Didn't the US have an offer on the table at one point to do the same thing? Allow Iran to operate nuclear plants but they must return all used fuel back to the US?
are you against or for that? I'm just curious.
I think a peaceful solution is the best with Iran...military action on a country whose population is actually somewhat pro American would be idiotic.
Here's the scenario that would make sense:
1: "Mr. President! We know Usama is in Region-X, but he's got a lot of zealots with him and a ground attack would cost a lot of American soldiers lives to find him, and even then it's a maybe due to the terrain and our unfamiliarity with the area!"
2. "Alright, Neutron bomb the region and quarantine it until the radiation blows over."
Simple, to the point, and it provides inescapable death for Usama and his most trusted lieutenants/advisors/guards/soldiers. We've already let him get away once, we should take a much tougher position next time we think we have him cornered.

Ah, so you're saying we could have killed two birds with one stone, eh?
LOL. OK, I'd go for that.Of course, I'm STILL waiting for us to kill the damn Iraqi's and take their oil so we can stop paying $2 a frickin' gallon, but whatever.

U.N. Says Iran Blocked Investigation of Nuclear Program
Iran never let UN search all of its nuclear sites. There are many hidden sites where they could possibly make enrich uranium for weapons purposes.

Oh an excellent plan, with only one minor flaw.
When you go in after nuking a region and find that he wasn't actually there and you had bad information, claiming you did it to liberate the gamma radiation infested corpses littering the countryside is going to ring just a little hollow.
Besides, it's easy for you to say when it's Saudi Arabia, but what if you had 'really good info' that he was hiding on in the hills of west virginia ? Does nuking suddenly seem such a great solution ? If not, why ?

At the moment there are no plans to bomb Iran. The key term is at the moment.
Iran getting nuclear weapons is unacceptable, it will destablize even further an already destablized region. By getting nuclear weapons, Iran will prompt Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkey to start nuclear weapons programs of their own. Arabs will not sit still and will want a nuclear deterrent of their own. That is not acceptable. Iranians parade their various versions of Shahab missiles and other weapons systems and on them, sometimes, there are slogans such as "Death to America" or a map of Israel on those missles.
Bush is being duped by everyone and he isn't aware of it.
There is a parallel between Neville Chamberlain and Bush. Remember, Bush went to Europe and met with Putin and came back claiming success. Holding a paper almost saying Russia is on our side. Putin, the next day signed a deal with Iran over the nuclear reactors and rods. Putin is developing Iran's nuclear fuel production, uranium enrichment. Neville went and met with Hitler and claimed success and the next day Hitler invaded his neighbors and started WW2.
Sigh.
Iran bans U.N. nuke visits on some sites
Right, peaceful purpose nuclear program. More BS from the Iranian mullah apologists. They are pursuing nukes so they could blackmail us in the future, just like Kim Il Jong.
Iran building 'nuclear storage tunnels'
What do you think they're building these tunnels that go far into the ground? To study the Quran?
They obviously don't want our bunker buster bombs to destroy their nuclear weapons. I fear that Israel is our only hope of destroying Iran's nuclear weapons program before it's too late. Some experts say that a nuclear strike is needed to destroy Iran's nuclear program. Who knows.
Diplomats say Iran building tunnels to hide nukes
There are underground tunnels in Isfahan that even the EU admits Iran is hiding some sites. The IAEA keeps saying that many sites were hidden from them. Heard of Natanz? Thats another site.

I'm against the WTO as a whole, to be honest. But, if it's a carrot that prevents Iran from developing nuclear weapons, then I suppose I'm for it.
