Man, its like the states back in the days when cars were cars and buildings were buildings and there wasnt any of this crappy, post-modern, lets make it out of glass in a funny shape or lets make a huge phallic building.

I know, they probably think these countries are only made of Islamic huts where groups of nutters huddle round to discuss ways of attacking the west. Iran is actually quite an open place, women enjoy many freedoms there. But sure we might aswell attack it just in case it decides to blow the earth to smithereens!

And in so doing, actually prove once again which nations actually ARE the ones with the criminal intent to blow the world (or desired portions of it, at any rate) to smithereens.

[edited to add: oh yes, everwonder, lets blow them up for undertaking actions wholly authorised under the stipulations of the NPT, whilst our own governments actually ARE openly pursuing military developments forbidden by that same treaty (along with countless other duly ratified treaties and conventions which have been called "quaint", "irrelevant", or "inapplicable" by the warmongers currently in power).]

Freedom of speech is one hell of a thing, they have a right to say that no matter how wrong it is. It's a different story if they act on their threats which I don't think they will for a variety of reasons, the main one being an almost certain American invasion and no one wants that (except the Americans)

It's no less oppressive than any other Middle Eastern country and certainly no less oppressive than Saudi Arabia, who the Americans just love to love. Hypocrosy at the highest!

So nice to sit comfy in one's UK/US armchair and dismiss the flagrant destruction of another nations' infrastructures and way of life just because our leaders claim them to be a threat. Doesnt matter that they have not launched any armed aggression against any of their neighbours let alone our own nations.

Israel has threatened to Nuke Iran SEVERAL times. Iran only wants to have the ability to defend itself, IF they develop nuclear weapons. There is NO evidence of this once AGAIN, like IRAQ'S WMD's. Iran is currently ONLY developing a POWER STATION. What, we don't want to let them have Electric?!

That also and the fact that the Iranian president is of the same mindset of the terrorist groups he funds (Islamic Jihad, Hamas, etc) - if the Iranian president starts a nuclear war he doesn’t care about the consequences, he thinks he's getting his 72 virgins...

In some countries thousands get persecuted.
In some countries hundreds.
In some a few people.

Who is going to decide whether one life or a hundred lives or a thousand lives are more valuable?
Is it acceptable for persecution to happen if it's minimal?

How can you condemn Iran when the same things happen in your own country, only on a smaller scale?

So remind me WHY we don't invade, for this reason, half the countries in Africa... infact the west largley IGNORES the far worse persecution going on there. Zimbabwe, Somalia... only the CHINESE, of all people, are helping. And then the US moans at them for their world influence!

Again. Their are worse threats in the world. North Korea for instance? And Iran would not use Nukes without a reason. Say, if it were nuked first. He isn't stupid. And it is defending itself from a country that has threatened to nuke it - Israel. I said this before. Israel, which has its nukes ILLEGALLY, has threatened to use them against Iran. Joy. When it isn't selling US technology to the Chinese, that is.

:lol: Iran has gigantic oil and gas reserves it could use to create electricity - and at a miniscule percentage of what nuclear energy would cost. Their intentions are evidently obvious to all except the gullible and Islamofascist apologists.

No, Nuclear Energy is far cheaper in the long run. It pays for itself severall times over, infact. Don't be silly. Also, the Oil is going to run out in the future. Perhaps, unlike America, Iran is thinking about the future? I mean, even Britain is most probably building more Nuclear power plants. Does that mean we intend to make 20,000 more Nuclear Missiles?

Persecution? As far as I know there are still about 30,000 Jews in Iran, shouldn't they all be in a mass graveyard by now? Read this:


Article 27 of the ICCPR deals directly with the question of religious and ethnic minorities. It states:

In those states in which ethnic, religious or linguistic minorities exist, persons belonging to such minorities shall not be denied the right, in community with the other members of their group, to enjoy their own culture, to profess and practice their own religion, or to use their own language.

Many articles of Iranian legislation outlaw discrimination on the basis of race or national origin. Article 19 of the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran states: "All people of Iran, whatever the ethnic group or tribe to which they belong, enjoy equal rights, and color, race, language, and the like do not bestow any privilege." The right of equality before the law is guaranteed in Article 3(14) of the constitution.

Articles 13 and 14 of the constitution refer to the freedom of recognized religious minorities. Article 13 states, "Zoroastrian, Jewish and Christian Iranians are the only religious minorities who, within the limits of the law, are free to perform their religious rites and ceremonies and to act according to their own canon in matters of personal affairs and religious education."Article 14 explains that, "The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran and all Muslims are duty bound to treat non-Muslims in conformity with equitable norms and the principles of Islamic justice and equity and to respect their human rights.

Persecution? As far as I know there are still about 30,000 Jews in Iran, shouldn't they all be in a mass graveyard by now?

From a thread a few days back 'Why the neo-nazis salute Iran's president'

While the regime loathes Israel, rounding up Jews would be the best way to trigger international outrage, so a surrogate enemy has been found: the Baha’i religion, which was founded in 19th-century Iran. Their ancestors converted from Islam, so they are deemed apostates; and because the Baha’i faith has its headquarters in Israel, they are wrongly accused of being Zionist or US spies. Unlike Christians, Jews and Zoroastrians — who are at least given some constitutional protection because their religions are recognised — Iran’s 300,000 Baha’is are officially ‘unprotected infidels’ or a ‘misguided sect’ and hence the lowest of the low.

Articles 13 and 14 of the constitution refer to the freedom of recognized religious minorities.

Great...if you're a recognised religious minority. Although it's a shame Article 13 and 14 aren't even observed as regard to recognised religious minorities. As you'd know if you bothered to do your research on the treatment of Sunni Muslims, Christians and Jews who are 'recognised' religious minorities. From what I've read Iranian Jews face far less persecution than non-Shia Muslims and Baha'is - although the Iranian regime floods the Iranian people with extreme anti-Semitic propaganda.

Have you been living under a rock for the past year. America has stated several times that Iran is a viable target, especially if they continue with their uranium project or whatever the fuck it is.

That's the point... :rolleyes: If Iran was not intent on developing nuclear weapons America wouldn't have any interest in invading Iran. And er even if America wanted to in terms of resources it's almost impossible. As the Iranians themselves know the Americans can't do to Iran what they did to Iraq - which is partly why they're pursuing their goal of getting a nuke.

Anyway it's pointless debating this with you. European anti-Semites are big fans of the Iranian president as we'll see from the neo-Nazi thugs marching in support of Iran at the World Cup...

He is merely amongst latest generation in a generations long hand-me-down succession of extremist, apartheid-loving, (truly anti-semitic) apologists for an exceptionalist neo-colonialist state, whose entire worldview is based on falsified, whitewashed history of the region.

Support for the rightful Palestinian inhabitants of the land (including those hundreds of thousands driven out by force and acts of Irgun and Haganah terrorism) is indeed the most pro-semitic (not to mention intellectually honest and morally consistent) stance one can adopt.

I'd love to know what the fuck someone posts in the sex boards has to do with a debate on Iran, outside of people thinking insulting or trying to humilate others is a way to debate issues.

FOR EVERYONE

You can surely manage, assuming you don't have the mental age of a water starved cod, to debate this issue without directly insulting each other - so all the snide insults can stop, on all sides, and just stick to putting your point across and if you can't well your views obviously aren't as important to you as scoring points.

Nice try Dis, but once again, rather than apply the disingenuous practices of your favorite yellow journalistic media mentors, try posting the dates when those comments were made and voila, my previous contention is justified.

Shall we tout out your sexual commentaries from an entirely unrelated forum to hijack this thread further? No, those of us with intellectual consistency and some measure of maturity recognise the irrelevance of such pathetic dodge tactics.

As if an extremist apologist for Israeli ethnocide is in any position to lecture anyone on morality! :lol:

Keep weaving and dodging boy, one day the awful truth of your immoral and misinformed ideology will catch up with you.

See that's the kind of snide, childish garbage that isn't of a high enough standard. Be the bigger man, stop this tirade of insults and talk about the issues, facts and views.

You never condemn anti-Semitism

Au contraire little man, I condemn true Anti-Semitism vehemently. It's you who chooses to ignore the true semitism of the Palestinian and indeed entire Arab population of the region and thereby the wholly ANTI-semitic policies of systematic ethnocide, daily abuse and dehumanisation inherent to your adopted and unscrutinised extremist ideology.

Oh and I made no confusion between JDL and ADL (although I did fail to include the ADL as I should have). All such organisations are a plague on the true Judaic teachings of social justice and are nothing more than neo-naziistic enterprises for another form of exceptionalistic group superiority mindset. That you support them despite their well known fascist practices of blacklists, character smears, false press, et al. (even demonstrably adopting their practices yourself in this very thread) shows your periodic avowals of support for democratic principle are entirely false.

Perhaps when you can fathom the concept of "consistency of principle" youll come to realise that mere claims of Jewishness are nothing more than a smokescreen for Zionist organisations and their most vociferous adherents to hide behind and certainly no shield against the sort of evil intent toward social and political conformity which led to such dispicable suffering generations ago. The parity between them is in their actions, not their claims.

Many intellectually and morally consistent Jews and non-Jews alike recognise Zionism for the evil it has ever been and remains to this day.

Apologies Jim, I was busy writing that post while you had already posted. Having seen it I shall attempt to tone down my frustration at Dis' nonsense.

Sorry Jim, a cheap and childish shot to take at Clan I realise.

I do not expect to change your mind Clan as I am sure you do not expect to sway me. But your characterisation of me as some kind of diehard Zionist is untrue. Like most ordinary, decent Israelis, and I'd like to think most Palestinians too I support peace. From the great people in the region I know they deserve peace and I really hope they find it.

Like a lot of people I believe in order to achieve peace the Israelis must withdraw from ideally the entire West Bank (although I accept Israel's right to secure borders make a 97 or 98% withdrawal a more realistic goal). I also believe the Palestinians must disarm their terrorist groups; Islamic Jihad needs to disarm and Hamas – well despite their acts of terrorism if they're willing to renounce terrorism, recognise Israel and embrace peaceful negotiation then the Israelis have to work with them. The absence of a Palestinian state is I think a tragedy, it should have happened in 1937 or 1947/8. It's catastrophic that it hasn’t happened since then and all sides share the blame; the surrounding Arab states as well as the Israelis and Palestinians themselves. I can't see things in black and white Clan. I don't blindly support or hate one side like yourself. Unlike yourself and the Iranian president I support Israel's right to exist. I don't see what's so extreme and ideological about wanting two states and peaceful coexistence.

You can call it what you like but I support the State of Israel and don't see anything so wrong in a tiny democratic segment in the Middle East existing. Holocaust survivors, exiled Arab Jews, oppressed Soviet Jews, Christians and Muslims have made Israel their home and despite its problems its prospered. I support the Palestinians too and I really hope a Palestinian state materialises. I hope one day you see Israel for yourself and meet some Israelis. Israel isn't perfect, I've never said it is but it's hurtful and inaccurate for it to be portrayed as the devil incarnate. The many Israeli achievements, the existence within Israel itself of Jews, Muslims and Christians living together in relative peace enjoying free speech, freedom to worship, etc is rare in the Middle East and should be treasured.

Regardless, you hate the existence of the Jewish state but can you accept its existence? Israel isn't disappearing. Get into reality Clan and maybe say something constructive.

And my hatred for Muslims and all? Whatever. That’s why I was condemning the Iranian president for his persecution of Sunni Muslims, etc.

Why won't you condemn the Iranian president for his hatred of Jews? Why can't you bring yourself to condemn anti-Semitism? Okay, forget it - I don't want to argue over the word. We'll say hatred of Jews. Do you condemn the Iranian president for hating Jews? For inciting hatred against Jews? For denying the Holocaust? For calling for a 'real' Middle Eastern holocaust? It's just depressingly Clan I've never heard you once condemn this stuff. You just argue over the word.

Over twenty years on a Bob Dylan (http://www.bobdylan.com/songs/bully.html) song still sums it up in so many ways I feel...

That's all well and good dis, but it's the manner in which the Israeli State was created, the forceful displacing of the people who lived there and their continual treatment of these people is what annoys us the most.

The KKK doesn't really exist any more. It's got a few thousand members at most, many aren't active and apart from the odd march they're just a few loons confined mainly to the internet it seems.

They do... it's just hte mainstream acceptanble public face is called the NRA.

And Renzo... nice avatar!

Honestly. Iran... is no threat. Rembmer how we were told Iraq was a threat and it turned out to be as threatening as a turd sandwich?

Not only is it ridiculous to compare the NRA to the KKK it also really insults the many people who struggled in the civil rights movement against the actual KKK during its heights. They weren't fighting an organisation that was pro-guns or right wing, they faced death and were killed in that fight.

It doesn't do any good to be so dismissive of the real historical facts about some organisations, and whilst the NRA may certainly contain some members who are racist, I'm hard pressed to remember them carrying out lynching and outright murder - and I'm sure the non-white members of the NRA would feel both insulted and horrified by the implications that they are racists and members of the Klu Klux Klan.

It was a joke reference from the a TV show I can't remember. I should probably state this sortof thing in my post infuture to calrify.

And as for sliding down the building... stop watching certain Kung Fu movies. Although, that was an awesome film.

Back on Issue though... I feel Israel should give back lal the terroritory it occupied after it's creation, and is still illegally occupying. I think this would go a long way to help peace in the Mid-East. Whislt it wouldn't satisfy all the people (Including the Iranian Govt.), it would probably help a great deal in Legitimizing anything the Israelis say. Even so, they'd probably satill make mad claims and bomb civilians... it's about time they got a decent Govt.
