After the 2002 surprise revelation of Iran's underground uranium enrichment and nuclear enterprise, the United Nations and other organizations have fought to uncover the extent of the regime's progress towards a complete fuel cycle. Minor diplomatic successes in 2003 abated Iran's program for a few years until Mahmoud Ahmadinejad reinvigorated his nation's drive towards self-sustaining nuclear energy independence. Time is running out as global agencies continue to shorten the estimate when the Islamic Republic of Iran will have the capability to produce nuclear weapons. Short of using military force to disable Iran's program, the global community must undertake a universally supported and implemented plan to bring the regime's leadership to the negotiating table. By utilizing a strategic communication plan built on the interests, concerns, fears, and desires of the international community and Iran's leadership, the United States can revive the significance of the uranium enrichment situation and bring the world's leaders under one plan to exert the maximum diplomatic and economic pressure on Iran and halt its march towards becoming a nuclear weapon-state. | Strangling Iran's Nuclear Agenda by Kyle Allen Benwitz, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
