To fight or not, a point of view?

What we used to hear from Donald Rumsfeld and fools like him, you can hear it from BBC now. No problem. Title it as a point of view and publish whatever you like. At the end of the day you can abuse freedom of speech as your defense anyway. So who cares.
This is what I left for this absurd point of view.

And who are you exactly Mr Walden? A military adviser or a columnist? How accurate is your information regarding this neutron bomb which would do the job? What if it is as horrific as it sounds and leaves radioactive fall out. As you probably know, many of these nuclear sites are not far from inhabitant areas. Your chilling suggestion are to use an ATOMIC contraption because Iran MAY make a nuclear bomb and MAY attack Israel, which you yourself admit clearly has nuclear weaponry thought to include a good number of neutron bombs? And what if not all the hidden places known to the west and by attacking some of them, having the knowledge they go ahead and make a nuclear bomb with more determination? From the Iraq experiences we know the intelligent provided before the war was hardly accurate. And last but not least, what if Iran in retaliation launches a missile attack to Israel? How perfect is Israel’s anti missile defence system and how do you know? What if the whole region burns in further instability?

The Decline And Fall Of Practically Everybody

Years ago a translation of this book was quite famous in Iran. It had been translated by a famous translator who himself is a very witty man. For years the critics hesitating about the existence of the original book as nobody heard or read about it. I was curious to know whether this book existed or is it as funny originally or what we read is mastery and humour of our great translator Mr Najaf Daryabandari who has blown a soul to it. I have to admit, I left very disappointed after reading the original. This is a work of humorist who is not funny at all. I'm sure he's done his best but I'm not surprised he had to take his life at the end being so poor not affording to pay his apartment rent.
