Israel to Obama - hold Iran's feet to fire

Sending George Mitchell as an envoy was a great first step, but it will take a lot of work to bring peace to the Middle East. With Iran having up to 3000 subterfuges currently producing uranium, the conflict is destined to escalate unless there is some sort of agreement or concession on the part of Israel, Iran, and the United States. Putting tough economic sanctions on Iran probably would be a good way to force cooperation considering that they are losing a ton of money with the current price of petroleum at only $40 a gallon. But depending on if Iran has enough uranium already, this might give Iran enough time to set its nuclear program in place.
