What would Obama do if Iran launched a nuclear attack on Israel?
Q. Considering the President of Iran denies the Holocaust ever occurred and wants to wipe Israel off the face of the map. Question: Obviously you're not Jewish. And you seem very hateful for being a Democrat. I guess you would love for Israel to drop off the face of the earth. Amazing that you consider yourself a Democrat.

A. Obama has indicated that he will not do a thing, but after Iran has nuked Israel he may attack Iran. President Obama's about face regarding the relationship between the U.S. and Israel is disturbing, to say the least. Mr. Obama has made a total reversal of American policy and now favors the despotic Muslim regimes over the Israeli democracy. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu had a meeting recently with President Obama. The following threats are what Mr. Netanyahu heard from Mr. Obama: 1.Withdrawal of U.S. support at the UN. 2.Preventing Israel from using their GPS, which is needed to guide Israeli missiles, aircraft and tanks. 3.Cancellation of 3 billion dollars in annual grants. 4.Barring Israel from using American ammunition… [cont.]

Does Iran and others have the right to defend themselves?
Q. IF Isreal has the right to attack another country for its own security does that mean Iran can attack Isreal for its own security? Since (prior to the president claiming Isreal should be wiped off the map) ISreal hinted at having a nuclear detterant at iran, and claiming Iran is a threat. Since Isreal and USA attacked Iraq for its "Security" Does that mean Iran has a right to attack Isreal if Isreal is a threat to Iranian security? ...also if Isreal attacks Iran first does Iran have the right to retaliate?

What will the price of gas be if Iran has nuclear weapons?
Q. Everyone is worried about going to war with Iran at the moment. But a nuclear Iran with the power to deliver the weapon, what will happen to the price of oil when Iran fires the first nuclear bomb at Israel and tries to wipe it off the map, and Israel responds with the same??? What will the price of gas be then? Iran is like a suicide bomber that is willing to die to destroy their enemy.

Can Iran cause a worldwide economic depression by disrupting oil shipments in the Gulf?
Q. If we attack Iran, they can use low level technology to disrupt oil shipments through the Gulf. They have done it before. They have land and ship launched anti ship missiles. They have thousands of sea mines and many ways to distribute them, both low level and high level techniques. From inflatable rubber boats, to mine laying ships and planes. Including commercial oil tankers. The Gulf is narrow and limits our military capabilities. Do you believe they can cause enormous economic problems in Europe, Asia and America? And can they caiuse a world wide depression?

But we disbanded the army and the governmental infrastructure, and are still trying to rebuild it from scratch. The people of Iran would love to see their government overthrown, so they can go back to being the westernized country the were prior to Jimmy Carter helping overthrow the Shah back in 1978, leading to what we have now.

A. It is not hypocritical in the sense that for muslims everything that does not conform to Islam is subject to criticism. The Quran extensively prescribes hatred and violence toward Jews and Christians, and Israel is their primary target. President Ahmadinejad and the iranian people uphold the Quran to the word openly and with pride.

Neither would engage in direst combat against the US, for Iran and risk it escalating into a nuclear war. Venezuela, might try and shut off the flow of oil to the US, but they would be cutting their own throat in doing so. Most people don't realize, that trade between Venezuela and the US has increased 40% the last 6 years. So we actually have better trade relations now, than ever before.

A. This is one of the few times that I will warn someone away from doing their own research. It's likely that you'll ruffle feathers by trying to get those records from a western country. If you have a family member still living in that country, you can ask for their help. If not, my humblest suggestion is that you find an Iranian student organization at a large university and see if one would help you by explaining the system, the record-keeping, and assist you with getting the records. You will not do well sending a letter in English into Iran. You'll need correspondence to be in Farsi and it needs to come from an Islamic country.

Q. My Grandpa is from Iran. How would I go about doing research for ancestors in Iran? I am unaware of how the name system works in Iran. Is it more difficult than doing it on Europeans? How does their vital record system work? How far back did they keep records? How far, if you have done it, have you gone back?

A. This is one of the few times that I will warn someone away from doing their own research. It's likely that you'll ruffle feathers by trying to get those records from a western country. If you have a family member still living in that country, you can ask for their help. If not, my humblest suggestion is that you find an Iranian student organization at a large university and see if one would help you by explaining the system, the record-keeping, and assist you with getting the records. You will not do well sending a letter in English into Iran. You'll need correspondence to be in Farsi and it needs to come from an Islamic country.

Why are we planning a bombing run on Iran?
Q. Anybody have a clue why we are planning a bombing run on Iran? As far as I know we have properly opened up communication. So, instead of talking we are going to throw bombs at them. Wouldn't it be cheaper to offer some financial incentives instead of spending 80 million a bomb that will primarly kill people who are only following orders? Surely there has to be some way for us to solve this without another war. If we end up engaging Iran you can almost bet that they will have to reinstitute the draft, because we are spread way to thin, both from a financial perspective and a military perspective. What do you think?

A. Hello...because it's Iran! Iran is the number one threat to world peace at this moment. They fund any and every extremist group willing to cause havoc. If you are so hellbent on opening lines of communication with this terrorist nation, try your luck and report back to us. Sometimes only physical force will foster peace. Iran has blatantly disregarded all attempts at cooperation and has challenged the United States in the media. You sound like a bleeding heart liberal.

What are the reasons for the cultural differences between Saudi and Iran?
Q. Both countries are run by Islamist governments and Islamic laws, but Iran is very secular, its young people are not religious and are very Westernized, but Saudi is still a religious society. What explains this difference?
Asked by Jane - Wed Feb 6 03:02:16 2008 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Saudi Arabia practices a very strict form of Islam called Wahhabism, Iran practices Shia Islam which has a much less strict doctrine. Also, Saudi Arabia has always been run by an Islamic government, while Iran has only recently (After the revolution) became an Islamic state, before that it was a completely secular country run by a US puppet (The Shah) so you can see why they would still have that western and secular influence. Also remember that Iran is a Persian country, while Saudi Arabia is an Arab country. Prophet Muhammad is originally from Mecca, so you could see why the people there would take it upon themselves to be the ''strictest Muslims'', even though, in my opinion, neither the government nor the religious institutions in… [cont.]

Q. Israel could demolish all Palestinian establishments in a week. If it cant beat Iran by itself, the United States will make sure it gets done. And trust me, we wont be nice.

A. Iran was not involved in the six-days war. Back then the shah of Iran was an ally of Israel. After all, Iran is not an Arab country, Arabs don't know how to fight. The Iran-Iraq war was fought in a desperate moment in the history of Iran. And Iraq was backed by US, received weapons form USSR and weapons from european countries( They used german-french chemical weapons on Iranian soldiers in Iran ).

Powerful regime insiders have lost confidence in the Supreme Leader's ability to preserve what they had all built together. This domestic fault line has the potential to be devastating in its long term impact.
