You've all been hoodwinked by false news. Probably 'psychological warfare' designed to enrage people over Iran. It's an illusion. Even the Israeli ADL have released a statement saying it's false. There's a report here that says the only evidence was a single report in a Canadian newspaper, which was quickly accepted as fact by the US, Australia and Canada. It was denied, of course, by Iran, but 'of course they'd be lying'. However, the ADL also rejects it. The bill in question relates only to a dress code, not a separation of religions according to dress. The New York Post says that it "does not mention requiring special attire or markings for religious or other minorities."

It's hilarious to watch you guys get up in arms about an unsubstantiated, false report, with all of you claiming it's true, and willing to, once again, go to war over issues that are complete and utter fabrications. There aren't any human rights groups "raising alarms over a new law passed by the Iranian parliament that would require the country's Jews and Christians to wear coloured badges to identify them and other religious minorities as non-Muslims." The entire thing is completely false, and you were taken in by it.

You say: 'what do you have to say now? How are you going to defend this one?'
I say: there's nothing to defend. It's a complete lie. But here, have a cloth. It'll help you wipe the egg off your face.

You say: 'weapons grade uranium was found and you made excuses.'
I say: weapons grade uranium was not found, just 'traces of radioactivity suggesting there was weapons grade uranium associated with the equipment; equipment which was supplied by nuclear weapons-producing countries'. Another lie of yours.

You say: 'you deny Iran is building nuclear weapons but support their right to do so'
I say: as a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Iran has the internationally-allowed right to build nuclear energy programs, as do all members of the NPT, monitored by the International Atomic Energy Agency, which has not found any violation of the treaty, nor any evidence of nuclear weapons development. Evidence? Absolutely none. Conjecture? Lies? Through the roof.

You say: 'you like to compare Bush with Hitler yet you sympathise with Saddam and Iran.'
I say: I don't sympathise with Saddam and Iran. What I resent is the US deciding to act against international laws and conventions, which it helped create in the first place. The EVIDENCE for illegal actions are actually being supplied by the US as it openly and blatantly disregards international law. The evidence is that the US is committing illegal actions, while there is absolutely no EVIDENCE to support the US's claims about Iraq and Iran. The only evidence that exists is that the US lies it's way into whatever it wants.

I'm sorry to see international laws and conventions being broken by the US, which has decided that it can make or break laws as it sees fit, without any regard for anyone else, and without regard for the international standards by which it demands other countries abide by.

I'm also sorry to see so many of you Americans thinking that violating all democratic principles is the way to bring democracy to the world. If democracy is so good and so successful, why are the actions of the US government so representative of a fascist attitude, where might makes right, and the decisions of one man allegedly overrule democratic checks and balances?

I'm so sorry to see so many of you Americans literally demanding a dictatorship, demanding that all your freedoms be taken away from you, and demanding that the US government do whatever it wants to the rest of the world.

This is why Bush and such Americans are linked to Hitler and the Nazis.

I don't care about the left vs. right political fight over WMDs that might have been moved to Syria or were just figments of Western intelligence agency's fantasies.

We need to be careful to not get sidetracked from Iran's dangerous actions.

Making Jewish and Christian people wear badges? That scares me.

Threatening Israel with destruction? That also scares me.

Iranian leaders denying the Holocaust happened? Another sign the Iranian political leadership is crazy.

The question is going to be what can we do and will we do it, if necessary, without having the Middle East erupt into more violence and bloodshed.

The last issue of Atlantic monthly had a really interesting article on a war game they set up in 2004 about how to deal with Iran.

Regardless of the method, it ain't pretty. Even as a liberal, and speaking for most that I know-Iran needs to be dealt with NOW, and has needed to be dealt with. But considering the ties between Iraq and Iran, it's an even more frightening proposition now than it was a few years back.

I don't recall too many people synmpathizing with Iran. Most people I know are frightened of the consequences of open war, which is the likely outcome if Iran is attacked, which also seems increasingly likely.

I also don't recall France and Russia being "bribed" by anyone, nor do I recall any WMD being found. I wholeheartedly supported deposing Hussain-I just wish your buy would have done it for the right reasons alone, not reasons cloaked under his own gains.

All Iran has to do is stop building nuclear weapons and allow unfettered access to their nuclear facilities.

And Bush hasn't isolated anyone. France, Russia and the UN were bribed by Saddam Hussein effectively betraying the US. Now they are appeasing Iran so why should we go along with them and Europe? Bush isn't the problem; Weak Europe and UN corruption is the problem. So start being on the right side and the US won't have to go it alone.

Stop insulting the left, you have no idea what you're talking about. I'm a leftist and I loathe regimes such as the Iranian regime. Now your super freedom lover GW Bush has isolated the US internationally and the arrogance and blindness of the administration strenghtened the position of such barbaric regimes. Can you dig that in your binary system of interpretation of world politics.
