>> without ever trying diplomacy.

Diplomacy? You don't even know what Diplomacy is.

You hold FDR up as a standard of excellence, yet FDR would never, ever have entertained discussions with a nation behaving has Iran has. Not for a microsecond.

You don't reward behavior that you don't want repeated.

Furthermore, your misunderstanding of the people we're dealing with the Middle East could not be greater. You obviously have not the slightest clue why they do what they do.

All I can say is it a damned good thing Netanyahu is going to be running the show in Israel. He's the only one with what it takes to stand up to these animals.
