‘Iran to convene nuclear conference targeting Israel’
Christian United for Israel ^ | June 11, 2011

Iran will convene a nuclear disarmament conference that will focus on the international community’s “policy of overlooking Israel’s nuclear programs,” DPA reported on Saturday quoting Iranian official media. According to the report, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Mehdi Akhoundzadeh, who will lead the conference, said the conference will target “Israel’s policy of nuclear ambiguity” and what he said was Israel’s refusal to neither confirm or deny that it allegedly possesses nuclear weapons.

“The United States and its allies continue to put pressure on countries like Iran that have no nuclear weapons, while ignoring Tel Aviv’s looming nuclear threats to the Middle East,” Akhoundzadeh was quoted by DPA as telling PressTV.

The Iranian government has told the international community that instead of trying to block Iran's nuclear program development, it should shift its attention on Israel, whom it accuses of running nuclear activities covertly, DPA reported.

Meanwhile, Iran announced this week that it will shift its production of higher grade uranium to an underground bunker and triple its production capacity. The announcement received condemnation by the west, with the US calling it a "brazen" example of Tehran's defiance of international obligations.

I agree. Obama would attend.

I have a dreadful feeling about this issue. With Iran ready to produce nukes within a few months, Israel may confirm their possession of nuclear weapons - by using them in a retaliatory strike against Iran.

“The United States and its allies continue to put pressure on countries like Iran that have no nuclear weapons, while ignoring Tel Aviv’s looming nuclear threats to the Middle East."

It is in the United States best interests to protect our peace-loving ally, democratic Israel, and to restrain rogue, terrorist "countries like Iran" who have vowed to destroy the United States and Israel. "Countries like Iran" are a threat to the whole world. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out that there's no moral equivalency here.

Actually it makes a lot of sense from Iran's point of view--they can offer to denuclearize if Israel can be forced by the "international community" to do the same. Of course, Iran would be lying.

But nuclear disarmament has had a long sentimental history of blind, mindless support by the idiot left; and such an attack against Israel's means of deterrance would appeal greatly to many leftwingers and other haters. Once achieved of course, Israel would be toast.

IDK if this will even get off the ground but I would not be surprised to see it surface in the media soon, as a "win-win" way to resolve the Iranaian nuclear crisis and "advance the Middle East peace process." Little Tommy Friedman, for example, would be all breathless and flushed with excitement.

If Iran decides to launch nukes against Israel, wouldn’t they kill hundreds of thousands of Palestinians also?

I guess the Iranians really do not have the Palis best interests at heart. If anything the Palis should tell Iran to knock it off.

Iran, for its part, has never been ambiguous about what it will do with its nuclear weapons.

Maybe Israel just needs to send a couple of “confirmations” to Tehran about their capabilities just to eliminate any doubt.

US to Iran: "Aww, geeze, you guys. That's not very nice."

Yep... They act like a sugared up 3 year old yet want to be taken seriously.

Doom on em....

Will be surprised if they don’t try something above even their own brand of stupid in the next year against Israel.

This is straight out of Joel Rosenberg’s “Last Jihad” series... In his books the vote is brought ot the UN Security Council and the US abstains allowing the measure to pass. Does anyone believe Obama would absolutely 100% veto the measure?

What Imanutjob and the other tight turbans in Iran don't understand is Israel will not allow itself to be nuked and will retaliate with its formidable nuclear arsenal if threatened. Iran cannot win a nuclear exchange with Israel and will have its major cities and military installations annihilated.

Funny, I don’t seem to recall any threats by Israel
to melt Iran or other arab countries. No “we will
drive Iran into the sea.” no “We will turn Iran
into a slag heap!”.

Guess I must have missed all that.
