Very simple. The time for talk with Iran is over. This issue needs to go straight to the U.N. In addition, the IAEA should demand access to all suspect sites. If they are refused, a security council resolution should be passed to allow U.N. forces to blockade Iran interdict any shipments to Iran for inspection. The U.N. should also impose heavy economic sanctions on Iran. We pull out all the stops to make Iran feel pain, short of war. In another 5 years, they will be so impoverished that they will comply. If they don't, then they either learn to live in an impoverished state, their disgruntled youth foment a rebellion, or they decide they want to change their ways and rejoin the international community.

However, I don't think the Europeans or the liberals in this country have the stomach or the patience for it. This lack of spine among the Europeans and liberals is what pushes neocon thinkers into war. If they felt there was a viable alternative to war, then maybe they'd take that path. But when faced with a spineless UN and a Europe not willing to go the whole distance short of war, then war becomes an inevitability. And if you think war with Iraq has been a disaster, wait until you see what war with Iran will be like.
