Unexpected: El Baradei Hints At Use Of Force Against Iran

I hope he's not planning his own personal unilateral strike:

Diplomacy is not just talking. Diplomacy has to be backed by pressure and, in extreme cases, by force. We have rules. We have to do everything possible to uphold the rules through conviction. If not, then you impose them. Of course, this has to be the last resort, but sometimes you have to do it.

Publius says he has mixed feelings about this. While no one should be thrilled about entering a third war in five years, I no longer think there is any option but force. Iran's President is a religious millenialist maniac, who views the detonation of a nuclear weapon as a trumpet calling his Mahdi to earth.

War is horrible, but more horrible still is a bomb in the hands of a man who believes that God Himself has put him on earth to nuke the cities of the infidels.
