Russia to expand cooperation with Iran

The UN hates Israel. I thought everyone knew.
Iran is not being very warm and cuddly right now.

The only way to stop Iran without war is to send arms to the Arab separatists who live in their oil rich western border lands. Without oil, they are nothing.
To heck with Iran...when are they gonna expel the U.S.?
Why we (or Israel) haven't completely wiped out Iran's military and nuclear capabilities is totally beyond me.
It's times like this when I wish we could clone Ronald Reagan and put him back in the White House. Do you think Iran would be any more than a pile of sand if he was in power?
Well, that's not very politically correct of Iran's president, saying stuff like that, is it now?
UN's ANSWER: (((((Crickets Chirping)))))
Actually Reagan backed down in Lebanon and we really should have had a war with Iran because of their violation of diplomatic status of our embassy workers - plainly an act of war. As much as I like and respect Ronnie, he screwed the pooch on those two counts.
Good. When can they get started?
Well maybe, Reagan hit Ghadaffi over Lockerbie, but the Marine barracks bombing went unanswered. Even RR was fettered by Geopolitical hooey!

I think rather than engage in useless calling for expulsion of Iran from United Nations (the organization full of Islamic Terrorist Sponsors or their fans anyway), Israel should simply conduct an air raid on all suspected Iranian Nuclear facilities as a justified act of self-defence.
The open call by president of one country to wipe out of existence another country without any threats and provocations from that other country is pretty much an act of war as far as I'm concerned. This is not a call by some waco IslamoNazi, or Wahhabi Mullah during Friday Prayers. This is not a speech by some lunatic Jew hater. It's a call by the head of the state with the large army behind him and possibly the capabilities to produce and deliver nuclear weapons. So air raid will be more than justified--it will be an act of self-defence.
The U.N. to Israel: "We'll study this unreasonable request of yours just as soon as we vote on this here resolution equating Zionism with racism."
Reagan was playing a bigger game at the time. The Soviet Union was the foe to beat. Today Iran is one of the great threats, no doubt about it.
Well let's look at the facts. He pulled out of Lebanon, calling it a mistake and not our problem. Was furious at Begin for invading Lebanon. Sold the AWACS to Saudi Arabia, and had formed a working relationship with the major Islamic players in the Middle East.
I'd say that if he were in the White House it would be very unlikely that we'd be in Iraq right now, and equally likely that we never would have been attacked on 9/11.
In his next statement Peres said Iran's comment was a sign of progress in the road map. < /s>
Israel must destroy Iran's nuclear facilities if it wants to survive.
The question is: does Israel still want to survive?
