It depends. I do not trust the present regime to put together a
coalition in the UN. They've pissed too many people off.
As for aerial asaults, Haretz (spelling) reported that the Israeli
government just purchased over 500 bunker buster type bombs.
Interestingly enough the sale does not go through until after the
November election.
Force should be an absolute last resort. Start with still economic
sanctions coupled with a naval and land blockade to ensure that
nothing get through. Couple that with freezing of all assets including
those in the Swiss or Caymen Island bank accounts that the mullahs
have been stashing their bribes for years. Nothing goes in and nothing
goes out. Then let all the Iranian people know in detailed terms how
the sanctions can be lifted.
