Iran Requires Diplomacy First

War is a serious means toward serious ends, as Carl von Clausewitz observed almost 200 years ago. Countries that have suffered it first-hand know better than many its painful effects on subsequent generations. It is, after all, the human endeavor most associated with unintended consequences. To advocate military action out of sequence with other efforts, even if those efforts? odds of succeeding are very long, is to ask a lot not only of the countries that are supposed to support it, but, more importantly, of the men and women who must wage it.
