Michael Henry;

'I think you are right-but it only takes one idiot leader in a country to press their button-[ and there are plenty of those about the world ]'

Yes. Yes there are. And we need look no further than your own Il Duce to illustrate your point.

Ryan-

" We are not even close to world war 3 "

I think you are right-but it only takes one idiot leader in a country to press their button-[ and there are plenty of those about the world ]- Seen that NBA star Dennis Rodman with north korea's Kim jong-two assholes making idiots of themselves-but long may it continue-When Kim Jong is happy his finger is of his trigger-

BB,

Holocaust deniers would not be put in with that lot. There is a page where we boot the racists and the Nazis but not because of Holocaust denial. If someone wants to make an argument beased on their belief that the Holocaust did not occur it would not go into that section. It is when they go on their anti-Jewish rants using the work of proven falsifiers that we boot them over there. And we allow for the possibility that we might on occasion get it wrong. But as objectionable as John's piece might be I don't believe it qaulifies for the Der Sturmer slot.

As a moderate supporter of the State of Israel even I have to say this piece is a horrid piece of junk. We are not even close to World War 3. That would have to involve the superpowers lining up against one another. US vs. China/Russia while adversaries neither party wants that. Maybe a low intensity conflict resembling the one month israel/Hezbollah war of 2006 but it's hard to see how we are on the brink of a world war.

Perhaps David has a point though. Holocaust deniers would be chucked in there and what John coulter has written here is just as bad.

I can almost hear him lament;

Christians! Join ranks against those filthy Muslims! You've more in common with the Jews than those awful
Arabs!

I stopped taking this guy seriously a long time ago but he's excelled himself this time.

He reminds me of a girl I was at school with; always trying to say something controversial because she'd nothing of substance to say at all. This way she at least got some attention.

David,

no, I don't believe it is. It is a piece I have no sympathy for but it does not fit in that category.

Super post Mary ,John if the good guys from the west and Israel get shot of the "nutters" in Iran and Syria would we guaranteed world peace or would those bastions of decency and democracy unearth another "nutter" somewhere else preferably with oil,gas ,or coal,gold,if you ask me a cara the real "nutters" are a lot close to home than you may think!

John jew-due a good story soon-

" The hard reality is that the west needs to pull out of Afganistan "

John's peace talk ends when its about Isreal-spit out the truth because you have proved that you cant write it belittle john-

This appears like an Alan Shatter broadcast, the boul Dr. of course forgets that while Iran pursues a nuclear power option, the nuclear weapons in the middle east are held by those who occupy Palestine, murder indigenious children as they hide behind their father's and resist anything which may provide a peaceful resolution to the war they began.
Oh one other point, when most of us were growing up the number of Jewish people murdered by the Germans in WW2 was c. 3 million, nowaday's they claim 6 million, what will it be in 20 years?
They are liars and their lies are supported by Britain, France the Germans and the US, they also managed to supply the loyalists with money and weapons and the brits with survellience equipment, some of which was found in 1994.

Of all the pro Israel arguments I've heard this has to be the weakest and laziest.

Attention seeking for attention seeking sake. Yawn.

John Coulter r you the new histrionic clown of the Pensive Quill? I preferred John McGirr because he was grounded in history and had deep substance when one peeled away the Catholic indoctrination blathering... You are right however about the killing of Christians (and Jews) with radicalised Islamists targeting them.... BUT that does not mean Israel is right, has been right nor has clean hands.... In fact it is Israel that created this ongoing hell... and has killed/targeted Arab ppls...

Israel has exhibited time and time again mindless hate towards the Arab ppl and this goes back to the time of Ishmael... There is tribal stuff there ... deep, heavy stuff... Read ur Bible John and know what you be about... Besides you present yourself as a Christian believer - well what did Iosa Criost say? Trouble would come on us believers right and on the non believers! And trouble is on the world. I wouldn’t trust Israel as far as you toss ‘em

What is called the State of Israel is manmade & is a pseudo spiritual number being played out... 666 ring a bell John... Ding ding ding! Red code alert. Don't swop the witch for the bitch now...Tis all in Revelations... from the poxy Vatican river of filth to the false pseudo spiritual Israel. It is actually in Israel the Anti Christ is to be revealed.... Sit back and digest that... (insert a set of rolling eyeballs here)

What you could have perhaps highlighted is the dif between radicalised Islam and non radical Islam else you buy into broad spectrum statements.. This then ups the ante and creates paranoia/hate towards Muslim communities.We are birthed into our cultures and associated religions John It does not mean we chose the religion rather it was hoisted on us....

I wouldn’t get stressed about a third world war simply because with the advanced weaponry we will all be melted to Kingdom come. Read the Quran – it tells the story of what the objectives really are if you want to get insight... But then very few have read it even nominal Muslims... in for a shocker of a surprise when they do...The infidel does not fare well but nor do westernised Muslims...

Re ‘There have even been suggestions some elements of the dissident republican movement have reached a terrorist agreement with Islamic fundamentalist groups,...’
That is old news really old... (insert a set of twitching, paranoid eyes here)

RE ‘The American State Department has already warned that at least half a dozen Islamic radical terrorist cells are based in Ireland, north and south’

Really! CIA trained and all... I would think London has the edge on that.... It is only slightly amusing how the bigger terrorist warns of the lesser terrorist threat and we r all supposed to twitch with fear... all a load of politricks...Republicans waving Palestinian flags does not worry me as it is a sign of solidarity with those whose land was taken and ppl subjugated... What however is troubling is many don’t u/stand the politico/religious stuff... and the ramifications...

One could easily end up a pawn in the games if not clear what is what. (insert a hysterical, shrill scream here) sin-e

2013-03-03T00:23:54.351Z
John,
What scares me is just how close the West is to World War 3. While I have always regarded Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinegad as a complete nutball, Ambassador Taub left me in no doubt how serious Iran’s nuclear threat has become.

You are part right. We are close to World War 3. But the biggest threat isn't from the middle east but from North Korea. There may be the outside chance of a limited nuclear war/strike in the middle east bit nothing more ( one is wayyy too many already). Anyone who hit's israel is fcuked. Period, let's make no mistake about that. Irsrael is going no where.

Syria is just as unstable. It is simply one bunch of Islamic militants fighting another equally sadistic band of Islamic militants. .

John you don't understand middle eastern politics, if you think like that. You are an investigative journalist. Why don't you try Judge Falocne's angle and follow the money. A good starting point would be talking the board of HSBC and ask them about knowingly laundering at least 18 billion green backs of Mexican drug cartel's money. And only get fined 2 billion (not a bad return).

The big problem is that many of these heavily armed gangs are linked to the global Al Qaeda movement.

John, they are all linked together. Mi5/6, CIA, DST, DVLA, Inland Revenu..... And are funded by the same people and by the same banks. They all piss in the same pot.

The American State Department has already warned that at least half a dozen Islamic radical terrorist cells are based in Ireland, north and south.

I've no doubt in that. In fact I'd be surprised if there wasn't/isn't sleeper cells.

2013-03-02T23:18:03.842Z
Not one word of Israel's nuclear capability nor of the ongoing assassination of Iranian scientists and army top brass. Not a word of the terrible suffering of the Palestinians: Child murder, home destruction, land siezure, the killing of detainees, population control, economic strangulation, prisoner hunger strikes, ceasefire breeches, and much more.

Dr Coulter ignores the factors giving rise to Hamas and Islamic Jihad. Israle's refusual to deal honestly with the secular Palestinian organistations in the PLO created a confidence defict amongst the Palestinian people. The PLO under the leadership of Arafat failed to find a fair and just solution to the Palestinian question. Israle, for its part, reneged on every peace accord leaving the secularists exposed and vulnerable to the more radical trends.
