Germany: Iran threat to Israel is a threat to West


www.haaretz.com
Iran's denial of Israel's right to exist is unacceptable and Tehran must be prevented from obtaining a nuclear weapon, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said in a speech before the U.S. Congress on Tuesday.

"Whoever threatens Israel also threatens us," she told Congress in an address to mark the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, which took place on November 9, 1989.

Good Point but are the willing to send in there Armies to assisit the US/G.B in an attack on Iran, or will they oppose us like what happened in Iraq. My money is on the latter, a lot of people talk and bolster themselves. Notice she said this in the US and not Germany.

just another propaganda speech...
not to mention hypocritical

you don't see Iranians mass murder their minorities
like Israel is butchering Palestinians

how many nuclear bombs Iran have?
and how many Israel?

Iran is a threat to the world?

That's an ultimate
hypocritical statement
of an ignorant...

Palestinians are not Israeli minorities. They are not Israeli citizens.Or do you wish for Israel to annex the territories completely? Doubt that. And there is active armed conflict between Israel and Palestinians since 1920s. Both sides butcher each other, Israel caused more deaths,true.
But if you want to check how minorities are treated in Israel and Iran -do not make me laugh.
Bahai are doing great in Iran,for example. Just great. Other minorities are also pressed. Less,sure. But Israeli Arabs have greater conditions. Not ideal ,true. But you cannot even compare it.

I agree that the people of Iran aren't the enemy. It's the Iranian government. So how about this statement:

The Mullahs of Iran are a threat to the world.

Oh good lord, I can see history repeating itself again, You might think Germany hass the power in the EU, they certainly do not. There will not be a united EU, if David Cameron has his way, he is staunchly against it, and the invention of the post of the EU President.

Even before this all happens there is going to be hostility between a futre Conservative Government and the EU as a whole.

Who have the Mullahs of Iran waged war on in recent times compared to our two countries?

Sorry to say Laura that the EU is a done deal now,we have been cheated out on a vote on it by Labour and now its up and running today there realy isnt anything we can do about it

David has to get friends in Europe,that means not being too isolated-

One good thing is it looks like Tony Blair wont be the EU president!

Off topic but I can believe that revolting man was using his Middle East Peace Envoy job position to cosy up to govemenbts over their and try and get Tesco in the scene over there!All he ever thinks about is his wallet,shame his name will be remembered in history as he doesnt deserve any attention

you can also say that the American Congress is a threat to the world and you would be much closer to the truth

Maybe that special vaccine they gave her still had all the neuro-toxins in it after all?


This second line is dedicated to all the fine government officials who received special vaccinations that the public was not privy to.

And where did you see sniper shooting on children in Israel (i assume that you meant Gaza - and it is not Israel but this does not matter.)? In the best case you read about it on some anti-Israeli site without any sources. So there is no need for this emotional slander.

Which "world" do irans leaders pose a threat to? one tiny little nation is scared, based on an irrational premise: iran will nuke muslim holy land. The "leaders", so called, of the US / UK have exported more death, disease and suffering.. who is more of a threat to the average peace loving person?

118 nations back irans nuclear program, these countries are not urinating themselves scared like a crying child not getting its way.. a google search of "118 nations + iran" = about 7,880,000 link references.

These non aligned nations understand the simple reality that iran wouldn't nuke the ancient cherished muslim holy stuff in israel, while vaporizing their palestinian brothers & sisters.

Would you blow up your stolen car if you wanted it back? or kill your friends you've been trying to liberate?.. destroying the village to save it is a US strategy.

How about this?

The tiny hole buried under Asma Mughayar's thick black hair, just above her right ear, is an illusion, according to the Israeli army. So is her family's insistence that Asma, 16, and her younger brother Ahmed, were both shot through the head by an Israeli soldier as they fed their pigeons and collected the laundry from the roof of their home in Rafah refugee camp. But their corpses tell a different story, as do the bodies of other children brought to Rafah's hospital and makeshift mortuaries even before yesterday's carnage, in which Israeli tanks and helicopters fired on a peaceful protest by Palestinians in the camp, killing 10 demonstrators, according to Palestinian paramedics.

Still not a factual statement, since the Mullahs and Ayatollahs of Iran have never initiated a war against anyone. Unless you want to count their ill-advised counter-invasion of Iraq in the 80's, Even that was justifiable as it was pretty clear that Iraq wasn't going to stop attacking Iran after getting pushed out of Iran's borders.

One could argue that they're a threat to their fellow Iranians, I suppose.

But the world? Or even one country or another in the world? Ludicrous. Of course, I can't you to exactly be ingormed about iran beyond what Fox News or MEMRI might tell you.
