the three other response to your post are idiotic but your post is not very good either. Most evidence out there indicates that Bibi is at minimum partially correct about iran. (i think more than partially)
I am a supporter of engaging iran because at some level we have to make it attractive enough for them to eschew nukes. However this is not an automatic outcome. History is littered with folks who put principles above national interests and at some level iran's principals are quite radical and perhaps irrational. And its the "perhaps irrational" that might force a country like israel which is directly in the crosshairs to take action in self defense. So for the US, negotiate but prepared with the big stick if and when necessary. Big stick doesnt automatically mean war, but it might means sanctions not seen before and a ratcheting up of military pressure. Dont forget there is far more at stake than israels survival here. The Arab states know that iran is a potential threat as well.
