Re: WHAT SHOULD BE DONE? (none / 0)
Your question boils down to "how did we get where we are?" So see the last fifty years of world history.

Why haven't they settled the Iranian dispute in the last three years, if they are so much smarter and more moral and productive than those stupid, counterproductve, immoral Americans?

Do you have any suggestions how I could possibly answer that question while ignoring US policy? Please? I'm not allowed mention Iraq. I'm not allowed to mention US belligerence against Iran. I'm not allowed mention threats from Israel. I'm not allowed mention the effects of US-led polities on internal Iranian politics. I don't have a whole lot to work with.
