Putting presure on Iran is prehaps one of the most important tasks the western world can do... Iran is a crumbling state - there is a "decade of opportunity" in the next 10 years or so, since this when the young people still have hope of change - if we fail them by making deals with their "rulers" or letting the mullahs get "unlimited" military power, then we would have lost prehaps one of the best ways to end the mullah dictatorship... making the mullahs weak, so people will revolt.

I think its good that the US continues with putting presure on Iran... having dialog with fundamentalists is a myth.
