Not yet. The military option should be a last resort, and our path forward needs to be clear to the world before we take that drastic route.
An attack on Iran may be the only way to guarantee US security, though. Hopefully our intelligence services are digging deep into the intentions of President Ahmadinejad and Supreme Leader Khamenei. There are three keys to a US decision to take military action against Iran:
1) They have a WMD that they could use against the US
2) They intend to do so
3) They have the capability to deliver that WMD
Since they've announced they intend to complete #1, and there are plenty of ways to accomplish #3, #2 is the critical point, and intelligence - HUMINT or SIGINT - is the only way to get that.
Don't forget that Israel is even more at risk than the US, and has already demonstrated (against Iraq) a capability to conduct a surgical strike to eliminate #1. If that happens, we may be able to get out of this without the use of US military assets.

NO! my grandfather a WWII vet's opinion of the middle east. he said need to build a fence around that area and let them all kill each other.
The conflict in the middle east has been going on for centuries. the US has no right to be the world police. how arrogant we be?
what about North Korea? now they have nukes. do you think we need to invade Korea? is there oil for us to make money there?
Talk about "putting a end" to any other nation is not conducive to Peace, no matter how savage the people are.

No. We need to keep our nose out of Iran for now. And by the way, if they were to try and send a missle our way, it would no doubt be distroyed long before it got on our shores. Then we would no doubt nuke them and all it would take is a couple of well placed A Bombs to wipe out most of the country and most of the population there. And I don't see them invading by boat or air. They are not that modern as of yet.

I don't understand how Usa can set up the Iranian gov. I was born in Iran and where was the Us when the King needed their help from Hezbollah? Iran was once great like Europe. No instead it helped the 1979 revolution.

hell no, I am tired of fighting. If they nuke us, then I have a GOOD reason to fight. Fighting in iraq is pointless as fighting in Iran. Take a look at our own country before worrying about other countries, our economy is screwing up and billions of dollars and many lives are vanishing.

seems like, the way we've been acting, we're gonna have to wait til they nuke us first. the bad thing about that is, there would be chaos here. can you imagine all the Muslims in Michigan, if that happened? i wouldn't wanna be them. i don't know if we're progressive enough to differentiate between them and the others. i pray for them that we are.
this is a scenario that makes my blood run cold. .

no. why would they want to nuke us so bad instead of israel? they're much more conveniently located. why wouldn't you obliterate your worst enemy instead of taking a potshot at the bully who will just come back and cream you?
