Did I miss something? Who is advocating attacking Iran over their leader's comments? No one that I know of. I was only pointing out how his statement is very similar to Hitler's stance on the Jews, not as different as you claimed. The BIG difference is that Hitler acted on his plans for the Jews and as far as I know, Iran has not. Also, as far as I know, the U.S. is in partnership with other countries to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weaponry capabilities. Diplomacy is still in the works. Only the media ever mentions any attack (and speculators online).




>>I really don't think that his statement: "As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map," said Ahmadinejad, referring to Iran's revolutionary leader Ayat Allah Khomeini" is the equivalent of stating that Iran does not recognize Israel as a state. No other country states a country should be wiped off the face of the earth when it does not recognize its government or validity.

>Now do you attack country over someone's unapropriate (past) statements ?

>On the other side of the table, you have all bunch off insulting/arrogant/warmongering/threatening voices doing orchestrated campaign and infact preparing ground for war.

>Can't they all (US/Iran/Israel) just come down, sit and start actually talking ? Where does all this lead ?
