Poll: U.S. Jews back Iran strike, denominations split on Obama
Jewish Telegraph Agency (JTA)
30-Sep-2009 (30 comments)

A new survey shows that a majority of American Jews would support a U.S. military strike on Iran to prevent it from developing nuclear weapons -- a significant increase from a year ago.

Fifty-six percent of American Jews would support the “United States taking military action against Iran to prevent it from developing nuclear weapons,” according to the American Jewish Committee's 2009 Annual Survey of Jewish Opinion. That's an increase of 14 percentage points from the AJC survey taken in the fall of 2008. In addition, 66 percent of those surveyed said they would back an Israeli strike on Iran.

The survey of 800 self-identifying Jewish respondents, interviewed between Aug. 30 and Sept. 17, comes as a wide swath of Jewish organizations are rallying support in the Jewish community and elsewhere for increased economic and diplomatic pressure on Iran -- in particular tough sanctions targeting Iran's importation and production of refined petroleum. With a margin of error of plus or minus three percent, the poll would appear to undercut the claims of some who charge that Jewish organizations are out of step with the Jewish public in pushing for pressure on Iran.

Why wouldn't they?

by yek_nafar on

I am surprised that only 65% of them want to bomb Iran.  They are dealing with mullahs who want to wipe their country Israel off the map for no good reason.  What have the Jews done to Iran to deserve that? Have you asked yourself that?  I am a proud Iranian, not jewish, but I fully support Israel in defending itself against terrorist Islamists.  Nobody has suffered more from this regime than Iranians themselves.  Ask the people in Iran and you will find out that at least 65% would support bombing their own country if it is the only way to get rid of the Islamic dictatorship.

for my views on war, militarization...and yes, even your object of obsession Israel, go back and re-read (perhaps you read it before and you're just too dumb to understand it) my comment on your own post.  Here it is you nit wit:

love and kisses!

PS/ many non-Iranians can throw out a few Persian words.  It doesn't prove that you can speak, read or write Farsi.

No!

by Shah Ghollam on

Wow, why all the profanity, little buddy?

must have touched a nerve there, ha?!!!! :-)

No, I just had to remove your doubts in my Farsi competency by using some intimate farsi. Anything else in farsi would be too polite and undeserving for your caliber. I am glad you got the message! ;0)

We are still awaiting your comments on te article here. It seems anything but cheap shots is too much to ask from you and your cronies!

Another cheap shot and another distraction

by Shah Ghollam on

Now, even though this idiot Gholam constantly accuses me of being an sraeli agent, I am not going to accuse him of being an IRI agent, because unlike him, I do not slander people without having my facts straight.  But the IRI does have a huge internet propaganda operation that monitors sites and spreads misinformation and propaganda.  Here's an article about it:

How interesting! did you decide not to slander people when you got up this morning? What does that say about you passed slandering to whomever you deemed a problem for the crap you and your gang is spreading @ Iranian.com? I guess today was the day that you 'Tobeh kardi' or for that matter we can say 'Ghalat kardi'. That is not so bad. If i am not wrong, Islam allows you to give up and 'Tobeh kon'. In spite your outright lie that you did not engage in this behaviour before, i am willing to see how true you are. now that you are at it could you convince your croniies here to do the same?

Nice cheap shot though to both of your points to accuse me of being an agent again and claiming that I don't know Farsi. Incidently, many Iranians in the US cannot read and write Farsi, in case you did not know. I had many of such students in my classes. But let's see if you understand farsi 'Ahmagh khodeti' ! Hope you got that!

The audience is still waiting to hear you on the article posted here. Do you have anything but distractions to say? I guess not!

Boldly expose Zionists, help humanity!

Too bad that Gholam-e Kahmenei here is not Iranian and cannot read Persian.  Otherwise he would know what we're talking about!

There are quite a few on this site that I suspect to be a part of that operation, but, again, I will not mention any usernames.

Exposed I.R. propagandist boldly exposed.

by پیام on

As stated for many times before (baba, get dirt out of your eyes so that you can read my full commnet), I am not afraid of you or your thug friends to admit that I am jew or esraili or afghani or what ever.

I am not in favour of esrail or felestin or any other of your buddies. I only am in favour of my own people and you clearly do not belong to that group. You may think you are Iranian, but I really doubt that reviewing your rap sheet here. Supporting thugs killing my brothers and sisters and trying to divert attention from real matters, like rape and killings and mass torturing and mass imprisonment of my fellow freedom seekers.

On the subject of i.r. threatening esrail, calling for the distruction of the zionist entity or what ever they call it these days, ever since the establishing the i.r. in Iran is prove enough that if i.r. would distroy esrail if it really had the hardware to battle esrail and it's backers. If you deny that it proves that you'r even a greater liar than AN.

 

I do not care what esrail does to felestini's. For my part they all just fight each other to death. I don't caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaare. Only thing I care about is Iran and Iranians ( by that I obviously don't mean seyyeds like yourself). Now cut the crap and stop calling everyone jew, esraili or zionist or your favoriet one zionazi. It really is becoming kind of boring for me to keep posting the same comments round and round again.

Oh BTW, FYI, I visit Iran couple times a year.

Gholam, ...., some of the most extremist anti Iranians are not Jewish, Farhad ChAkhAn himself is a good example of it. I have known him for a long time ... he thrives with hatred for Iran ... exaggerates to an appealing level ...... and he worships Israel, but he is not  Jewish.

Several of us have told him there is a lot that is wrong with IRI and he does not need to exaggerate ... but he can't help it.

I did claim

by Shah Ghollam on

that Anonymous, payam, kashani and the like don't have much to say or add except continuesly putting banners of Rape turture in post elections. In the meantime, it is amusing how these charactors blame me for 'spamming'.

Another amusing point is the claim that IRI has threatened Israel as quoted bellow:

I think that i.r. (and not the Iranian population who in my opinion and opinion of others as proven by the history of my beloved Iran, are the most peacfull folk on earth), has threatened esrail all the way from establishment of the i.r. a zillion time more than the zionist regime has threatened i.r..

Give me a break! Where have you been? I suppose if you have spent most of your time in Tel Aviv, and listening to Israeli state propaganda , you should then be thinking like you do which has no facts asociated with the claim. When was the last time Iran threatene to attack Israel? prove it !!!! but i can give you countless of references where israel threatened Iran even with nukes. Israel is the country in desperation mode not Iran, this is a globally proved fact!

I think that i.r. tries to score points and use esrail as an excuse to spread it's influence all around middle east. I think that if you decide to go for world power deal like i.r. is doing, it must take in to account the consequenses of it's "shoar's" and don't cry the whole time that it has done nothing wrong and there is no proof that it is having secret plans to accuire nuclear weapon technology.

First, only an Israeli Jew writes Israel as 'esrail' like you did. So, we now have a fact where you are coming from in spite all your claims here.

Further, No, Iran is not trying to use Israel as an excuse, rather, the constant massacares of Palestinians, the 60 year occupation of sveral millions of innocent and defensless people and other widespread crimes against humanity creates a grave yard for Zionists, not the IRI. In fact, it is the the Zionists who for the past thirty years have used IRI to further their own crimes and use it as a new excuse to continue their crimes against humaity by buthering even more palestinian women and children.

(and not the Iranian population who in my opinion and opinion of others as proven by the history of my beloved Iran, are the most peacfull folk on earth)

 The fact that Iranians are kind and compassionate is a generally true statement but apparently you and your buddies haven't aquired and iota of that vast source of Iranian heritage if you constantly stand with the Zionists (remind you in my opinion, you are one, no doubt about that) in their crimes against humanity, in their occupation, in their accusations against Iran and Iranians and so forth. Where is your 'Iranian'? That is darn good question to ask. Wraping yourself(s) in Iranian flag does not at all convert you automatically to an Iranian!

In sum, you and your clan here, are acutely sensitive to two aspects of Iran, her nuclear energy and her growing popularity in the middle East. This is exactly what the whole Zionist infested media puts on airways. That is why your group here is so sensitive about, it is hard not to notice your parroting scripts from Tel Aviv.

Iran's nuclear progress along with its popularity in the region can only be harmful to Israel and her demonic ideals not Iran or Iranians, that much you can take to the bank and cash it! 

May I wish you a good night in 'esrail'! 

Boldly expose Zionists, help humanity!

 

 

 


Farhad Kashani

Payam and

by Farhad Kashani on

Payam and anonymous111.2,

Guys,

First off, I like to applaud you guys for standing up and exposing IRIs propaganda perpetuated by Shah Gholam, kharamags, Bavafa, capt ayhab and their friends.

Secondly, you guys know that when people are desperate and see no favorable end in site for their survival, they become violent, irrational, aggressive and will do anything possible to seek a way out. This is exactly the case with IRI and its supporters. Since anti Semitism and anti Israelism has been a vital survival tool for IRI the last 30 years, and since IRI saw a nation rising against it and will not stop until IRI is gone, its anti Semitic propaganda has never been so intense. The whole Holocaust thing was never brought up right now, even Khomeini wouldn’t mention this issue as much as IRI mentions it now. IRI does this because it knows it will be gone soon, but its making last attempts to see if it can switch the topic and the issue to Israel. That’s what its trying to do.

So at this point, we have to be very very very vigilant and not let them get away with it. IRI and its supporters are dangerous now because they are desperate and hurt and bruised and shocked and nervous and lost all confidence and self steam.

Only a low self confident regime tries to switch the issue and divert attention for others to look bad in order for it to look good. IRI falls into that category.

IRI thinks if it talks about the fall of Israel, it will be spared and it will survive instead. That’s how arrogant and stupid they are.


Farhad Kashani

Shah gholam, You and IRI

by Farhad Kashani on

Shah gholam,

You and IRI sound like people who have constipation, you are sitting on the toilet and trying hard till you turning blue, but nothing is happening. That’s the case with your anti Semitic propaganda.

For 30 years, you had mouth diarrhea spitting anti Semitic propaganda. You didn’t fool anyone, if anything, it backfired and back lashed big time. After our people’s uprising, you have intensified that propaganda because you are desperate to hold on to your anti Israeli survival tool thinking that would save IRI from its inevitable fall.

The question is not why “Jews” hate IRI, its not only “Jews” who want to see IRI and its supporters go to hell, but why the vast majority of shite Iranians, sunni Iranians, many moderate Muslims, Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhist, Atheists,,and all in between wnna see IRI go., because maybe your birdbrain is not helping you understand, but they understand that IRI is the biggest threat to world peace, and Jews, specifically, want IRI to go to hell, because IRI started its war on Jews and Israel, not on behalf of the Iranian people, but on behalf of bunch of fascist Mullahs and mullah lovers like you.

Since you have a mind of a 5 year old kid, let me makes this simple: When IRI starts messing with people, it should expect retaliation. That’s what you get for messing with someone, for absolutely no reason or benefit to the Iranian people.

You really make my day everytime you post or comment here. As admitted before I do work for Mosad and CIA and am on several payrolls from Washington and Tel Aviv.

And to bavafa:

I think that i.r. (and not the Iranian population who in my opinion and opinion of others as proven by the history of my beloved Iran, are the most peacfull folk on earth), has threatened esrail all the way from establishment of the i.r. a zillion time more than the zionist regime has threatened i.r.. I think that i.r. tries to score points and use esrail as an excuse to spread it's influence all around middle east. I think that if you decide to go for world power deal like i.r. is doing, it must take in to account the consequenses of it's "shoar's" and don't cry the whole time that it has done nothing wrong and there is no proof that it is having secret plans to accuire nuclear weapon technology. And sending it's "nocheh's" like Shah Ghollam here to divert attention from the fact that what great liars and thugs these people are and put some half cooked story ( by quoting every source he can get his hand's on, sources that are denied to Iranians in Iran) about everyone that hates and disagrees with these killers to be a zionist agent or a zionist conspirator.

In case of i.r., world leaders are no fools. They know that where there is smoke ( in this case a government of liars, rapers and killers in power in Iran) there must be fire. In other words, these killers that even don't have mercy on their own people, can not be trusted. Current regime in Iran can not be trusted and i.r. is what must be wiped of the face of the earth. What happens to esrail or felestine honestly doesn't concern me at all.

Btw, i.r. can flex his muscles all he wants, the world knows in what poor shape it's military "might" is and firing some fire crackers once in a while will not change a bit about that ( reffering to i.r. copy of North Korean strategy and technology of shooting rockets every once in a while).

Boy o boy, that is some long lecture :)

On the fact that any attack by esrail is in advance provoked by muscle flexing of i.r. leaders ( your dady AN and his dad sed ali geda). I have told you before and tell you once again that I personally condone any military action on Iran, by whom it might be.

You are on the record on several occasions. we all know exactly what you think. And again, parroting tel Aviv line to any observer is nothing to be a Zionist. You have dug your own graves. Incidently, If you were really concerned about your "brothers and sisters", you would jump like a dog and bite the hell of any writer who constantly propagates attacking Iran not to talk in concert !

Payam: with all due respect

by Bavafa on

Do I understand your position and logic correctly that if Iran (IRI and/or Iranians) use a language/action/mad dog diplomacy that they would retaliate if attacked, that is an instigation for attack and the sole responsibility is on them?

Can you suggest what course of action Iran should take in regards to the threats that is coming from Israel?

So far, all threats that I have heard from Iranian side has been retaliatory (in respond to attach) which to me it means defense, and all threats that I have heard from the Israeli side, it has been preemptively towards Iranian nuclear facility.

Is Israel, a nuclear power to decide if Iran should have the same technology (civilian use or not)?

How typical the way you respond. Once again you show how mature you can be in discussion when faced with hard facts. First thing you do is conduct a personal attack on the person who has a diffrent opinion than you. Call him names and so on. Just like your thug friends who kill and rape my brothers and sisters on the daily basis.

How old are you anyway, mentally I would say around 6.

How interesting!

by Shah Ghollam on

Your actions to divert attention from the horrofic acts of violence committed by your masters toward focusing on an inevitable military attack on Iran, instigated by zionist and jew concpiracy, are futile. Even if one dares to attack Iran, you and your masters carry full responsobility since you are the ones kicking around like some bully and telling the world how great i.r.'s military is and bla bla bla.

Zionist and Jew onspiracy? Listen dude, i did not write that article, in fact I have had nothing to do with it except to post it here. It from a jewish/Zionist source work done by Jewish/Zionist individuals and i just post it then get blame for conspiracy theory? You are either mentally deficient or purposely trying to divert attention from the reality.

And you have no shame to blame the killed masses by a possible Zionists attack on Iran. As I said before, this is excactly what the Israeli politicians have been saying recently all over the media, that is, If we attack Iran and Iranians are killed it is the fault of Iranian government. You are, expectedly, parroting the exact line and blaming me why I call people like you paid agents of Zionists who come her cloaked as Iranian patriots and as Shahis, MKO members or even the members of Iranian Greens. You people make every one of these groups look bad. If I were members of any of these groups I would immediately put a good distance between myself and people like like. In the long run people like you, Kashani, Fred, Iranfirst, anonymous111 are all bunch of anti Iranian racists working for someone else's interests but Iran or Iranians. It is very hard to prove otherwise!!!!!

by Shah Ghollam on

There is very little Zionist appologists such as kashani can really defend here. I did not make up that news and no matter how  kashani and alike may like to mask it by "NA GAZA, NA LEBANON, JAANAM FADAYEH IRAN " it is a true story by a jewish source asking the Jews aound country for polling on the subject matter.

There is no way one can beat around the bush, it is what it is. We have had several articles (not just this one) from jewish sources that have consistantly expressed their wish for Iran to be bombed, put on severe sanctions and even use nuclear weapons against Iran. Such news were not made in Iran or elsewhere but in USA and Jewish sources.

How ridiculous of a tactic that is to say over and over again "NA GAZA, NA LEBANON, JAANAM FADAYEH IRAN " but in reality whole heartedly wishing Iran to be badly hurt including with nuclear weapons!

Mr. kashani, you are exposed !!!!

Has anyone here noticed how the media focus shifted from President Ahmedinejad’s support of UN charges of Israeli war crimes committed in Gaza when it was suddenly announced that Iran had a second, “hidden” facility (that was in plain sight of our spy sattelites and has been know about since the first shovel of dirt was excavated during the Bush admin.)?  Funny how quickly the media reacts to scripts it is given.
