Which side should the US come in on, the allies or the Axis?   Hitler and Mussolini are strong leaders good men.  All Adolf is doing is getting rid of immigrants and Jews, putting Germany first and ensuring strong borders.  There are good people on both sides of the debate there.   And Churchill doesn't have the cards. We could easily swoop in and hit them with some big bombs and then say peace is on them.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

If we had a savvier administration/diplomatic gamers, I would say maybe the back channels is actually the US/Iran agreeing to allow them to move the uranium to a different facility for whatever reason, while bombing the key sites to prove a point, show force and control to the world, and set the tone for a new calmer relationship in reaction to the strikes.  But we don't have that sort of thing and everything that has come out after surely wouldn't remotely hint at that.

On a different point, I haven't found an intelligent POV on it, so I don't have any basis or thought out arguments for or against, but one thing I thought about while explaining everything thats occurred to my wife is...say there is no evidence or whatnot that Iran is building a nuke or is progressing in that direction.  But they are insistent and unyielding about enriched uranium production, to the detriment of negotiations and feelings of peace.  Is there an angle of concern that a third party, whether other Iran-funded groups, another nation, etc.. and Iran would be supplying them with enriched uranium, funding, resources/know how, etc...  Its not a far out conspiracy theory given how Iran has had other parties do their dirty work for years giving plausible deniability and distance from actual violence and warfare.

It could be totally fantastical and a Jack Reacher plot point more than realistic scenario, but just something I thought about.  And again, the current administration isn't given any indication or positioning that makes it seem like such a surreptitious situation is being proactively approached.
