Don,

"Why not approach their leaders and suggest the following: "Dismantle your expensive enrichment program and build your power stations and the US, the UK, and Russia will supply you free of charge all the fuel you need to operate them".

If they did not accept this, then suspicions about their real intentions would be more credible. If they did, problem solved, and the cost would be a lot less than the cost of military action."


THAT WAS WHAT THE RUSSIANS OFFFERED. The iranians refused the deal, insisting on their OWN enrichment.
