I think there is no chance it will happen during this hostage crisis.

With all due respect part of the problem is viewing them as hostages and trying to negotiate a resolution. Iran is a terrorist state. War has been declared on terrorism. They should be viewed as POW's. Wars have continued to be fought eventhough there are POW's. The Allies would never have won WWII if they considered POW's as hostages and tried to negotiate with the Axis forces.

This isn't the same as world war two, and while I agree with you that iran needs to be dealt with eventually by force, I'm just saying, it will not happen this friday at very least.
