ElBaradei says nuclear Israel number one threat to Mideast: report_English_Xinhua

El Baradei may well be correct in stating that Israel has Nuclear weapons.

What he failed to mention is that Israel has since it's inception not waged an offensive war against any other Nation.

Nor indeed has it threatened any other Nation with it's supposed Nuclear weapons.

Israel has most certainly never threatened to wipe another Nation from the face of the map.

Clearly, El Baradei is a terrorist supporter. It's time for him to be removed from his position.

He has a few months until he's swapped with the new elected head of UN nuclear agency, some Japanese dude.

Odd. You were unaware of this in addition to your lack of knowledge about the paramilitary scandals of Alvaro Uribe. You need to brush up on your international studies, my man.

Peres Warns Iran for Threatening Israel | Article from AP Online | HighBeam Research

Israeli Vice Premier Shimon Peres warned Iran that it could be threatened with destruction if it continues to vow to destroy Israel.

"Be careful with your threats," Peres told Channel 1 TV on Monday. "Those who threaten to destroy are in danger of being destroyed."...Peres, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, drew unusually stiff criticism from an analyst on Israel's state television, Yoav Limor, for talking of destroying another country.

"There is a broad consensus that it would have been better if Peres had not said this, especially now," Limor said. "I'm quite sure Israel does not want to find itself in the same insane asylum as (Iranian President Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad."

What's most important to note, of course, is that there's no translation dispute about the now-Israeli president's comments. There's no allegation that his threat that another country could be "wiped off the map" was misinterpreted or that he was actually referring only to a desire to see a political regime lose power, as was the case with Ahmadinejad. Rather, there was a clear and blatant threat regarding the physical destruction of a country, which would presumably entail the infliction of mass casualties on its citizenries and infrastructure. If this position gains any serious influence, the analysis of this regime being the greatest threat to the Middle East was well-considered indeed, especially in light of its control of an undeclared and unregulated nuclear arsenal developed under a previous regime under conditions of deliberate concealment from international inspectors.
 
So basicaly what Vice Premier Shimon Peres said was that if you attack us you will be wiped out. Tell me how that is wrong again. Should Isreal not be able to defend themselves or what?

The majority (if disputed) view holds that Ahmadinejad was speaking of the eventual downfall of a political regime rather than the physical destruction of a country through military force. Conversely, there is no dispute about the fact that Peres was speaking of the military destruction of Iran itself. His comments were consequently regarded as provocative and inappropriate by persons such as the aforementioned Israeli analyst, while sentiments about Ahmadinejad's comments have been mixed and dependent on the translation of his statement, though the mass media still reports that he claimed that Israel itself should be "wiped off the map" without question, despite the fact that no such idiom exists in Farsi.
 
ElB is exactly right. And every Iranian Mullah, Shiite Cleric, Sunni terrorist organization, and Pakistani Premier.....need to understand this as well. Your actions...Gentlemen...your jihads and your threats...need to realize, nukes are the biggest threat. And yer gonna have some inserted in orifices you don't want blocked and then ignited, they'll make a whole new Jewish holiday at your expense. They'll give it some fancy name and party for weeks on your tombstones.

What say we concentrate on a Palestinian State and genuine peace in the region. Let's agree Israel is gonna be there every morning..and move on.

Otherwise.....:july_4th:

I never really liked that guy or trusted him. How many missiles has NK sent Israel, and how many to Iran? Who has supported Hezbollah and Hamas?

We do not need a terrorist in the UN. El Baradi is a disgrace.

He was responding to Iran's rhetoric... and he has every right to do so. Iran's government is run by islamic terrorists.

I'm not aware of any acts of terrorism that the present Iranian administration has engaged in, certainly not on the basis of being "Islamic." Conversely, I'm aware that Israel has previously been governed by terrorist figures such as Menachem Begin and Yitzhak Shamir.
 
I for one think we need to give 2 or 3 times MORE taxpayer money to the UN.. they are such a blessing!!.. 'er I mean JOKE!

Then you failed to do you research.

1.) Iran finances and arms Hezballah.... a terrorist group.
2.) Aminajinawack was idenified by no less than six of the 1979-80 Iran hostage crisis as one of their captors.

These two items link Iran's government to terrorist activity.

From the link, Peres was clearly replying to what he viewed to be a threat to his country by Iran's President. Whether or not this was misinterpreted, is not important. His remarks were not threatening unprovoked military action against Iran. Most reasonable people could clearly conclude this from the links you posted.

Hezbollah is a direct proxy of the Iranian government, they were born in funded, trained, and armed by, and take their marching orders from Tehran, Iran likewise have been supplying the Taliban in Afghanistan and the Sadr Army in Iraq with weaponry. That is state sponsorship of terrorism.

Lol these are direct responses to Iranian threats. That's like saying that if I say that I will defend myself if you attack me that I am threatening you.

Saying that the Zionist regime should we erased from the pages of time is the exact same thing as saying that Israel should be wiped off the map. :roll:

You're referring to a misquote of Ahmedinejad mentioning that Israel shall not be recognized even from a cartographic POV as a territory in the middle east.

Having the nuclear capabilities to destroy nations around it who do not have sufficient deterrence systems is a direct threat to them. It is a deterrent that they do not invade Israel, however.

Israel wages a daily war on palestine and its civilians btw.

You failed to do you research: Hezbollah has not committed an act of terror in decades.

You dont watch aljazeera do you. They control the utilities, stop all imports and exports so there can be no economy, constrict the highways and divide the land with their settlements. Thats just for starters.


"Yeah, they don't rain rockets on northern Israel or anything."
I heard they do that because theyre evil little towelheads with bad genes who need to have a colony of europeans and american jews take their land to show them a lesson about being born there.

Have a nice day!

You can accuse me of some kind of racism all you want, but the fact is, they rain rockets on Israel.
