1. When you can't take 'Yes' for an answer...

You really have to wonder what the problem really is. So, Brazil and Turkey made a deal with Iran obviating the need for any further sanctions or even discussion of sanctions. And the US and some in Western Europe deplore the fact that their ultimatums, which have proved so hollow, are now unnecessary. And they think Russia will now go along with sanctions? I don't know what these 'diplomats' are smokling but I wish I had some.
2. Don't be pessimist. Think broad

Ppl in Israel says that Iran is in stone-age. Now, when they do something advance, there is cry in Israel. Come on ppl, think about the positive side. If such nuclear reactors and science gets started in Iran, more and more Iranians will become educated and wise. It will employ more than 5000 to indirectly 50,000 or more. These learned people will stop any non-sense gov't moves or any stupid war or fight between nation. There will be new rise of learnt people in the country, giving them chance to be well integrated. If you still think negetive, then you are pessimist and nothing can be done. And a war will be upon yourself
3. Will economic pressure change Iran’s behavior?
Ron B. ,   Lod   (05.18.10)
Ahmadinejad strategic challenge and nuclear ambitions has run Iran’s economy into the ground. On Oct. 11, just a day after Ahmadinejad declared prices in decline, the Central Bank reported inflation above 30%. Such figures are still likely low. Both Shahab News and Aftab-e Yazd have noted the tendency of Iranian officials to pull numbers from thin air. More about the economic situation of Iran : http://xrl.us/oudaw

Cynthia ,   USA   (05.18.10)
You're so blinded by your anti-Israel sentiment that you don't see Iran as a threat. And just because Ahmadinejad invites his two best trade partners for a back slapping session, you believe Iran is no longer a global threat and sanctions are unnecessary. Fortunately not everyone is gullible like you.
5. Military option obviously still on the table

West to continue working on sanctions THE FARCE GOES ON !!!. Don’t get excited by deal Iran merely seeking to delay sanctions, will never agree to enrich uranium abroad Ronen Bergman Published: 05.18.10, 00:46 / Israel Opinion Ongoing Iranian ritual Every time Iran feels that it’s approaching the point of no return in respect to Security Council or European Union decisions on sanctions, it comes up with a “new initiative” and announces that it will in fact accept the international community’s conditions. Yet when it actually needs to sign an agreement, it presents new conditions and thwarts the talks, and so on and so forth. NOW THE MASTERPLAYER IRAN HAS CHINA ON HER SIDE - China says welcomes Iran nuclear fuel swap deal Published: 05.18.10, 08:48 / Israel News China has welcomed a nuclear fuel swap plan that Iran announced after talks with Brazil and Turkey, urging negotiations over the deepening dispute with Tehran. "China expresses its welcome (of the fuel swap plan)", Yang said late on Monday while visiting Tunisia, Xinhua news agency said. "China has noted the relevant reports and expresses its welcome and appreciation for the diplomatic efforts made by the parties involved to seek an appropriate solution to the Iran nuclear issue." (AP) NOW A SHOW TO TWART THE DEAL WILL COME - THIS TIME TOGHETER WITH CHINA ON IRANS SIDE. WHEN WILL ISRAEL AND THE WORLD UNDERSTAND, THAT THIS , CHAMBERLAINING-CLINTON - JERKS, WITH ASOSSIATES, WILL END UP IN THE SAME SITUATION AS IN THE CASE OF NORTH-KOREA, IF A MILITARY STRIKE AGAINST IRAN DOES NOT STOP IRAN. THE US HAS ALREADY LOST EAST- ASIA, BUT HAS IGNORANTLY NOT UNDERSTOOD TAHT. THE US IS A LOOSER- AND ALL FOLLOWING THE US-OBAMA-CLINTON-CHAMBERLAINING-POLICY, ALSO. WHEN WILL ISRAEL WAKE UP, TO THE URGENT CALL OF A MILITARY STRIKE TO STOP IRAN ???. Arn.

11. For Cynthia # 4

What is your problem, Cynthia? You want war? Why? Do you stay up nights looking under the bed for the boogeyman? Any transfer will be performed under the auspices of the IAEA which will be notified of all details. The US says it doesn't like the deal. Why? Because it doesn't have the US and its fellow travelers promoting sanctions as the ultimate arbiters of the deal? Because it removes any incentive for further sanctions? Or because the US can no longer use Iran as an example of a 'rogue' state and may have to look at Israel as the new example?
