What? The UN Fails?

Although he's popular among the appeasement crowd and One Worlders of the Scandinavian Peninsula, UN nuclear watchdog chief Mohamed ElBaradei has failed to convince Iran to freeze its nuclear program during a brief visit to Tehran.

Isn't it apparent that no amount of talking will stop the Iranians from pursuing nuclear weapons? I would have thought that would have been completely self evident, but of course, I thought it was clear that ElBaradei was as useful to non-proliferation as teats on a boar and he won the Nobel Peace Prize (for failing to disarm Iran's nuclear weapons program). So, what do I know?

Comments:
Sorry kid, but I need to ask the hard question, not that I have an answer. What is the solution to persuading Iran that the pursuit of its neclear ambitions is a bad idea?

It's not as if that place is run by people who are not in need of medication.
 
A bombing compaign followed by special forces insertion to check the damage?
 
If the US were to attempt this unilaterally, it would mean the end of life as we know it.

If this could be accomplished by some type of broadbased coalition, it might mean the end of life as we know it but it would be better.

Of course, if the Iranians were to develope a nuclear weapon, that too could mean not only the end of life as we know it, but also potentially the end of all life on earth.
