Not diplomats, democrats. They think talking is "doing" something. When PIAPS was the first pig, one of her favorite meaningless phrases was "the situation is being closely monitored".

On the contrary, the State Dept. pukes were exactly the same in Pub administrations. Reagan had the balls to stand up to them. GHWB and GWB all to often (with the exception of the first couple years after 9-11) deferred to them. G.W. Bush did nothing about Iran either. He ran out the clock and passed it on to Obama.
