2. Heard about it the other day, still waiting for a non-Iranian news source on it.

Nobody else is talking about it, and the world media wouldn't sit on something like that.

10. The media sat on the story of Prince Harry being over in Afghanistan so

yes the media does sit on stories at times when asked to.

4. No.

The website is militantly pro-Israel, full of conspracy theories and "Truther" garbage.

5. You Are Citing A Nut-Case, Sir

The man who wrote the article you link to states elsewhere Israel was a Soviet ally during the Cold War, suggests most anti-Israel statements on blogs are actually by 'New World Order' operatives trying to discredit opposition to Israel, and in general seems to have the whole 'hidden hand of the Jew' psychosis in flamboyant form. The 'report' by Reuters seems to be simply a report Iran claimed this occurred; there remains no other source for the story than an Iranian government press report. His comments seem to suggest the 'attack' on Sec. Clinton was carried out by the Israeli government, to rouse the U.S. to attack Iran....

8. The basis for the claim that Israel was an ally of the Soviet Union in the war may be that the

Soviet Union favored the formation of Israel early on. They either proposed the resolution forming it in the United Nations or were the first nation to vote for it.

From late 1944, Joseph Stalin adopted a pro-Zionist foreign policy, apparently believing that the new country would be socialist and would speed the decline of British influence in the Middle East. Accordingly, in November 1947, the Soviet Union, together with the other Soviet bloc countries voted in favor of the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine, which paved the way for the creation of the State of Israel. On May 17, 1948, three days after Israel declared its independence, the Soviet Union officially granted de jure recognition of Israel, becoming only the second country to recognise the Jewish state (preceded only by the United States' de facto recognition) and the first country to grant Israel de jure recognition.

Golda Meir was appointed Israel's minister plenipotentiary to the Soviet Union, with her term beginning on 2 September 1948 and ending in March, 1949. During her brief stint in the USSR, Meir attended Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur services at the Moscow Choral Synagogue.

In addition to the diplomatic support, arms from Czechoslovakia, part of the Soviet bloc, were crucial to Israel in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. During the war, the Soviet Union supported Israel when it was attacked by Arab countries that opposed the 1947 United Nations General Assembly resolution for the partition of Palestine into a Jewish and an Arab state.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel%E2%80%93Russia_relations

If you read that carefully, you realize that the US is said to have recognized Israel "de facto" but the USSR was the first country to vote in favor of the Parition of Israel and Palestine.

That's where the idea comes from. It's not entirely kooky.

13. I Am Well Aware Of The History, Sir, And What the Man Claims Is High-Test Woo

He is a nut-case, and no reliable source.

You might as well cite Tom Flocco or Wayne Madsen.

19. Hmmm, I don't know.

This guy seems to have on a tin foil hat. He's implying that Mossad attacked a bus of Israeli youths and attempted to assassinate Hillary. I don't buy it.
