El Opinador Compulsivo

Ted Galen Carpenter y Justin Logan de Cato sostienen que EEUU debe ofrecer una zanahoria diplomática considerable a Irán para lograr una solución negociada.

Estoy de acuerdo en que vale la pena agotar ese canal antes de pasar a una opción militar, pero me pregunto si todavía hay esperanzas. Justo hoy se conocen nuevas declaraciones del presidente de Irán que pide que Israel abandone su territorio:

At bottom, the United States has one prevailing interest in Iran: stopping it from getting nuclear weapons. Although the Bush administration believes the Iranians are not negotiating in good faith, there is a straightforward way to find out: offer them a grand bargain that gives them what they want in exchange for giving up a capability to build nukes.

The United States should offer Iran full normalization of relations, including a public promise not to attack it, restored diplomatic relations, and normalized economic relations. In return, Iran would need to give up any prospect of building a nuclear arsenal. Iran would be required to immediately open its existing nuclear program to unfettered international inspections.
