This is a provocative piece by a British Conservative opposing military action against Iran.
New Statesman - Why the west should rule out military action against Iran
This issue has a way to play out yet.
Among the questions still unanswered is, as was the case in Afghanistan and Iraq, if there is a decision to launch attacks on Iran, then what comes next? Is the military operation a series of coordinated strikes against Iran's military/scientific infrastructure or is it a wider regime change campaign against the Islamic Republic's power structure? All of these questions are unanswered as yet by proponents of military action. After Afghanistan and especially Iraq, perhaps some serious thinking and planning is required.
Right now, the prudent realist on this issue is ... President Obama.
