You said Iran has 9% of the worlds oil, why do they need nuclear energy....that's really dumb to say.

Hey Israel is a state yes? They have nukes yes? Ok let's let Iran have nukes too? What's wrong with this picture?

You think Israel is better than Iran, should be above Iran? Are Jews better and above Iranians? Is that it Juddah? Your overwhelming support for the State of Israel is blinding you from making intelligent statements about the issues at hand.

That's ok though, you can go on with your bad self. Just remember, Jews are better than no one, and no one is better than Jews. What Jews can have, everyone can have and what anyone can have Jews can have.

Obviously you don't agree with this philosophy, you must hold Jews to a higher standard and expect them to be the Chosen Children of God and Rule The World, or at least Iran for the moment by taking away their nations right to nuclear technology.

I do not think Jews are better than Iranians - I'll let you in on a little secret - Iranians have scored the highest on scholastic tests in high schools out of the entire world. Let me let you in on another secret - I am a Jew of Uzbeki/Iranian heritage. I've had Iranian Jewish and non-Jewish friends, I work with Arab/Israelis I even have a relative who converted to Islam and we still meet every few months. I believe Jews are better than no-one. But nuclear weapons is not a playstation 2. Its not a 17"TFT monitor, but a devastatingweapon whose primary target will be Israel.

Nuclear weapons are weapons of deterence - Israel badly needed that deterence to solidify its place in a sea of Arabs who would stop at nothing to demolish the single Jewish state this world has to offer. Jews are special in my view only because they are an endangered species - 15 million in a world of over 6 billion is nothing - am 5 million of them are in Israel is even less.

Nuclear weapons cannot be allowed to proliferate - A nuclear crisis was averted it India and Pakistan not too long ago - Both sides were sufficiently intelligent to back down. Israel has nuclear weapons for over 30 years and never used it. It is a doomsday weapon whose only use is as a deterrent. I am not sure that Iran with its extremism can be trusted with that kind of weapon - A philosophy of every thing is OK in the name of Allah is frightening. The only countries that seem to understand that is the US and its allies.

Arabs hate Jews for Zionist Policies...of these policies there are many that Arabs hate. Blind hatred of Jews? The only blind anything here is your blind Love of Jews... Be critical...analyze things from both perspectives. Then make a decision.

How did you come to the decision I blindly love Jews? Just because I am a Zionist - Zionism is the concept of a Jewish right for a homeland in Israel - Our historic land.

Does that mean I hate Arabs - no.

I understand Arabs are peeved at us for what they claim is land-theft. I claim that hatred came long before Israel was created. In 1929 over 60 Jews where lynched to death in Hebron (A city that had Jewish inhabitants since Ancient times). Arabs lynched them out of religious hatred after their Imam in the city fave a firery sermon about Jewish conspiracy to deface the temple mount (or something of the sort). In response the British removed all Jews from Hebron to Jerusalem. Transferring Jews was always OK - Through-out the centuries. That was almost 20 years BEFORE Israel.
In Mashhad, Iran, where there was once a huge Jewish community, Muslim wiped out the Jewish communities by either murdering them or forcing them to convert to Islam - My ancestors at the time left Mashhad for Bukhara in what is now Uzbekistan.

So you say I love Jews and hate Arabs, I say no - They hate us because we are Jewish.
