No, Israel is already the world's scapegoat for problems it has had little part in creating.\n\nWhat is necessary is a UN resolution requiring the intervention of an International police force to go in and dismantle any and all nuclear programs in Iran.  Iran should be informed that any attempt by Iranians or anyone else to interfere will be responded to militarily to the extent that is necessary.  That would leave the going to war to be their decision.  Hopefully,  they would back down.\n\nIran, an Islamic dictatorship by definition unstable and unreliable, has no right to nuclear power nor to the possession of nuclear fuel. Those who discovered and developed it would never have wished it extended to Iran.\n\nThe problem here is that the UN generally produces resolutions that are irresponsible, unjust, and politically motivated.  They tend to ignore the reality of every international situation.  It simply is an organization that is counterproductive to world peace. Of course fear of annihilation might wake up even the dimmest and most self-interested minds on the face of the earth, and many of them are apparently found in the UN.\n\nThe U.S. is only over its limit because it cannot find the political will to do what is necessary while that is still possible.\n\nThe same situation existed in the six years previous to WWII.\n\nThen the free world waited too long to react to the undeniable intentions of Hitler. As a result we counted the dead not in hundreds but in the tens of millions!  Will it wait too long again?

I would not call it a threat to its more like a promise.\nMaybe if Iran was to stop shouting its mouth of about the west they might get a little more respect.and Iran Attack Israel not if your soul depended on it.

Existence of nuclear weapons is threat to humanity.Efforts should be made for a nuclear free zone in Middle East including Iran and Israel. Americans must have faith in their Government which is committed for their protection. A solution to the problem will be found.

So far only limited information is available, only from what was release to the press by the Iranian.\n\nJuLy 7, 2003, BBC news "Iran missile test alarms Israel" http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3051418.stm\n\nIran Missile Milestones - 1985-2000; http://www.wisconsinproject.org/countries/iran/miss-miles.htm\n\nAnalysis: Iran's Missile Capabilities; http://www.spacedaily.com/news/missiles-04zzl.html\n\nApril 08, 2006 Iran missile threat could harm US; http://www.clarionledger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060408/OPINION02/604080351/1009/OPINION\n\nCNN, April 05,  Iran says another 'top secret' missile tested; http://edition.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/04/05/iran.missile.ap/\n\nUpdate 2: Iran Test-Fires 'Top Secret' Missile ; http://www.forbes.com/business/businesstech/feeds/ap/2006/04/05/ap2649634.html\n\nAt this point, we may say that its nothing, but dont forget the fact that Iran fired a Silkworm missile (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silkworm_missile) in 1988 that hit US Tanker (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Earnest_Will)\n\nEven after that, Iran continue to develop and improve its missile technology, courtesy of teh Chinese.\n\nLast week missile test by the Iranian shows that the missile can deliver multi payload, it is also a well known fact that Iran despise the Jews.\n\nHow soon and how fast can Iran develop a cruise missile? its only a matter of time.

"It takes two to tango"... so, both really, but as for any one faction, verses any other... the US, is definately the most dangerous... where Israel comes in, is provocation, to put it simply, Israel (vs Iran), or Iran (vs the US directly) is the spark, and the US is the proverbial "powderkeg". Iran is, however, a HUGE threat to the world economy (in particular, the fragile US economy), but to be such a threat, it needs a cause to "unite" its people, that is where we (the US under republican or democrat leadership), and Israel (under virtualy any leadership), come in to play... by itself, without direct combat Iran is possably the most dangerous power on this earth (due to its economic signifigance)... but as far as direcly killing/destroying the world, and creating unecisary death, and combat, the US takes the "blue ribbon"... but never fear, if the partisan bickering continues, and socialist government systems continue to rise at there current rate (here in the US), the democrats and republicans that currently ocupy this country will colapse its economy, rendering the US relatively powerless, and making way for the evil empire of China to rise... of coarse when this happens (and it will, if we do not signifigantly change our course in the next 15-25 years, the economy will undergo another "crash", like in the nineteen thirties), China will be the biggest military threat...\n\nDoesn't make you very optomistic about the future of our world does it? I just hope this new "crash" doesn't happen within my lifetime... Even with the idiodic (not patriotic) red white and stupid general public at the relm, eventualy (hopefuly soon), we will get an inteligent president, who will guide us away from this path of self-destruction (after all, if you have enough monkeys typing on enough typewriters, for a long enough time, they may eventualy type something intelegent, right?)...

Hmmm......I remember a couple years ago, bush said something like this (direct quote):\n\n"knowing these realities, America must not ignore the threat gathering against us. Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof -- the smoking gun that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud."\n\nYeah, I remember that, I was sitting in 105:H International Studies at Washington University when he said that, it was a reference to "Iraq's" "Nuclear technology" that we all know now that he never even had.....whooopsy, guess we can't use that phrase again....\n\nThey've been threatening Israel for the last 30 years, in fact you act as if Israel is so vulnerable, while as a matter of fact they are the ones that have ballistic missiles and atomic capablities, you act as if Iran is the bully===right.....hmmmm yeah did you get the memo? \n\n------------\n\nI don't like your attitude when it comes to describing their leaders either, I have my own feelings towards most Islamic extremists as I do for Christian extremists (Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson), but I don't go as far to label them and make a racial slur...you need to have some decency, and I know your probably quite young, however better to learn now than never right?

There are some extremely smart people in Iran, both male and female.  Not the political leaders who are very primitive.  All the smart people are virtual prisoners of the theocratic state system to a greater or lesser degree.\n\nThey certainly can, and may already have atomic bombs.\n\nWhen you combine that with the statements and intentions of the political leadeership it is quite scary.\n\nEven more scary if they decide to foster terrorist objectives anywhere in the world.\n\nObviously this will backfire greatly on them over time, but it is possible something tragic could happen for others, even Russia, Israel, or any other place, like Saudi Arabia.\n\nHaving atomic weapons calls for having your brains under control and accepting international standards of sane and wise policies.\n\nThe Iranians are the only ones who can solve this dilemma, it must involve actual and overt policy and believable statements.\n\nAnything else is a doom scenario, with the worst doom on the Iranians themselves.\n\nSo far, it appears they do not understand this.  They are starting to feel very powerful and influential like Hitler, pre-World War II.  Will they make similar decisions?

I think many people in Iran may WANT peace, but I don't trust their leaders.  Ahmedinejad speaks with a voice of war and hatred.  When you consider this AND the fact that they appear to be building nuclear weapons, I'd say that Iran is one of the most dangerous countries in the world today.  Most people in most countries (including the U.S.) WANT peace, but the governments rarely provide peace.  The government of Iran is not peace-loving.

It is dangerous for numerous reasons:\n\n1.  The Iranian President is a madman, who threatens to destroy Israel and Western civilizations because he feels they are attacking Islam.\n\n2.  If he acquires nuclear weapons, the US has roughly 150,000 troops in the region.  They would be sitting ducks...\n\n3.  If Iran attacks Israel, the US will have to get involved militarily.\n\n4.  The Iranian President came to power by fixing the election in his favor.  One who achieves power this way cannot be trusted.\n\nDid I forget anything?

The president of Iran is a threat to the world, did you hear his speach today, he is hell bent on destoying Israel. How ever I think that Israel can take care of themselves and ouhgt to be able to. Let Israel go get him.

There's lots of saber rattling right now, but I think the people in power would be stupid to try and invade Iran - the Islamic view of the Western nations isn't so great as it is (especially now), and any attack against Iran would really be adding fuel to the fire.

Israel is a lot less likely to be firing off nuclear weapons at their enemy-of-the-week than Iran is.  But who has the right to develope them and who doesn't - I don't know.   The US and the UN want to be the Police of the World, and that seems to cause more problems than it solves.
