Ever notice that atheists have killed 1000 times more of their own people (Stalin, Mao) than religionists have killed anybody?

"If a day comes when the world of Islam is duly equipped with the arms Israel has in its possession, the strategy of colonialism would face a stalemate because application of an atomic bomb would not leave anything in Israel but the same thing would just produce damages in the Muslim world",

Colonialism? And who is the state of all colonialism? The US, and hence Iran is doing this appeal against the US too. That the cult of the marxico-muslim poor is colonising everyone democraticaly does not budge any, all people care about is that no one will ever get rich by settling a piece of land.

Why can't we all just get along? Ever notice that most wars envolve religion?

Really? How about WWI, WWII, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, the Spanish-American War, the Civil War, the Mexican War of 1848, the War of 1812, the Revolutionary War, the French-American War, the Russo-Japanese War, Napeoleon's Campaigns, the Prusso-French War...your statement might have been relevant 300 years ago, but that is no longer the case...

What is the point?

Their goal is to destroy the nation of Israel before the Messiah can come to set up his kingdom. They may not realize it, but their employer is well aware of it.

Well, that's one way to make room for the Third Temple.

Ummmm. I think that was supposed to be a joke. Like...tongue in cheek.

Think about it... "I thank God every day"
Atheists assert that there IS NO god.

Interesting... that article leaves out what one might consider a very important remark that Rafsanjani made after the comments that were reported in the article already posted.

Rafsanjani followed up the comments about a nuclear conflict with:

But "we do not want the world to fall victim to insecurity, and we do not want the confrontation ... to turn into World War Three. That is the worst that could happen."

Gives the story an entirely different feel doesn't it?

I hate to burst your buble, but the muslim religion is not a religion. It's not because they mention God and have superstitions of all kinds they are a religion. Muslims are a secular ideology that resorts to armed force and Jihad to spread itself.

Christians on the other hand rely on free choice, so do Jews and so do Hindus. At the bottom those do not use material means but intellectual inquiry and emancipated spirit to make their choices - a choice made without the natural levers like hunger or thirst or anger. Proof is that Christians repent about the crusades, Jews repent and make concessions to the Palestinians, Hindus repent and preach peace at every corner even if it destroys them as they condemn the past acts of their zealots.

Nazies never repented. Communists still promote the cult of the poor and turning the world into a sewage for sake of authority of the poor. Muslims do the same and never have repented in their texts about their evil.

Compare that to the Nazies: white skin

Compare that to the communists: cult of the poor and the revolution of the proletaria

Compare that to muslims: violent Jihad.

Get a grip.

Israel is the world's only true super power because they are not afraid to use nuclear weapons in retaliation

Ya, that's a good way to start WWIII, we really don't know who has nuclear capability in that region or who is on their side with it, I for one never want to see that happen.

This is a good reason Israel needs to [if they already havent] deploy a Nuclear Submarine Force. These idiots [Arabs] only grasp reality when they are getting their jaws rewired.

A Nuclear submarine force would squash all of this gibberish.

btw: Arent Iranians Persian and not Arab? Is this "Nuclear attack" story true?

You can't blame armed force for America's one million or so Moslims. This statement is irresponsible.

I thank God every day that I'm an atheist.

That's got to be one of the most hilarious oxymorons I've ever seen! It's also a terribly sad statement. For your own personal good, you need to closely re-evaluate one of your core life-premises.

"Gives the story an entirely different feel doesn't it?"

No. The guy calls on Muslim states to obliterate Israel with nuclear weapons, then says he doesn't want the world to fall into insecurity.

The entire quote was:

"We are not willing to see security in the world is harmed", he said, warning that a war "of the pious and martyrdom seeking forces against peaks of colonialism will be highly dangerous and might fan flames of World War III."

The guy is a dangerous wacko, and his statement could be a signal of some sort. I guess this is his way of reassuring the world that the rest of the world will be safe from his insanity; it's just Israel that he wants wiped off the face of the planet.

It's not irresponsible, massive immigration has been known to be a muslim mean. When they get in greater numbers, they invariably turn the place into hell. Look at Lebannon, look at the texts and mein kampf they read.

If the end is evil, any mean is evil. Democracy can be used for and against a nation, turning it into a stellar achievement or into a vast sewage. What did you think Lenin did? How do you think Hitler came to power? How do you think Mao came to power? And clearly their end was spelled into their texts along the lines of destroying the non-believer

Wake up.
