In fact I'd go further. I'd tell Iran that if there was any nuclear terrorist incident anywhere in the world, against anybody, we'd assume they did it and nuke the whole country flat. If it turned out to be somebody else, we'd apologize after nuking them, but of course the mullahs would all be dead by then. Giving up nukes (verified by US inspectors from now on) would be the only way to escape this threat, given Iran's history of terrorism and untrustworthiness.
