The IAEA, UN, and US HYPOCRISY...margeAug 7th, 2008 - 16:53:59

Funny that Iran is being condemned by all for staging its missile test but there was no condemnation or outcry of Israel for doing the same thing. Last month Israel staged a large military exercise that involved more than a 100 warplanes over distances they said they would need to cover to strike Iran. Both US and Israel reported Israel's action as a warning to Iran. Now, that Iran has responded to that warning in the most appropriate way, it is being condemning by all. If that's not hypocrisy and double standards, I don't know what is.

I say again. The IAEA, US, and UN are harassing and threatening Iran with sanctions over its legal right to enrich uranium out of fear that Iran is building nuclear bombs. So what if this is true? The US and many members of the UN have nuclear bombs and remain silence on credible information that Israel also has nuclear bombs. Iran needs nuclear bombs to protect its people and sovereignty from enemies like Israel, which has a history of land stealing, terrorism, killing palestinians for land, violating the border boundaries of Gaza, Syria, and Iraq and bombing their properties, and starting numerous wars with its arab neighbors. Israel is now threatening to bomb Iran's nuclear plants to ensure it remains the only country in the Middle East with nuclear bombs. By contrast, Iran has committed no aggression or crimes against its neighbors to justify the sanctions and harassment imposed upon it by the IAEA, UN, and US.

Iran should pull out of NPT and stop cooperating with the IAEA, UN, and US entirely. Iran should never give up its right to nuclear energy or nuclear weapons regardless of the consequences, unless other countries give up their rights to nuclear bombs. The hypocrisy and double standards of the IAEA, US, and UN is ridiculous and should not be tolerated by any country!!!!

Marge you are a fool,
These people and their backwards religion and brainwashed ideology with nuclear weapons is hypocricy at its finest.

The crazy Iranians have been let to get way too far already with their ambitions, if not acted on soon it will be at the worlds expense.
The UN is a paper tiger, blagh,blagh,blagh, shame job.

If we did'nt require the oil, they would've been anialated along time ago, China and Russia would't give a rats bum about them.

They strong-arm Syria, send terrorists into Afghanistan, and Lebanon.
