It would not make sense or be wise to take on Iran directly such as in some lame @ss ground war. It would destabilize the Middle-east too much, be extremely expensive, and very costly in terms of lives. A larger and growing number of the people of Iran want a more free country, as demonstrations have increased, although violent over the last what year or so.
However Iran cannot be allowed to produce nuclear energy for ANY reason. I have documented this a couple times in articles last year including the one(s) below. There are other ways to destabilize Iran's government.
A last resort could include taking out military, communications and industrial targets including the nuclear plants. Part of the challenge is the location of these facilities is deep underground and not easy to get to. Iran built them this way deliberately to make them harder to attack, learning from the Israeli 1981 bombing on Iraq's nuclear facility, and the 2007 bombing in Syria, both with no UN approval.

There has been discussion of exploding a nuclear device in the air over the sites creating an EMP - Electromagnetic Pulse, rendering anything with an electronic signature, microchip, etc, useless. There is concern that Iran could do the same to the U.S. which could cripple the U.S. economy worst than we experienced in 2008. 04-29-2005 "Iran military journal eyes nuclear EMP attack on U.S. High-altitude missile detonation could be launched from ship, warn top scientists" http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTI... 07-07-2008.
It depends mostly on how American politics view Iran and developments over there. Apart from the religious fundamentalism,etc. the regulation of development, hence ownership of Nukes/Military technologies should have a "real" democratic process and not be influenced by G10 or such lopsided SELL side of Military Hardware groups- who historically tend towards planned exploitation of developing societies with policies and systems developed and finely orchestrated by their mature intelligence with complex (not obvious) control mechanisms/frameworks.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
