If you believe that video then you must also believe Martians live on earth! The Church spends billions of dollars on promotion, the Church even pays people to become Christians, the church even facilitates getting citizenship in the west for the Muslims if they convert. The church basically is buying faith. That faith is neither good for the church nor the converts; most converts convert back as soon as the benefits dry up. These are the facts, whether you like them or not.

What a bunch of ***! Israel killed over 130 people; 22 of them children a few days before this revenge, are you telling me that they did not expect revenge? I personally believe in an eye for an eye and I think Israel owes the Palestinians lots of eyes right now.

Yossi Klein Halevi, stop blaming the rest of the world for your problems and your actions. If you don''t attack other people, they don''t attack you. Stop writing trash. Start getting some education. Research a problem before writing non-sense about it.
I am on neither side, only on the side peace, logic and reason.

IS THE GROUND GETTING READY FOR ANOTHER WAR ? IS THE MEDIA PRIMING UP ANOTHER SUPPORT FOR ATTACKING IRAN ?

This comment board looks like it could be an arm of the Aryan Nation or what Nazi Germany''''s homepage would have looked like had the internet existed...most posts here are bashing ISRAEL!! Are you kidding; Israel is a democracy that has been under siege since inception (by the UN) in 1948!! The territories they now occupied were all "won" in wars where THEY were the ones attacked. Perhaps the Arabs are sore because the Jews whooped their sally butts back to Damascus, Cairo, Baghdad, and Amman; but none of Israel''''s controlled areas today were acquired in OFFENSIVE war....


On the flip side, you should also look at what happened to Europe following WW1. Spoils of war went to victors and left bitterness in the taste of others. Consequently, it led to trouble in the form of WW2. I''m just saying that we should look at history before repeating the same errors that were made in treaties like the one signed at Versailles.

Well, at least we know why the United States is going to fight a war with Iran. I am still wondering why there had to be a war with Iraq--especially since Iraq already fought a proxy war against Iran for the United States.


I think it''s because we''re shortsighted and stupid?? As far as Iran goes, I don''t think that they can use a nuke on Israel....too much pressure on them from Russia & China for that one...it''s also precisely why we should NOT attack Iran (the threat of a massive conflict with Russia & China. We should be working heavily with those 2 on controlling Iran.

maybe israel will send their special ops team in and take irans president out and do the us and thierselfs a favor..

contd...And all these anti-Israel posts ignore that Iran is a terrorist state; supporting terrorists all over the world, fomenting civil strife in Iraq, and a regime that unlike any in history, has an ideology that would consider the armageddon that would result from nuclear war to be a POSITIVE as it would usher in the era of the 12th or hidden imam!! Ahmadinejad''s sect of Shiite Islam believes the Madhi will return only in a time of extreme strife; to save humanity and useher in Islamic utopia. Keep that in mind when you say Iran having nukes would be no big deal. And I''ll reiterate, Iran is the CENTRAL BANK OF TERRORISM, without Iran, Hezbollah, the Mahdi Army in Iraq, Hamas, and Islamic Jihad would all not exist!! These gangs of killers are bought and paid for by this terrorist mullahocracy!! Al Qaeda is also assisted by Iran under the mantra "enemy of my enemy is my friend"; AQ could exist without Iran, but don''t think for a second they don''t get valuable aid and safe haven/passage from Iran (where is Bin Laden''s son and military chief? Tehran!!). Focus on the real problem nation, Iran, not on our democratic ally Israel.

By the way, I do NOT have anything against the imprisoned population of Iran, or any people of the nations mentioned! This world needs fixing, but I can assure that Islam will NOT survive even the attempt to fix it THEIR way.
Nor will WE.
