The US should institute a voluntary, non-legally binding, confidence shattering measure called bunker buster JDAMs.

"a voluntary, non-legally binding, confidence-building measure." In a related note, Kim Jong Il congradulated Iran for pulling the wool over the UN's eyes just like HE did during the Clintoon administration. No mullahs were required to dance with UN officials either.

You are absolutely correct. The entire UN/IAEA enterprise needs to be put out of business, permanently. This could go on for several years, Iran fooling the UN/IAEA until they're *ready* to destroy someone with nuclear weaponry. All while the UN/IAEA stand around and builds everyone's confidence, blahblahblah...

This could go on for years? Hmmmm, not as far as Israel is concerned. Israel won't put up with the world's BS. They will allow a bit more "foolery" to go on for the "sucking up to the devil for peace" crowd, but before their necks let the noose tighten much more, they will move. In my opinion, they have to. Just like with Iraq years ago. Better to take some hate mail from the world, than to see the Final Solution come to pass.

The U.N. is dead...
It has fallen under control of certifiable a$$holes, with no interest in anything but their own corrupt agenda..
Preemptive attacks against Iranian facilities should IMMEDIATLY follow the FIRST provocation or evidence of non-compliance with this "voluntary, non-legally binding, confidence building measure"....
That would be our "unbiased, non-agressive response to perceived threat -- without discrimination or rancor".....
Semper Fi
