How about the Pinochet option?

So, Iran's President is planning on attending the World Cup in Germany if his team gets that far. Great. How about the US requests his extradition for kidnapping and imprisoning diplomats as one of the Iranian hostage-takers of 1979? If they can hold Pinochet for violating anti-torture treaties, surely there's some kind of international agreement against kidnapping diplomats.

Or how about we just test one of our new 747 based laser anti-missile systems somewhere along his flight path and then apologize for our aim afterwards?
