JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert proposed in talks with a U.S. Congressional leader that a naval blockade be imposed on Iran to try to curb its nuclear program, an Israeli newspaper said on Wednesday The Haaretz daily quoted Olmert as telling Nancy Pelosi that "the present economic sanctions have exhausted themselves" and the international community needed to take more drastic steps to stop Iran's efforts to obtain nuclear weapons. A spokesman for Olmert declined to comment on the Israeli leader's talks on Monday with Pelosi, the speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, in Jerusalem. "It was a confidential discussion," said the spokesman, Mark Regev.

Someone should remind Olmert he is not dealing with the

He thinks he can impose the same prison on the Iranians that his government has imposed on the Palestinians for the past 60 years. Now this is what Israel always does provoke and then cries to America see what Ahmadinejad said about Israel; "They are a threat, a threat, I am telling you they are a threat!" And daddy and mommy have to come to the rescue of the child who is always throwing a temper tantrum and give him his next toy - another F-16, to shut him up!
I would say block all oil sales to Israel and the U.S. let's see how long both will survive economically!
Typical Zionist Behavior
by nitemustfall on Wed May 21, 2008 06:59 AM PDTHow would these Zionists dare to talk about blockade of Iran while many of their nuclear arsenals reportedly are aimed at major Iranian cities. Isn’t that the reason many calling for Israel to be ... wiped off the map?
