      <title>&lt;span class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;Iran&lt;/span&gt; crushes U.S. 6-1 in wrestling exhibition </title>

      <description>http://espn.go.com/new-york/story/_/id/9279942/iran-crushes-us-6-1-wrestling-exhibition-new-york-grand-central-terminal

Iran's wrestling team visited the United States for the first time in a decade and found a virtual home meet.The
 fans waving Iranian flags and stomping on the temporary bleachers were 
treated to a show of dominance by the wrestling power Wednesday in the 
exhibition at Grand Central Terminal. Iran beat the Americans 6-1.&quot;It's
 typical Iranian. Wherever we go, they do the same thing,&quot; two-time 
world champion Mehdi Taghavi Kermani said through a translator after 
winning his match at 145 1/2  pounds.The fans' chanting and 
horn-blowing echoed off the intricate patterns on the ceiling high above
 and through the curtains separating Vanderbilt Hall from the commuters 
rushing home to the suburbs. The event dubbed &quot;The Rumble on the Rails&quot; 
marked the fourth straight year a New York City landmark was transformed
 into a wrestling meet to raise money for charity, with the last two in 
Times Square.But this one took on added significance beyond 
supporting wrestling nonprofit Beat the Streets. In February, the 
International Olympic Committee recommended that the sport be dropped 
starting with the 2020 Games.So there were the United States, 
Iran and Russia all together Wednesday, hoping the IOC takes to heart 
the symbolism of the three nations peacefully sharing a wrestling mat. 
The Americans swept five freestyle matches from the Russians later in 
the day.Iran also will face the U.S. in Los Angeles on Sunday.

Wrestling
 is now one of eight sports seeking to fill one spot in the 2020 
Olympics. The IOC board will meet May 29 in Russia to recommend a short 
list, with the final decision in September.&quot;This is what we're 
trying to do right now,&quot; said 22-year-old Kyle Dake, who could be an 
American star of the 2020 Olympics. &quot;This is how we're going to save 
Olympic wrestling.&quot;The youngster was the lone bright spot for the
 U.S. against Iran. At 163 pounds, he beat veteran Hassan Tahmasebi, 
who's almost 10 years older, in his first major senior-level 
international match.In March, Dake became the first wrestler to 
win NCAA titles in four weight classes. College wrestling uses 
folkstyle, and Dake hadn't competed in freestyle in more than a year 
before Wednesday. Both his periods were scoreless and went to a leg 
clinch, and he won the first despite losing the ball draw.&quot;It was really loud in there. Feels like we were in Tehran,&quot; he joked. &quot;What's going on? Where's our USA folks?&quot;

They
 got going chanting &quot;U-S-A U-S-A!!&quot; during the Americans' second meet of
 the day. Some of the top U.S. wrestlers, including Olympic champ Jordan
 Burroughs, took the mat against Russia, which did not send its best 
lineup. Burroughs remained undefeated, though he needed three periods to
 beat Saba Khubetzhty at 163 pounds and cracked a molar in a headlock.&quot;I had a filling in this tooth, and it's somewhere out there on the mat,&quot; he said with a laugh.</description>

      <description>Ok Guys My You tube account Was banned (Many Snackbars report me) so I lost all my subscriptions and favorites however I make this new informative post who can answered many question 

MY ENGLISH IS A FUCKING BAD I KNOW SO YOU NO NEED TO COME HERE TO SAID WHO EVERYONE SEE. 
  
  

 Israel 

*Israel got at the moment the better military Force in the Middle East US share their better System and technology with Israel

*Israel Arrow 3 Is a project at the moment not ready yet

*The best Air Defense in the Middle is the Israel Air defense

*Israel can Strike Very Easy Iran with Ballistic Missiles Iran no got a good Anti Missile shield 

*Israel Aid the Ayatollahs during the Iran Iraq war but Romance over

*Israel can shot down Syrian Airacraft into Syria Air Space - Syria can do the Same into Israel Air Space 

*At the military point the only winner in the Syrian conflict is Israel and the Terrorist Al Qaeda.. so the Snackbars destroying the Syrian Military capabilities and Will be make very easy if Israel decided bombing Syria all the fucking time killing Child with White Phosphorus like Zionists do all the Time in Gaza  (THAT IS WHY I WANT DEATH ALL THESE SNACKBARS BASTARDS) 

*Israel got many good large force form good Logistical vehicles 

*Israel Armour - Mechanized is are very good and well updated

*IAF is the first Air force from the Middle East very modern 

*IAF got the capacity from bombing Iran the problems is the Route. 

*Israel have nuclear weapons but are inactive   (80) 

*Jericho 1, Jericho 2, Jericho 3 can carried nuclear head Israel can delete Tehran from the Map and any other Middle east City if they wish   the range from Jericho 3 is huge 

*If Israel know Iran is close to got nuclear weapons they will be destroyed the Iranians installations with the Ballistic Missiles.  

*The Middle East countries who are a Nuclear Threat Are Israel and Pakistan 

*Israel links with Al Qaeda terrorists in Syria must be exists.  

*Israel is a very moderns Military force in a pretty Small territory to defend it make easy the Early Warning 


 Syria 

*After Israel the Second country with better military capabilities is Syria (In 2011) so After more than two years the fucking Zionists Snackbars doing damage is unclear what is the real Syrian Army force now. 

*The Map of the SyAD not included Pantsir-S1 this map is from 2007-2009 Syria get Pantsir-S1 in 2010.

*After the Lasted IAF strike inside Syria Is totally stupid the Snackbar theory who claim &amp;quot;Israel Assad Protector&amp;quot; If Israel decided Help Assad all Snackbars die in just days - Israel Working VERY HARD in HELP Al Qaeda in Syria.

*The 50% Of the Syrian tank are a fucking old using during the Yom Kippur War but part of that is well outdated

*The Damage from the Syrian Armor structure after two years is around 850 - 900 Tanks / APC /IFV combat vehicles destroyed / Captured it is less than the 15% of the Syrian Armor force - Probability Russia will be replace it soon for more moderns military vehicles. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=8ec_1366502995

*Syrians APCs are outdated.

*The Israel Attack on the &amp;quot;Syrian Nuclear Reactor&amp;quot; is a Zionist bullshit without any Serious evidence  http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=544_1368545767

*Syrians IFVs force is more decent than the APCs force but outdated too (Most Part).

*For Snackbars is impossible win they only can Win if NATO move in

*Most Syrian Air force is Still obsolete compared with Israel, Israel ask Russia many times for no sold Advanced planes to Syria 

*SyAF got very good and solid ground attack capabilities.

*SyAF Losses 100% Confirmed are less than 12 War Planes. 

*Arab Saudi got a long Range of Chinese Missiles this worried more Syria than Israel Missiles  that is probability Syria are working on do a Anti Ballistic Missile Shield like Israel got now.

*Syrian Army is in rebuild up phase if the Situation no change the &amp;quot;War&amp;quot; must be over in April 2014. 

*Syria got the Military capacity for attack Israel and can do high Damage however if Syria do It NATO will be move to Syria that is because Israel do a lot provocation every the time

*The more large range Syrian missile is the Scud D with 700km of range 

*NATO can nuke Syria in a fews Hours - Not Surprise the Only NATO &amp;quot;Equivalent&amp;quot; is Russia  

*Syria can hit with Ballistic Missiles the Al Qaeda bases in Turkey that is Why NATO deployed Patriots in the Turkey Border just for saving Al Qaeda Ass

*Syria need replace some oldies weapons for news elements.   


 Iran 

*Iranian military capabilities (Air Force - Army) are poor Saddam destroyed the most part of the Ayatollahs Air Force - Army.

*During the gulf war part of the Saddam Air Force defected to Iran but Iran got a UN Weapon embargo the quantity of Iranian combat planes operatives are less than 100 according some reports.

*Iran at the CONVENTIONAL military point can't help Assad too much it is a Myth of the Zionist - Iran Only can send medicines - some individual equipment thinks like that but nothing &amp;quot;Stronger&amp;quot;

*The conventional military capabilities from Iran are Worts during the Sha Era

*Iran got a decent infantry force well equipped 

*The Ballistic Missile capabilities from Iran are unclear 

*Iranians doing Photoshops in their Ballistics Missile tests

*Iranian Zulfiqar Tanks are just a local updated from oldies Americans tanks using during the Vietnam War. 

*Iranians Made good medium Range Ballistic Missiles 

*The capacity from Iran to attack Israel is nothing Israel Shield can intercept all the fews Iranians missiles 

*The &amp;quot;5o Generation Stealth&amp;quot; Iranian plane is a laughable bullshit only Russia and US can do it China no made one 100% 5o Generation Stealth plane working yet. 

*Iranians got very large and good Air Transport force

*Iranians got a medium military industry who can be better soon it worried Israel 

*Iranians got a nuclear program and build a nuclear plan with Russian Assistance   

*Iranians got nothing for Stooped the Israel Ballistic Missiles 

*Iran Navy is very large and a bit decent but NATO can destroyed it without major problems. 




Others countries:


 Jordan  Small but decent Army / Air force 

 Iraq  Very good Army Well Equipped by the Americans - But no got a Combat Air Force  yet however the transport and logistic capabilities is decent - They also get Saddam Era Equipment (In 1991 Saddam Was able to delete Israel from the Map) that is the basic Reason because US decided killed him plus 500k of Sunni Muslims who support him. 

 United Arab Emirates  Small Military force but very good and modern Air Force, Army and Navy. 

 Lebanon  Decent army with good infantry but in a total submission with Israel in 2006 Israel bombing AT LEAST more than 500 times the Lebanese territory killed many civilians - The Two Times who Israel bombing Syria this years they used the Lebanese Air Space - Lebanese must be hate Israel a lot If you bombing my Dear Mongolia 500+ Times I will be hate you a lot too 

 Egypt   Egyptians got a large very good military force Equipped by Second Hand US Weapons Egyptians got ballistic missile capabilities according with my info more long range Egyptian Missile is just the scud B

 Arab Saudi  Is the country who wasted more money in weapons in all the fucking middle East, their military hardwares are very moderns From EU and US many weapons from Al Qaeda in Syria come from Arab Saudi -  After Israel Arab Saudi is the Most important allied from US in the Middle East Saudi Got a very dangerous small quantity from long range Chinese Missiles - Arab Saudi could be Very soon the first military force from the Middle East. 

I can do mistakes in some elements but you Experts can fixed it with you comments LOL</description>

      <description>The axis of terrorism includes Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas. 
Exporting its 
radical Islamic agenda, Iran provides Hezbollah and Hamas with funds, 
weapons, guerilla training.

This is something you should know before stating any political opinions about the middle east.</description>

Iran Chases U.S. Drone Over Persian Gulf

The chase, which occurred Tuesday, followed a more serious encounter in November, when Iranian warplanes fired on, but missed, a Predator drone carrying out a similar classified surveillance mission.        
Pentagon officials said that in both instances the drones were in international airspace.        
Even so, the episodes illustrate the chance of unintended hostilities 
arising from encounters between remotely piloted surveillance craft and 
Iranian warplanes in the heavily militarized Persian Gulf.        
The Pentagon press secretary, George Little, said that in the episode on
 Tuesday, an Iranian F-4 jet fighter approached within 16 miles of the 
Predator, which was being escorted by a pair of American military 
aircraft. United States officials did not say what type of American 
planes were involved.        
&quot;The Iranian aircraft departed after a verbal warning,&quot; Mr. Little said.
 An initial Pentagon statement said one of the American escort planes 
had fired a flare to warn the Iranian jet away but later retracted that 
report. Mr. Little said that after the encounter in November, the United
 States sent a message to  Iran 
 that the American military would &quot;continue to conduct surveillance 
flights over international waters consistent with longstanding practice 
and our commitment to the security of the region.&quot;        
&quot;We also communicated that we reserve the right to protect our military 
assets as well as our forces and will continue to do so going forward,&quot; 
Mr. Little said.        
Iran deployed two Russian-made Su-25 jets known as Frogfoots in the 
November episode, which was the first known instance of Iranian 
warplanes firing on an American surveillance drone. The Predator model 
involved in both encounters resembles an upside-down flying spoon and is not easily confused with a piloted jet fighter.        
In 2011, an RQ-170 surveillance drone operated by the C.I.A. rather than the military crashed in Iran during a mission that was believed to have been intended to map suspected nuclear sites. That episode came to light only after Iran announced that it had electronically attacked the drone and guided it to a landing. American officials said the drone had crashed after a technical malfunction.</description>

      <title>Salehi: &amp;quot;We Condemn Chemical Weapons&amp;quot;</title>
      <pubDate>Mon, 13 May 2013 17:43:35 -0400</pubDate>

      <description>In a SPIEGEL interview, Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi discusses the civil war in Syria, his government's &quot;condemnation&quot; of chemical weapons and his belief that Tehran is in a strong position to initiate negotiations for a settlement between the opposition and government in Damascus. 

Ali Akbar Salehi looks exhausted. In the last 48 hours, the Iranian foreign minister had a lengthy meeting in Jordan with King Abdullah II before flying to beleaguered Damascus to discuss the situation in Syria with President Bashar Assad. He had hardly returned to Tehran when he accompanied his own president on a campaign trip within Iran, which is in the middle of an election campaign.

Still, Salehi found the time to meet with two SPIEGEL editors in Tehran last Thursday. Israel had bombed targets in Damascus only 10 days earlier. The power struggle in Syria has been escalating since the beginning of the year, and chemical weapons may have been used.

Iran, Assad's large ally, is playing a key role, both openly and behind the scenes. After two conferences on Syria last year, Salehi is now planning another meeting with the aim of putting an end to the bloodshed.

 Moscow Plays for Time 

Moscow and Washington have the same goal and have announced an international summit on the Syrian crisis. The Russians, however, have been doing everything possible to support the Assad regime. In addition to supplying weapons and ammunition, Moscow has troops stationed at its naval basis in the Syrian port city of Tartus and in air defense positions.

In reality, Moscow appears to be playing for time, primarily to prevent United States President Barack Obama from intervening militarily. Because poison gas was allegedly used against civilians, Obama could be forced to do just that, even though he doesn't want to be drawn into the war. As the Wall Street Journal reported, Obama's current preference is for a negotiated solution rather than to overthrow Assad. The American president wants to preserve the government apparatus in Syria to avoid total chaos.

While the West is noting with concern the strengthening of Sunni fanatics among the rebels in Syria, Alawites, who are fighting for Assad, are calling for a campaign against their Muslim adversaries. The Shiite Hezbollah from Lebanon is also involved, with thousands of its men already positioned in Syria.

According to Western intelligence information SPIEGEL has obtained, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Iranian Revolutionary Guard General Qasem Soleimani decided in early March to move their liaison office from Damascus to Tehran as quickly as possible. They also aim to send more fighters to Assad's aid.

Salehi, 64, is a key figure in the Middle East and one of the few Iranian politicians to enjoy the trust of many powerful figures in the region while at the same time having an appreciation for the West. A nuclear physicist, Salehi is seen as relatively open-minded. He earned his PhD at the elite Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and he is more familiar with the Iranian nuclear program than most.

Most of all Salehi, like few other members of the government, has the full support of revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has the final word on all key policy issues in Tehran.

 Interview transcript: 

 SPIEGEL : Mr. Foreign Minister, you have just returned from Damascus, where you spoke with President Bashar Assad. Israeli fighter jets bombed several targets there 10 days ago. How did Assad react to the Israeli attacks?

 Salehi : He was unimpressed by the military strike. The man I met with is extremely determined and sticking to his course. I had the same impression six months ago, but this time the president seemed even more resolute. Those who believe that Bashar Assad is becoming fickle or that his government is collapsing are suffering from an illusion. The president is pleased with the progress his military is making. He says that his military leaders have the upper hand.

 SPIEGEL : That contradicts all the information we have. Instead, the rebels appear to be advancing.

 Salehi : I don't believe that Assad is portraying the situation unrealistically. When the conflict began two years ago, many said that his government couldn't last long. And now? He's still there. Don't underestimate Bashar Assad.

 SPIEGEL : What is your assessment of Assad's restrained reaction to Israel's air strikes?

 Salehi : It isn't a sign of weakness. The president responded levelheadedly. The next time Syria will strike back, he told me.

 SPIEGEL : Assad is threatening war with Israel?

 Salehi : The president said that his people are literally urging him to defend himself, fiercely and immediately. The situation will escalate if the other side doesn't hold back and continues to bomb the Syrians' military and research facilities.

 SPIEGEL : That's Assad's version. According to information obtained by Western intelligence services, the attack targeted weapons transports bound for the Lebanese group Hezbollah, which is aligned with the Syrian regime.

 Salehi : You know, you can claim everything is a Hezbollah facility in an attempt to justify intervening in Syria's internal affairs.

 SPIEGEL : But you certainly aren't denying that Iran supplies Hezbollah with weapons, some of which are transported through Syria.

 Salehi : But they don't even need that. Hezbollah leader Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah said recently that he is very well supplied and has no need (for weapons). Independent from that, Hezbollah is engaged in a resistance that we support. And the Syrians have little need for our help. President Assad has a large army with hundreds of thousands of men under arms. Over the decades, his government has armed itself against its ruthless enemy, Israel, and he doesn't need a few guns from here or there.

 SPIEGEL : Western intelligence agencies say that Iran already has a plan B for the event that Damascus can no longer serve as a hub for Iranian arms shipments to Hezbollah: an airlift between Tehran and Beirut.

 Salehi : I'm tired of constantly having to deny accusations that are completely absurd. If anyone is making such claims, he should provide proof.

 SPIEGEL : Then how do you explain the Israeli attacks?

 Salehi : It was a coordinated campaign between the rebels, who are losing ground, and the Zionist regime. The Israelis came to the aid of the rebels by attacking the Syrian army. It wasn't about their positions or Hezbollah arms depots. I received reports that a rebel commander even publicly expressed his gratitude for the Israeli support.

 SPIEGEL : Actually, isn't Assad under more pressure than the armed opposition?

 Salehi : This president has the situation completely under control. He is very well informed about everything that is going on. Bashar Assad believes in victory and will resolutely pursue his path.

 SPIEGEL : Does he seriously believe that he can survive this conflict?

 Salehi : I wasn't under the impression that Damascus is under siege. The city seems vibrant and clean, the streets are crowded, there are traffic jams and people are going to work. On our approach to the airport, I saw farmers working in their fields in the surrounding countryside. Even I was astonished by how normal it looked.

 SPIEGEL : Your description is a far cry from what our colleagues are reporting from there. They say that the rebels are already in the city's suburbs.

 Salehi : I have a different analysis. According to our information, the population does not support the armed portion of the opposition. People are increasingly realizing that many of the insurgents are mercenaries, controlled by foreign powers ...

 SPIEGEL : ... do you mean Saudi Arabia and other Persian Gulf countries?

 Salehi : As foreign minister, I can't name any names. But there are countries that support these mercenaries. A few months ago, there may have been some sympathy for these rebels among a portion of Syrians, but that has now changed. The people have awakened and now oppose them.

 SPIEGEL : You are condemned to optimism. Your government can't afford an overthrow of the Assad regime.

 Salehi : Damascus is indeed an important partner for us, one that we don't want to lose. But some countries make it too easy for themselves. They believe that by striking Syria they'll weaken us. In that sense, the struggle for Syria is partly a proxy war. And we admire the Syrian government for putting up such impressive resistance.

 SPIEGEL : But the threat is growing for the entire region.

 Salehi : There will be serious consequences if Israel doesn't exercise restraint. You can burn down an entire forest with a single match. However, an expansion of the conflict would be extremely dangerous for the Zionists, which is why they'll think carefully about what they do.

 SPIEGEL : Does the Assad regime enjoy your unconditional support, even if it uses chemical weapons in the civil war?

 Salehi : We too were the target of many poison gas attacks in the eight-year war with Iraq. We condemn chemical weapons.

 SPIEGEL : Then you would have to drop your support for Assad, if there is evidence that he is using chemical weapons.

 Salehi : We are decidedly opposed to weapons of mass destruction of all kinds.

 SPIEGEL : But the regime has huge stockpiles. And there are indications that poison gas, albeit in very small amounts, was used in Syria.

 Salehi : But not by the president's troops. It was the Syrian government that brought the victims of poison gas attacks to the attention of the United Nations. I am convinced that the foreign mercenaries were the culprits. Nevertheless, I wrote a letter to United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and urged him to investigate these horrific incidents. We have called upon the UN to send inspectors.

 SPIEGEL : Civilians were among the alleged victims. Why would the rebels do something like that?

 Salehi : So that Assad can be blamed as the culprit. And perhaps to see how the United States responds. President Barack Obama has said that the Syrian government's use of chemical weapons is his red line. The rebels want to draw America into the war.

 SPIEGEL : You draw the same red line as America, &quot;the Great Satan&quot; -- an odd alliance.

 Salehi : It's a question of one of our fundamental principles: We will never tolerate the use of weapons of mass destruction, no matter who uses them. If others share our principles, we welcome it, no matter who they are.

 SPIEGEL : Moscow and Washington want to prepare an international conference on Syria. Will you participate?

 Salehi : We haven't received an invitation yet. But of course we would attend. We are a power factor in the region. We could initiate negotiations between the opposition and the government in Syria. But the conflict can only be resolved if everyone seeks a solution without restrictions. For us, this means that the end of Assad cannot be a precondition of talks.

 SPIEGEL : So what solutions does Tehran propose?

 Salehi : We aren't acting on our own, but instead are in constant contact with our friends in Cairo. The Egyptians have a plan, and even if we don't agree with them on all the details, we do support their proposals.

 SPIEGEL : Is a new Cairo-Tehran axis taking shape?

 Salehi : We are expanding our relationship and hope that Egypt will be able to achieve a great deal in the Arab world with its political influence. We share three demands on Syria: There should be no foreign intervention, the country's integrity and sovereignty must be preserved, and the government and opposition should form a shared interim leadership. This leadership must lead the country into a new era. There is no other alternative.

 SPIEGEL : Do you also envision a solution for another major conflict, the dispute over Iran's nuclear program?

 Salehi : We have a right to the civilian use of nuclear energy. Our entire nation wants us to defend this right.

 SPIEGEL : President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has repeatedly provoked the West. Will Iran be more accommodating toward the global community after it elects a new president on June 14?

 Salehi : There will be strictly no compromises on this issue, regardless of the new president's political stripe. Nevertheless, I hope that we will be able to find more common ground in the next rounds of negotiations, and come up with a solution that benefits both sides.
