Israel is an honorable country and one of out best friends.

Yes. They are very honourable when it comes to honouring international law, including human rights laws. *wink* *wink*

"What do you think of Western civilization?" Gandhi was asked. "I think it would be a good idea," he said.

We cannot trust a Muslim nation. They murder homosexuals. Wish to kill Jews. Wish to destroy Israel. Are these qualities you find ideal in a friend?

Who said we need to be friends with anyone who breaks international and human rights laws?

Yes Marcus and Israel states every day in its speeches its pointed its missiles at the US pacific coast like Iran. As well Israel finances terrorists world wide, funds terror groups to take over countries I mean it is exactly no different then Iran. Thanks for pointing that out. For a second I thought there was a difference. Silly me.

Speaking about dripping with hypocracy Marcusm since you'd have Canada cut ties with countries who break international law and human rights this means you support Harper's position on Iran and would have him cut ties with all the Arab nations of the ME, China, Russia, oh no wait.....you only meant Israel.

Got it thanks Marcus.

Indeed silly you.

and before you get your knickers into the twist or get paranoid as you usually carry on with your rants it is kactus not marcus. Neither am i a muslim nor anti semite or any group you like to label people who disagree with you. Cheap tactics to kill off any arguments. Kind of like your style.

You'd have Canada to be close allies to Hamas.

No I wouldn't.

Remember that the next time you accuse someone of something they have never said.

Yes. You. You drip with hypocrisy.

It's not okay to treat Israel like it needs to be given a special status. It shouldn't.

Israel should be tried for the criminal activities against the Palestinians. Everything from war crimes, to house demolitions to land and resources theft.

A friend and a NATO member. Turkey. And I guess we can consider Saudi Arabia and Qatar allies in a sense. And how many cut'n'paste responses do you have in your playbook?

Looks like the Russia, Iran, Iraq, Assad, Hezbollah involvement is bringing Iran ground troops into the battle:

http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/10/01/us-mideast-crisis-syria-iranians-exclusi-idUSKCN0RV4DN20151001

It points to an emerging military alliance between Russia and Assad's other main allies - Iran and Hezbollah - focused on recapturing areas of northwestern Syria that were seized by insurgents in rapid advances earlier this year. The vanguard of Iranian ground forces began arriving in Syria: soldiers and officers specifically to participate in this battle. They are not advisors ... we mean hundreds with equipment and weapons. They will be followed by more," the second source said. Iraqis would also take part in the operation, the source said.

Hey Harper - Time to get our Canadian airplanes out of there unless we want to join the Iranian offensive. If this is the group that minimizes ISIS then Iran will be the major power in the region.

BTW - Who are Canadian airplanes bombing in that region? Assad troops or Iraq troops or Iranian troops or Russian troops - they are all part of the same coalition - but Iraq is in our coalition - is it not? Is Iran not on our side against ISIS?

Get our folks out of that fiasco that is soon going to become a tragedy!!

What? I recall when people here said the CIA and USA were not helping rebels, aka terrorists. But there is the admission!

McCain said Thursday that some Russian airstrikes in Syria were aimed at CIA-backed groups fighting the Assad regime, echoing claims from activists.

McCain, who chairs the Senate Armed Services Committee, told CNN he "can absolutely confirm to you that they were strikes against our Free Syrian Army, or groups that have been armed and trained by the CIA, because we have communications with people there."

The bomb they developed is very primitive. Believe it or not, it's not very hard. And there is more than sufficient information available on how to build a very basic nuclear bomb in widely available physics textbooks. The only hard part is getting the needed amounts of enriched uranium or plutonium to build it.

Actually its pretty hard without help. North Korea was able to shop at Dr Kahns nuclear super market for components and plant designs. Iran is having to bake at least most of its program from scratch, and it IS hard. Not only is it hard to get your hands on proven plant designs, but constuction and procurement is extremely hard and expensive.

I question things because I am human. And call no one my father who's no closer than a stranger

Wait a sec....what happened to "we love Iran" strategy for Canada ?

Like I said, getting the required material is hard. That's why all the deals focus on the amount of centrifuges, amount of Uranium, ability to enrich, etc.

Making a simple weapon, given that you have available material, isn't. Most any physics grad student could do it.

On Guard are you suggesting Bush supports Iran and Obama siding with Iranian terrorism? Really? Lol. "You guys" you say. "You guys". My how you generalize for all Americans- then again this comes from someone who will generalize not just for all Americans, but all Israelis, all Zionists, all Jews, all cconservatives, anyone who supports Harper-but-we both know you would pop a hernia over anyone suggesting if a terrorist is a Muslim? Really? Yes. So if you think you are on solid ground with that attempt to defend Big Guy I have two words-tee and hee.

Bish pointed out and rightfully so that Big Guy the no.1 lobyist for Iran on this thread saying Canada should ally with Iran and for that matter leave any fighting of ISIL to Putin (that was funny) contradicted himself in his latest lecture. Your attempt to suggest Bush supports Iranian terrorists as do Americans well you run with that.

It gets better though because I am now being told my Marcus/Kactus how Israel should be tried for terrorism while they won't utter the slightest peep about Syria, Iran, Isil, Hamas Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, Al Quaeda-see we live on a forum in a world where if its an Israeli or American, its capable of being smeered as a terrorist, but the actual terrorists or wonderful human rights loving nations like Russia, China, hey now, we say nothing.

So Kactus now that you have brought up your personal identity-what-should I ask if are you a member of the Canadian Legion? Lol wait don't tell me you are a Satanist. Don't start what you won't finish. Its easy to come on this board and say what you are not. Saying what you really stand for, saying who you really are, lol, we both know that aint happening so move on. Don't think your throwing out some negatives means a damn thing. Your words- they say exactly who you are and what you stand for-period.

I go by your words. They drip with a bias and language syntax you can't hide.

There is a Yiddish expression you might like Kactus is it it goes like this..." A shmuck goes out and spends a fortune to change his name...a putz does the same and also forgets to save enough money to fix his nose...."

Pinnochio's name kept growing every time he denied his real name.

Let's say that Obama is simply looking out for the USA. The country in which you live in. Would it be better for him to make the USA his first priority? Would you rather him put Israel before the USA?

GH, don't even doubt it. So called a "liberal lawyer" will not be so "liberal" when the interests of US is put ahead of Israel. Make no mistake about it. Thanks god US has a 'sane' president that is really working hard to make a change. They don't like it because for once someone is making some sense instead of just licking Libby's and Israeli lobbies back. Now is turning into Canada.

I don't see how it serves the U.S. interest to surrender influence and power in a vital and volatile part of the world. Iran, at its best, is an unpredictable and fickle country. In no way is Iran similar to the U.S., culturally, linguistically or in form of government. Israel is.

How well would a GLBT demonstrator do in Tehran?

You are picking nits. Why are you picking nits? Yes, I know Iranians are Persians. So what? In terms of Israel they behave the same as Arabs.

You seem very confident that the world sees things as superficially as you do.
By superficial you seem to mean having any sense of right and wrong.

That ship has already sailed though when you overthrew the Baath party in Iraq and put a Shia/Iranian proxy in charge. Like it or not, Iran is now an upper tier regional power, and if you want to get things done over there then sometimes its going to be in your interests to work with them.

No. By superficial, I mean not thorough, deep, or complete. That's the usual impression I get when I come across one of Argus' comments.

So the first hurdle of a nuclear deal has been met:

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/M/ML_IRAN_NUCLEAR?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2015-10-14-12-30-42

A senior council of Iranian clerics and lawyers on Wednesday approved implementing the landmark nuclear deal with world powers, sealing the final required step in the process despite hard-liners' efforts to derail it. Over to you USA.
