'War is hell: Iran far stronger than US would like to admit'

Iran has successfully test-fired two long-range missiles on the last day of major naval exercises in the international waters of the Persian Gulf. This comes amid mounting Western pressure on the country over its nuclear ambitions. Tehran says it's ready to counter any attack by enemies like Israel or the United States. Iran has also angrily reacted to new U.S. sanctions targeting its central bank and financial sector. It has been threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz - the world's most important oil export route linking the Persian Gulf to the Indian Ocean. Meanwhile the EU is mulling an embargo on the purchase of Iranian oil, and a decision on that is expected before the end of the month. Seyed Mohammad Marandi from the University of Tehran says US has imposed sanctions against Iran because Tehran opposes American hegemony.

now you sound brainwashed and crazy. im sure it makes you feel really good to believe your enemy will be destroyed but noone on earth knows the future. your comment only shows how racist you are which is apart of the problem. this is how terrorism is born. You blame them then they blame you, and the violence continues for ever. why dont you give plans that will lead to peace? it seems you care more about destroying israel and less about long term peace. this make the region looks uncivilized

LOL PALESTINIANS ARE FINE JUST WITH GAZA!!!!! BUT THE ISRAELIS ALWAYS BULLY THEM NO MATTER WHAT THEIR GOAL IS TO MAKE ALL MUSLIM PEOPLE VANISH FROM EARTH. WAKE UP THEIR WAR CRIMINAL EVIL TERRORIST SCUM BAGS WHO WILL EVEN FUCK THEMSELVES UP IN THE END.

[Mahmoud Ahmadinejad]

fuck no in 2025 i swear Israel wont exist even the Israelis know its written in the fucking bible and all the Jews know about it that's why there is only 5 million Jews living in Israel and it's becoming less. and there is 7 MILLION Jews that live outside Israel. BELIEVE IT OR NOT I DON'T CARE I'M JUST HAPPY ABOUT WHAT I KNOW! HAVE A GOOD DAY.

why do you keep deleting your comments? it makes it difficult to post a rebuttal. anyway, I have not made any personal attacks against you. How could I personally insult you if I dont know you personally? There are many jewish war criminals and there are many muslim war criminals. they just constantly point the finger at each other. Israel will exist as long as the US does so the only way to peace is to accept that and MOVE ON. I care far more about peace than i care about Muslims or Israel.
