according to leaked cables some middle eastern countries actually encouraged us to bomb Iran. Otherwise I agree that a non-military solution is at least initially appealing.

  I fear whoever unleashed this has opened a pandora's box of destructive malware.  We've already seen things like China hacking major corporations and manipulating it's currency.  It's not hard to picture a future where malware is used to hurt the competition's production, at either a corporate or state level.

From the perspective of just about every other country in the region there is a hell of a lot of difference between Israel bombing Iran and the US bombing Iran.
