“It will have to be diplomats, not F15s that stop the mullahs,”

More like B-2 Spirits carrying B-61-11 bombs.

Okay, let's remember that the job of a diplomat, really, is to avoid war not by never ending talks, but by convincing our adversaries that doing what we want them to do is better than not doing what we want them to do.

This should be very easy for our diplomats. Do what we tell you, or your country ceases to exist. Now, do you agree to our terms?

I would guess that in the case of Iran, our diplomats would come back to the President and say "Looks like we have to bomb them, Sir."

That is their job.

Somehow, our diplomats have forgotten that their job is to advance the goals of our country, not simply to avoid war at all costs.
