And what makes you think that.
You think we are all idiots this side of the Atlantic.
If Iran became nuclear capable, and did decide to attack Israel, Israel would wipe Iran of the Map, and if the Iranian leadership was as mad as some on this site say.
Do you think Iran would stop at Israel, they would turn the whole of the Middle East into a nuclear conflagration, wipe out the oil which would cause the collapse of the worlds economy, Europe would collapse into anarchy as would Japan and to a certain extent America it depends if you could meet all your projected energy needs.
It has nothing to do with good press bad press, but more of safe guarding our energy supplies.
What is the current American governments view
The United States is repeating its position that the best way to resolve the stand-off with Iran over its nuclear program is through the United Nations. A top U.S. official made his comments in response to questions about whether Washington would negotiate with Tehran directly.
White House National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley says the United States has been supportive of European efforts to negotiate with Iran. He told CNN's Late Edition, Washington's position has not changed.
"The Europeans made a proposal to Iran, a year and a half ago, and we indicated clearly we were going to facilitate that proposal," said Stephen Hadley. "So, the forum has now shifted to a discussion in the U.N. Security Council, where the international community, as a whole, of which the United States is a part, can make clear to Iran what it needs to do."
So it looks as if your government is backing the EU.
Two years ago the US gave the EU the lead on Iran, deferring to its preferred policies. It did so in an attempt to restore NATO unity, thinking it would be crucial longer term in dealing with this stuff. The EU took that as the victory, instead of as the task. The US basically said "fine, show me, take care of this one your way". Not because we thought it would work but because we know it doesn't, and that the EU has yet to admit that to themselves.
So, two years on, with the US doing everything the EU asked of it, the IAEA finishes its absurd series of hoop jumping exercises and refers the matter to the UN security council. Whereupon the EU notices action might be in the offing, and feels the cold draft of numbing fear. And reiterates its pleas to Iran to please please please for the love of God accept our tribute and don't hurt us. Which Iran laughs at, all the way to the oil-premium bank. They don't beg for what they can simply take.
Is the result of the experience new found unity within NATO? No it is not. The Russians support Iran as they always have. The EU is willing to talk forever and do anything everyone on earth already agrees on. But Russia doesn't agree, so that means they aren't willing to do anything. Thus they can't afford to have an actual security council vote, and have kicked it off another couple months. To beg the Iranians some more to please let them go.
The Americans set the whole thing up to force the Europeans to choose. Either you stand with the US against nuclear proliferation, or you let proliferation happen. There is no other position. Iran won't give you one, Russia won't give you one, you can't buy it because it won't stay bought and the oil producers can take more themselves, without asking.
Eventually the EU will decide to vote for trivial sanctions and the Russians will veto them. Then the EU will impose a few mild travel bans and issue a few more sternly worded leading editorials. But will refuse to ever cross Russia, take any meaningful non-military action, to side with the US, or to act themselves.
Privately they may hope the US goes it alone again and takes care of it - but political weakness here will prevent that, whether they realize it or not. Privately they may hope Israel will take care of it and take all the resulting heat. It is hardly likely, and if tried will not be remotely sufficient.
So Iran will get nuclear weapons and the world will simply watch.
