe Israel off the map&quot;?  If he said it, I don&#039;t see how there is much room for misinterpretation.  
===
As for what governments would do and how crazy they are, that is the good thing about the godless communists, like the Soviet Union, the Chinese and the North Koreans:  They do not believe in an afterlife, so they really do not want to blow up the planet.  Ahmadinejad, however, not only believes in the afterlife, he also believes that he can help hasten the return of the &quot;Mahdi&quot; by starting Armaggedon.  He is insane.
===
Also, for those who are somehow unaware, let me point out the obvious:  The US mainstream media HATE President Bush and were and are still against the war in Iraq (and anything else the President does).  This is why we can be sure 9/11 was NOT an inside job -- the media would expose it to take Bush down.
===
I personally do not like President Bush&#039;s policies on many issues.  That being said, money, in and of itself, is not evil.  Even if that were his only motivation (which I do not believe), that cannot be compared to a nut-case like Ahmadinejad&#039;s motivation to bring about the end of the world so his &quot;Savior&quot; can climb back out of a well.</description>

		<description>Oh, I got a good laugh out of this.
Yes, the Americans are always the evil ones.
Just tell me, Hammid - If Iran is such a responsible and well-wishing country, why are you living in Sweden?</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t even see why western countries and Israel fear my homeland Iran... And why Iraq should.
We have jews living in harmony with other Iranians in Iran itself.
And YES, the controlled mass-media has misintepretated Ahmadinejad regarding &quot;wipe Israel off the map&quot;...

That&#039;s an illusion the controlled media want&#039;s the people of the United States of America to yet once more live in fear.
Can&#039;t you see the repeating pattern, especially ever since their dearest inside-job 9/11?

Israel, fear not. I know my people too well and I am a guy with great sense of this world. (yes, laugh all you can if that seems amusing)

Btw, do you really think either Pakistan or North-Korea would just &quot;use&quot; their nuclear weapons in any way they see fit?...
People ARE not that crazy, at least not governments...
North-Korea wouldn&#039;t stand a chance and neither would Pakistan.

But the Bush-regime is, and all they care about is money, money, money... and yet more money.</description>
