More than 70,000 Iranian student volunteers have registered to carry out suicide bombings against Israel because of Israel's assault on the Gaza Strip. According to the official IRNA news agency, hardline student leader Esmaeil Ahmadi says the students want to fight Israel in support of Hamas - Gaza's Islamic militant rulers. Five hard-line student groups and a conservative clerical group launched a registration drive last week to ask the government to allow them to stage the suicide attacks.

70,000.... do I Hear 80,000.
70,000 going once...
twice...
SOLD! To the idiots that believe anything from Iran.
If they had them, why advertise it?
Plus, by the time they get them there, there isn't going to be Hamas left in Gaza.
Pragmatically, IRAN knows Israel will attack it iff it goes NUKULAR - however, THE ISLAMIST JIHAD NEEDS NUCLEARIZATION AND FOR IRAN TO GO DE FACTO NUKULAR. As R. LEE would say, IRAN has itself a DEEEEEEEELLLLEEEEEEMMMMMMAA [dilemma].

Getting inside israel with a bomb and having the stones to set it off is quite another.
Big talk that amounts to squat.

Let's hope the Iranian's suicide training program is extremely realistic.

The way I see it, once Gaza is pretty well scrubbed of Hamas and its rocketry, Israel has little reason to not go ahead and denuclearize Iran. Preferably while Bush is still POTUS.
The Hezbollah Secretary General says Israel is killing civilians in a desperate move after failing to fight Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
