Until both sides can at least sit down and talk the war will go no where. Open dialog with not just Iran, but every middle eastern country. First meeting they can just shoot the shit with stuff like "So hows the weather". Move up to the more important aspects. Iran has tried to talk with the US about its nuclear ambitions even before we went shooting up Iraq. They did halt there activities for 2 years.. In that time the US ignored them so they continued. Now there at where there at today. Both sides trying to flex there mussels and intimidate each other. The US is willing to talk now but with conditions first... Stuff that should come out of a dialog and not an absolute demand before hand.
