If i were Mr Brown, i'd start a brand new initiative called: "putting britain first" and focusing on the issues that effect britain, from crime to the economy, from tackling waste in the public sector to resolving energy needs.
He has the ability, we're all waiting for him to do something.

Ian, uk,

Iran doesn't want nuclear bombs anyway

hether, boston, uk

The Palestinians got £30Million in assistance from Britain and Israel £30Billion from America.

George, london, uk

But Mr Brown +others, you're not making logical sense.

Do you believe in our nuclear deterrent or not?

If you do - then Iran having the biggest stockpile in the world is not a problem as our nukes DETER an attack.

If you don't - then admit deterrence is flawed and get rid of ours.

Which is it?

Laura Roberts, London, UK

Here he goes again! Is he setting himself up for a lucrative lecture around the world, when he is kicked out of office? Prancing and posturing on the world stage when he has no mandate and can't solve his own country's problem let alone any others! Send him back for early retirement to Scotland!

Trevor Dee, Torbay, UK

Nobody has provided any proof that Iran is building nuclear weapons. Iran's "nookular" bombs are as imagnary as Saddam's were. Indeed the only grounds anyone has to suspect that Iran might build nuclear weapons under their reactor is that Israel has been doing so for the last 20 years.

I would be more impressed with these comments if the spelling was correct. "Briton" is a country? "Mr Brown's pleadge?" And what on earth is a "hard neck?"

Norman, Anstruther, United Kingdom

Why do politicians need to declare that they are 'friends of Israel' when Israel is in defiance of, and, treat with contempt, so many UN resolutions? (We won't bother discussing their treatment of the Palestinians here!) Perhaps Iran would not be seeking a nuclear option, if Israel did not have one!

Kevin Sullivan, ROEHAMPTON, UK

Briton is a country with gradually weak international influence and a series of domestic problems. But the governmnet is still so arrogant to DO something in the complicated Mid-East. It's 2008 other than 1908 or 1808.

Ran, York, UK

Why are you calling Israel "Tel Aviv"? Should we be calling the UK "Birmingham"? Or the US "New York"?! Brown was actually giving his speech in the Knesset, the Israeli parliament,which is situated in the country's one and only capital, Jerusalem.

Shalom Lev, Ganei Tikva, Israel

I am sure that the Iranians pay as much heed to Brown as did Mugabe in Zimbabwe.

'Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far', is a saying accredited to Teddy Roosevelt. Conversely, Brown talks tough, is impotent and is going nowhere.

He's just an embarrassment.

Rick, London, England

It's hard to undersand how our PM Gordon Brown could help
stoping Iran, from what it says about Israel getting rid of Israel
from map of Earth?
Although this problem was created by PM Clement Attlee,
in 1848, but today we have, born and bred people in Israel ?
How to make Iran understand

Cllr Ken Tiwari (Independent), Oxford , United Kingdom

It's a bit of a hard neck, denying a country the right to have Nuclear weapons when you have yourself. Talking to Iran would be a better idea, the people of Iran are Ok its the ones running it who are crazy like Brown, Tony , George Bush and Maggie, all warmongers.

Dave Madley, Alicante, Spain

1) We already have plenty of nuclear weapons
2) Mr Brown is perfectly capable of destroying any country with his social and financial policies.

stuart, london, UK

Mr Brown's pleadge that Britain would lead the charge for further sanctions is silly. As the US and the European Union are already in the front, is Britain going to elbow them to the side. So of Mr Brown's rhetoric is simply rubbish.

Joan Jefferson, London, UK

If we thought the oil price is high now, you can just imagine how hight it would rise to , if there was an attack on Iran by Israel.

Clive, Dartford, Kent

While Mr Brown is free to be 'friends' with whoever he pleases on a personal level, I sincerely hope that this un-elected halfwit is not positioning the nation for yet another protracted conflict in the Middle East.

Dan, Bristol,

Keep him there !!!! I am sure the Iranians are trembling in their shoes !!!!
