   For some reason this reader comment has not published:
   “ror1774 Feb 2, 2:47 am “I agree. Iran marches to their own tune. They just like to bully people and other countries.””

   My reply is: What about Israel’s bombing and killing that goes unheeded by the UN, US, media and seemingly the public? A clear bully of massive devestation.

   Iran, however, has done no more than some verbal sabre-rattling. It has never interfered with another country except when the US instigated the Iran-Iraq war.

   Ror, it seems you have your bullies confused!

     It is my understanding that Iran supports, sponsors, and supplies Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Muslim Brotherhood all stated enemies of Israel. Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Muslim Brotherhood have stated they want to see a Calafate(sp) with its capital being Jerusalem. In order to accomplish the Calafate Iran would need to obliterate Israel. Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Muslim Brotherhood are very active in the countries surround Israel and send woman and children with bombs strapped to them into Jewish gatherings to blow themselves up.
     There is a previous post on this blog about Daniel Shayesteh – Understanding Islam from a former Radical, Militant, Iranian fundamentalist Daniel Shayesteh was many things: Radical Muslim Active militant Iranian fundamentalist Death row inmate… … but today, Daniel is a born-again Christian!

       To ror.
       I can agree that Iran has an aggressive attitude and is supporting the enemies of Israel.

       However, if you look at the big picture you will be aware of two main issues:

       1 Iran has been struggling for years to maintain independence from the West, after having been seriously infiltrated by the US, who are still continuously interfering in their country in several ways. Whatever support Iran provides to countries and organizations in their defence is justified by the need for defence against Israel and the West. Yet they have caused little harm in real terms. The Muslim Brotherhood are indeed an enigma – can’t work out whose side they are on. Part of the time they are in league with the US, or the other way around.

       2. In contrast, Israel with US support, have a confirmed, demonstrated violence and aggression policy fully activated against Palestine and others. (Now bombing Syria, would you believe?) No rhetoric there!

       No matter what beliefs you or I may have, the evidence of the damage already being done “speaks” loudly against the injustice that Iran has to contend with. There is little value in the words of any of those leaders, but the actions speak for themselves. And the actions are what influence me.

   The whole war scenario is just a farce. Just another way to keep the price of commodities, like oil high. To keep passions enflamed and to rob the tax-payers. Of tax-dollars spent on a relatively useless commodity like uranium and the subsequent bombs. As in G. Orwell’s book 1984 they keep up a pretence of continual fighting, to justify the prison planet. Oceania, Eastasia and Euroasia the perpetrators of the lie. To enrich their leaders and keep the population subdued. Keeping the population scared that the others would win? Does that sound familiar?
