During a little-noticed speech at the University of Chicago on Tuesday, John Bolton suggested a way to resolve the controversy over Iran's nuclear program: Israel should launch a nuclear attack on Iran. Speaking to the University Republicans and the Chicago Friends of Israel, Bolton, George W. Bush's hawkish ambassador to the United Nations, said, "Unless Israel is prepared to use nuclear weapons against Iran’s program, Iran will have nuclear weapons in the very near future." Bolton has repeatedly declared that Iran's nuclear program is unacceptable. Given that he holds this position, his contention that the only way to prevent a nuclear Iran is with a nuclear attack appears to be a backdoor endorsement of just such a strike.

Shepesh jaan, Aziz, of
by Farhad Kashani on Sun Oct 18, 2009 08:01 AM PDTShepesh jaan,
Aziz, of course no one wants war. Who said anyone wants war on their homeland? I said it a thousand times, IRI would not be removed with an Israeli attack, nor the desired goal of destroying IRI nuclear weapons sites will be achieved. Only result of an Israeli attack is innocent Iranians, already dying under the IRI regime, parrishing.
However aziz, this is a war of propaganda jaanam. For 30 years, IRI has diverted attention from itself to Israel. Please ask these people why on an Iranian site, with mostly Iranian audience, about the country with itself being the center of news with all that is going on in Iran, they come around and bash absolutely non related news about some Israeli soldier killing some Palestinian? Aziz jaan, its propaganda, its survival tool for IRI and its goons. They have to do this to divert attention and gain support. It will make them look righteous, where as, they are the most un-righteous regime out there. and if we let them look righteous, then, we have lost the battle to them. Please be vigilant.
We have to stand up to every single piece of propaganda they post. It is crucial and vital, thats if you want to see Iran liberated.
Capt ayhab,
This is propaganda and we all know it. And we will stand up to it. What Israel has killed in Palestinians for 60 years now, IRI has killed innocent Iranians in one shot, and they have been having countless "shots" like that ince 1979. So whos more bloodthirsty? When did Israel say it wants to destroy Iran? Ha? you know when IRI said it wants to destroy Israel? as we speak! So whos fault is this animosity?
The reality is since IRI is not elected and not legitimate, thus, it does not see itself in the role of serving the Iranian people, as the role of a government is. Because of that, it has its own fundamentalist, war mongering and clash of civilizations initiating agenda that the ultimate loser of all of it is the Iranian people. Go ahead and support that agenda. The Iranian people who their enemy and who their friends are. You choose.
Shah Gholam, As I told
by Farhad Kashani on Sun Oct 18, 2009 07:51 AM PDTShah Gholam,
As I told you before, you are doing Israel hell of a favor by showing that people like you who have dedicated their life to satisfy their anti Semitic desires, have absolutely no sense of rationing or logic.
Of course Bolton is the blood thirsty! Obviously you totally missed a million dead and wounded in Iraq.
It is well proven now that the imaginary “1 million” causality number is made up by anti American Leftist media and groups around the world. That’s another attempt to discredit America, where as, ones who make up things and fabricate realities, like you and your beloved IRI regime does, are the ones who are always discredited. But you know what, lets go with that number, lets make it 2 million, how’s that? Ok, so, it’s the American soldiers who wear woman’s cloth and strap bombs to themselves and go to busy markets blow themselves up killing countless women and children, right? It is American soldiers who blow up cars in busy streets butchering innocent bystanders? It is American soldiers, and not IRI-inspired and supported Islamist death group members, who go to Shite or Sunni neighborhoods, bring people out of their houses, mostly families, and start shooting at them in mass executions, correct?
I mean, honestly, how out of touch can you possibly be to try to twist such reality? How much out of touch? There is only one explanation: you must be a conspiracy theorist Lefty to think that it is in fact American soldiers who are doing those, but “Zionists” tell us something different, isn’t that right Shah Gholam???!!!
Of course he is right, he is as confused as you are. Israel is the greatest threat to humanity as the International polls indicate time after time.
As always, an outrageous attempt to twist reality, simply outrageous, but not surprising coming from an IRI supporter. Even when Bush was president, and Leftist forces around the world were having a blast creating this non sense of anti Bush culture, polls showed that most people around the world consider the Fascist IRI regime as the greatest threat to world peace, mainly because of its pursue of nuclear weapons. In reality it’s that also, but mainly its promotion and inspiration of Islamic Fundamentalism death culture.
Iran is not the only regime that oppresses its own people, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, Morroco, Bahrain, Oman, Yemen all allies of the West have a longer history in this regard but Mr. Bolton singles out Iran. It is only Kashani and Zionists can claim that the US or Israel are defending their countries against Iran when both countries carry enough nukes to anhilate mankind many times over.
You are so out of touch, it’s really sad. I don’t even know where to start. First off, have you ever flown from Iran to one of those countries you mentioned, lets say, Bahrain? Well, I have. And let me tell you what I saw. I saw Iranian women taking that medieval Chador and roosari out as soon as the plane exits Iranian territory as a sign of rejection of that medival dress code imposed by the IRI regime on half of our population, and as a proof that Iranians do not enjoy their basic freedoms in Iran, but they can get elsewhere, for example, Bahrain, a country that you mentioned. Also, speaking of Bahrain, in Iran, Jews are oppressed; most left the country, and the remaining live as 2nd class citizens and the remaining get arrested for “spying for Zionists”! In Bahrain, they get to position as high as ambassador to the United States! A women too! Name me 1 Jewish woman ambassador that Iran has. Actually, name me one Jewish ambassador period. Better yet, name me one woman ambassador!
Second, so “West” (I’m sure you mean America!) has some “bad” allies, like Bahrain that I just mentioned (!!). Well, America also has the most democratic countries of the world as its main allies, like England, Australia, Japan, Canada, France, S Korea, ..and others. So it’s combo. What about IRI? Let me tell you who IRIs main allies are: China, Russia, Zimbabwe, Syria, Chavez, Cuba. I’ll save you the embarrassment and not gonna pull their record. OK. Consider that a favor. Name me one democratic country that IRI is an “ally” (not just having relations) of.
Shah Gholam, the problem with you is that you simply haven’t gotten the memo yet. There were some other IRI supporters like you also here before June 12th. Now, they have disappeared or are in shock, because THEY GOT THE MEMO.
Once you get the memo, you will see the light. Until then, all you’re doing is keep digging a bigger hole for yourself.
Well
by Shah Ghollam on Sat Oct 17, 2009 11:35 PM PDTTo shah gholi, go play with your khamenei and AN action figure dolls please. Let the grown ups have a conversation for once.
Gee, I did not know in the Democracy you vision for Iran people can self appoint and include themselves to any board they wish. If you are a member of the grown up I wonder what your appointed teenagers are.
Amir1973
That is true, but since 1979 the IRI has executed a lot more people than even those rotten dictatorial regimes!
Really? care to provide proof? Also, how much news of this sort would the US like to allow to see propagated in the US? In other words such bad news from the countries that are under total control of the US would generate a lot of unwanted questions by the Americans perhaps, No? So, claims are easy but proof would be when you really talk.
In your many posts on this website, how often have you criticized the IRI for oppressing Iranians? For killing them, raping them, jailing them, beating them, censoring them, and depriving them of basic rights? Also, this website is called Iranian.com
I do not have to tear IRI apart to prove my machoism like a good load of people here, in case you have not noticed. In general, I am much more worried about bigger external dangers than internal. If I have learned one thing by living at the heart of "the West" that is there is absolutely no humanity for any other country seen thorugh Western policies. Furtunately, more and more Iranians are becoming aware that any compassion coming from the Western media and or politicians is nothing but for self interest. The Western nations would love to have ALL Iranians gassed, nuked or somehow perished to their delight. One can fool himself/herself and romantisize with such terms as Democracy, Freedom, Human rights,......but at the end of the day such luxeries are seen by westerners as reserved excusively for them. I am open to history to prove me otherwise. That is why I do abstain washing my dirty laundry with IRI in Western press since I know how it will be used againt Iran and Iranians. It is a famous trait for Western countries to gather sympathizers from any nation that they deem as enemy just to begin their invasions, subversions and so on to anhilate that country/nation. I believe Iran is high on such agenda and decend among Iranians will only hurt Iran and Iranians as it has in the passed 2500 years. Divide and rule is a terminology that Iranians do not have any excuse not to understand especially at this point of history. Vigilance is far more needed today than the passed 100 years of Iranian modern history.
Again, you will fail to recruit me as one of many here who out of shear passion for Iran or those fake individuals with alterior motives who write against IRI to benefit Iran's enemies. I have been there and done that! Besides, it appears that this anti IRI pack does not need my help at Iranian.com.
You do what you believe in as I do but in the end it is the history to prove who is right or wrong. I will take that risk conciously with full conviction! If you or anyone on the opposition group is truley for Democracy, then you all HAVE TO swallow an opposite view, this would be a good little test as how much are you dedicated to Democracy you believe in!!!!!!!

cap, I keep asking myself...
by Ostaad on Sat Oct 17, 2009 11:57 AM PDTwhat is Bolton official position in ANY executive and policy organs of the US government, and I keep coming up empty handed.
This guy was not supported by a SINGLE member of congress, neither was he even nominated for his UN post. He was shoehorned to his post during a congressional recess, and when it came to be confirmed, no one voted for him!
So why are we wasting our time on what this "SOB" drops here and there? Why?
To Shah Ghollam
by AMIR1973 on Sat Oct 17, 2009 08:58 AM PDTDon't pay any attention to the moron Bolton.
by پیام on Sat Oct 17, 2009 08:52 AM PDTHe is a member of the neo-con Basij, Washington branch headquarter. The time of Bolton likes ( like Khamenei and co.) are numbred. No one but hezbollahi's in Iran ( and abroad like Gholi jan), pays any attention to their stupid idea's. The world has changed and these war mongerers have no place in the new world.

No way no how you can find anyone in current history who has more blood in their hands than Israeli genocidal rulers.

Of course Bolton is the blood thirsty! Obviously you totally missed a million dead and wounded in Iraq.
Is Bolton wrong to say that IRI is the biggest threat to world security?
Of course he is wrong, he is as confused as you are. Israel is the greatest threat to humanity as the International polls indicate time after time.

This sort of claims don't find byers no more.
But, here, we are already too familiar with Kashani and how he reasons things out!
Kashani, why don't you tell us how old you are and what is your religion? Aren't you proud of your age or your religion? Are you ashamed to tell us? Time to be a little honest!
Khamenei is the real bloodthirsty monster

It is IRI who is war mongering, so, if you stand up to IRIs war mongering, you're bloodthirsty? Of course Bolton is wrong to say attack Iran for many reasons, but why you calling him that? Are you trying to take responsibility away from the IRI regime?
Those tricks don't work anymore. Everything that the people whom you on the Left call "Neo Cons" said about the regime turned out true. When the Left was dead silent on IRI atrocities against the Iranian people, and IRI destructive role in the world, Neo Cons had the ba..s to come out and say whats right. and they turned out correct, and you guys turned out wrong.
