Since Bush has let the EU and UN do what they wanted ( and has stated that diplomacy was the path he was taking) I disagree with your charectorization.

Bush has goaded Iran through threats and his crony's suggestions of imminent invasion--that's not a diplomatic approach. He has directed maneuvers to take place in a threatening manner near Iran. That isn't diplomatic, or letting someone else take care of it.

You can disagree with my characterization all you want--I disagree with your view of the world and methods of arguing important issues--your approach is so flawed I'm frankly concerned that you're in a position of responsibility to be teaching others. If I had a child in your class I'd have him transferred out. When it comes to public discourse, you seem to feel it unnecessary to bother to think for yourself when you can cut and paste, assassinate characters, and throw straw men into the arena as a distraction from the subject at hand.

I generally avoid threads where you're active, and I will remove myself from this one. Your methods are calculated to infuriate, not inform.
