Dubai: Gulf states will not support any military action against Iran despite being wary about its nuclear programme, analysts said on Saturday.
"Saudi Arabia will not cooperate with Israel or any other country to attack Iran. We have always advocated a peaceful solution to the Iran crisis," Dr Abdul Aziz Hamad of King Saud University told Gulf News.
Saudi and US defence officials were quoted in a report in The Times as saying that Riyadh will allow Israeli jets to use its airspace if Tel Aviv decides to attack Iranian nuclear facilities.
"The Saudis have given their permission for the Israelis to pass over and they will look the other way," the London-based newspaper said, quoting a US defence source.
No support
"They have already done tests to make sure their own jets aren't scrambled and no one gets shot down. This has all been done with the agreement of the [US] State Department," the report said, quoting an unnamed Saudi official.

Meaning of Islamist
by Veiled Prophet of Khorasan on Thu Jun 17, 2010 05:07 PM PDTI use the word Islamist to distinguish it with Muslim. The term Islamist implies a radical philosophy while Muslim does not.Yes Islamist is derogatory. It is meant to be a negative statement while Muslim is not derogatory or negative.
There is no racist implication in Islamist. If I said "Arabist" that would imply a race. But not Islamist. There is nothing racist in the term Islamist.
As for being offended I am not in the business of being politically correct. Life is full of offense so that is the way it is.
Right of free speech includes right to offend. It is a most sacred of rights.
I'm welcome?
by TheEnemyHateMe on Thu Jun 17, 2010 04:37 PM PDTYou know I have a problem with you,mainly calling Islamic people Islamist's.I am offended,it's racist,it sound's derogatory.Can't we call them something else like 'Christian's or Buddhist's?

IMF Do you have any Idea how
by TheEnemyHateMe on Mon Jun 14, 2010 11:34 PM PDTIMF Do you have any Idea how many different planes of the F-Series flew over Iraq? They were all lined up in Qatar blowing flames out the back the length of Cadillac's.Damn man how do you convince a 95 pound weakling not to fight Atlas? That's all you itiot's do,then when you try to say - Hey uh,you shouldn't fight - here's the aipac isreal/zionist bullcrap.Now it's -Traitors! Do they make you wear a helmet all the time so you don't hurt yourself? Do they put a cork on the end of your fork so you don't stab yourself?Do you take your lessons from ahmady?
Mauled the mighty IDF. More comedy from Nasrallah Mil. Forum
by Irani Irani on Mon Jun 14, 2010 10:00 PM PDTDear Nasrallah Military Forum,
The number of Israeli soldiers killed during the war between Israel and Hezbollah in 2006 was about 120. Got it: 120. You consider that a "mauling"? The Israelis still control Sheba Farms, Golan Heights, and the West Bank, and the Arabs have not recovered a single inch--not one inch of those territories which are under Israeli sovereignty. When are you ever going to get that territory back? Talk is very cheap: go fight the Israelis and get that territory back, okay? You don't help your own cause much by living in a fantasy world. Losing 120 soldiers is not a "mauling". Losing the Sinai Peninsula, Gaza, West Bank, and Golan Heights in six days is a mauling. Suffering a million killed and injured fighting Saddam's inept military for 8 long years is a mauling (a military the U.S. disposed of in a few weeks like it was used toilet paper). Learn to tell the difference between fantasy and reality. Then, and only then, will you perhaps be able to defeat the Israelis. Best of luck with your jihad. Regards.
As a reminder to pop your balloons!
by IranMilitaryForum.net on Mon Jun 14, 2010 06:35 PM PDTNobody is suggesting or wishing harms on the Iranian people. After all
decent and wise Iranians would not seek refuge or residence near the
Mullahs nuke bomb sites. Hezbolllahis and supporters of the regime are
another story. In fact, I hope that for every single bomb the US planes
will drop on the mullahs nuke bomb sites (not the nuclear reactors) they
drop 10 or 20 on the mosques, religious shrines, and the residences of
the regime supporters. The more regime supporters are destroyed the
better it is for Iran, the world, and the environment, e.g., less CO2!?
Just imagine the impact of simple and cheap devices such as IEDs and EFPs on the sole superpower (nealy 6000 killed and 40,000 dismembered and badley wounded) across the middle east when facing absolutely weakest adversaries. Just imagine for a second what damage a a slightly more equipped foe will do? Then imagine Iran!
Talk is cheap and you are taking the most advantage. May be that is why you are in your rat hole as an armchair general and when some who know better (hopefully) are in Petagon!
;-)
P.S. Did I forget to mention how bunch of rag tag Lebanese militants mauled the mighty IDF and its invincibility in a hstoric lesson? I guess I did mention it now!
IRI Saeqeh planes = US F5 planes (w/ imported Chinese paint)!
by Everybody Loves Somebody ... on Sun Jun 13, 2010 05:02 PM PDTMullahs are so incompetent that they have to import their Ammameh form south Korea! How can they build jet planes?
What's the big deal: the Saeqeh will stop U.S. & Israeli attack
by Irani Irani on Sun Jun 13, 2010 04:44 PM PDTI don't know why the West-residing Rapist Groupies are so eager to praise the pedophile drug addict rulers of Saudi Arabia for "refusing" to allow Israel to fly over to bomb the Rapist Regime. After all, with the IRI's advanced Saeqeh fighter jet and other top-of-the-line IRI "indigenous" (North Korean-inspired) military hardware advertised nearly every day on Press TV, I would expect these groupies living in North America and Europe to welcome such an attack. It will provide the IRI a good opportunity to show how its military will stand up to the U.S. and Israel.
A typical reaction by a pro-regime hezbollahi...! Enshallah....!

I have to give it to you
by IranMilitaryForum.net on Sun Jun 13, 2010 04:07 PM PDTIs Israel will cleanse the Iranian mess, the foolish Iranisns created
for themselves more than 30 years ago. Then their attention will be
turned to Mecca and Medina. these two; still in the medieval times
cities, should be leveled, if we want to eradicate terrorism from
earth.
I have to give it you when credit due. You are so anally rascist and bigotted as apparent to all here even those who write complemetry comments to you. But one thing sets you appart from 99.9% of other ilks like you is that you are so honestly and proudly and oppenly overt in your intensions whereas others like you here hide behind anything from democracy to muman rights to just hide what you so oppenly advertise here. Some these charactors can be named as VPK, Iranfirst, Iranonly, mahmoudak, benross, anonymous observer to name a few.
Congradulations!

by Veiled Prophet of Khorasan on Sun Jun 13, 2010 12:35 PM PDTI agree.
Just had this discussion with a friend. You reasons are sound. I won't say it will never happen. But it is not going to happen now. Not until Afghanistan is under control. Not by Israel. When it happens will be done by the USA and not for at least a year. The bomb shelters will not be of any use except "Ab Anbar".
Watch for Taliban being wiped out first. Next they will set up an alternative to IRI and pump it up. Not sure who however I have not yet been approached :-) I would make an execllent president and fully intend to run when the time is right!
Vote: VPK
ain't gonna happen
by bushtheliberator on Sun Jun 13, 2010 12:28 PM PDTAgain,there are more proponents of US attacks on Iran at Iranian.com than in the Pentagon.The Israelis don't have the horses.I suggest you fill those bomb shelters with water, so the kids will have a place to swim.

by Anonymous Observer on Sun Jun 13, 2010 12:23 PM PDTyou are absolutely right. He doesn't read the nonsense that he posts. He gets all these links from the racket that he has set up: (iranmilitaryforum.net) where other clueless morons like himself post this garbage and he just copies and pastes the links here. I've actually found many instances where the content of the stories actually contradict what he has written in the headline. The other possibility is, of course, that he is a liar, which is quite common for his species. :-)))

As they say, "to each, his own"! In your case it means that if there are people here who buy your none-sense, so be it as this poem reflects on you and your ilks:

Iran just bombed...your family are all dead.

Go Israel! =))))
Israel is nothing but a nose bugger that has outlived it's welcome. The USA is actually not friendly with Israel and consider's them enemy #1 in regards to Israeli spies who are all over the USA.
Have you not seen the Sayanim and Katzas that work at the Mall Kiosks all over the USA asking Americans and Muslims and getting intelligence information? They want to keep tabs on American government agents and American Muslims. I just messed with some of these "Art Students" recently in the mall today. It was so fun =)
Yep, Saudis are our BFF's
