THE conventional wisdom says that we have two choices in confronting
and containing Iranian nuclear ambitions - United Na tions sanctions
and diplomacy, or a military strike to knock out key nuclear sites. But
neither option is a good one. U.N. sanctions are relatively tame and
don't go to the heart of how to cripple the Iranian theocracy. A
military strike, meanwhile, would solve the regime's major problem: how
to gin up popular support and stay in power. Any attack risks causing
nationalism in Iran to soar, rallying the public around a now-unpopular
government.

Several conflicts of various intensities are raging in the Middle East.
But a bigger war, involving more states -- Israel, Lebanon, Syria,
Iran, the Palestinian Authority and perhaps the United States and
others -- is growing more likely every day, beckoned by the sense that
America and Israel are in retreat and that radical Islam is ascending.

Does Iran know how sensitive the current circumstances in the region
are? Does it know that the scenario of what happened in Iraq during the
era of the deposed, executed President Saddam Hussein is about to be
repeated on the "noble" Iranian people, thanks to the policy of
Ahmadinejad, who is "undiplomatically motivated"!

The argument for negotiating with Tehran's mullahs rests upon several flawed presumptions:
1. Iran's regime is stable and the Iran's rulers have sufficient power to suppress opposition.
2. The West is willing to offer to Iran something that Iran wants.
3. Iran's ayatollahs are willing to compromise their ideological aspirations.
4. Tehran's commitment and pledge can be trusted.

Norman Podhoretz, Editor-at-Large of Commentary Magazine, published an
essay in the June 2007 issue of Commentary Magazine and republished it
in the Wall Street Journal on May 30, 2007 ("The Case for Bombing
Iran"), in which he declared his fervent prayer that President George
W. Bush would choose to bomb Iran in order to remove the threat of
nuclear war instigated by Iran against Israel and the West.

Iran is doing more these days than just ignoring global concerns over
its nuclear program. The Islamic Republic is increasingly taunting the
international community, making clear that it has no intention of
abandoning its program and almost daring Western nations to stop it.
The situation raises serious questions and opportunities for Europe,
which is increasingly threatened by Iran. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
has warned Europe not to take Israel's side in any dispute between
Tehran and Tel Aviv. Meanwhile, Tehran and its terrorist client
Hezbollah continue to recruit and train thousands of suicide bombers
for possible attacks on the Continent.

In late February, just days after the expiration of yet another United
Nations deadline, and with the UN Security Council gearing up to
deliberate new punitive measures, Iran's firebrand president issued a
defiant public statement. The Iranian nuclear program "is without
brakes and a rear gear," Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told religious leaders in
Tehran in comments carried nationwide by state radio. "We dismantled
the rear gear and brakes of the train and threw them away some time
ago."

Since the theocratic regime of Ayatollah Khomeini seized power in 1979,
and under Khomeini's successors, Iran has consistently out-maneuvered
the United States and our allies through a crafty combination of
diplomatic manipulation; exploitation of commercial considerations;
support for terrorists and kidnappers; the use of proxy agents in Iraq,
Lebanon and elsewhere; and, in recent years, playing the nuclear card.
Earlier this year, we were relieved to see the 15 British sailors and
marines return home from their captivity in Iran unharmed. But it is
shocking and galling that Iran managed to win a propaganda victory over
the West through a brazen act of piracy on the high seas and clear
violations of the Geneva Conventions' rules on the treatment of
prisoners.
