  2. Nothing still on the Wikileaks Israel claim about the inability to attack Iran's nuclear complex made in 2005? Sometimes news items are made more interesting by the fact of their omission from coverage.

  8. Attacking the puppet Saudi embassy is not a very astute move. Iran has a lot of geo-strategic options vis a vis a very vulnerable Saudi Arabia which has recently recruited two Pakistani divsions of brainwashed madrassa Wahabbis from the Punjab to prop-up the corrupt house of Saud which is facing massive internal problems. Iran should be working with Saudi dissidents and not let this unnecessarily turn into a "Sunni-Shia" issue. That is exactly what the tottering Persian Gulf petro-pimpdoms and their US/Zionist masters want.

    US is doing its best to turn the Persian Gulf and Saudi freedom movements into a sectarian issue. The Arab street is quite aware of this insidious dimension.

    Iran needs to revamp its Arabic/Urdu language media and TV services and perhaps host the Arab dissidents to expose US/Zionist policies directly to the disenfranchised Arab masses. The appeal of Iranian revolution remains very strong in the wider Muslim world. The corrupt Arab regimes are so distrustful of their own militaries and US supplied tools of repression that they are depending on mercenaries to hang on to power against the rising tide.

    also Asia Times has an excellent analysis by ex-Indian ambassador:

    Pakistan skating
    on thin Bahraini ice
    The Pakistani aspiration to be a provider of security for the Saudi-backed Bahrain ruler to counter the challenge of Shi’ite empowerment holds inherent risks. But Islamabad is pushing the envelope, hoping to be on the ‘winning side’. - M K Bhadrakumar

  9. Iran should stop this and instead tell the world about the massive corruption of the al saud family.

    I mean all the homosexualities, gamblings, sex rings, tortures, slaveries systematic rapes of imported house slaves... and and and

    tell the world what animals the Saudis are. ( with respect to Arabs)

    (Saudis are a stray subculture of Arabs brotherly to Iranians)

  10. No surprise it's a bunch of disgusting women in Burqas, descendants of Arab rape blood, what I call "fake Iranians" or "Irabians".

    FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHERE ARE THE REAL IRANIANS?
