Military strikes won't stop Iran — they'll blow up any chance of a deal. Every bomb dropped pushes Iran closer to withdrawing from the NPT and oil prices toward $200 a barrel. The U.S. keeps proving it only knows how to use force, and that's exactly why no agreement will ever get done this way.
The U.S. has never held this much leverage over Iran — enrichment sites destroyed, missile programs crippled, proxy networks dismantled and an economy in freefall. This is the moment to demand full dismantlement of Iran's nuclear pathways, not a weak managed freeze. Squandering this advantage would be a historic mistake.
