Air strikes could CERTAINLY impair Iran's ability to produce nuclear armamants. Just because they COULD rebuild doesn't mean that they have the resources or even the political will to do so.
However, there is indeed little direct evidence linking Iran to nuclear weapon production. Yet, there is plenty of indirect evidence suggesting that they may be building nukes. Now, if you have millions of lives hanging in the balance of your sworn enemy's rationalizations, how do you justify NOT taking action?

Sadam Hussein's words come back to haunt us now. In paraphrase,
I lead everyone to believe Iraq had WMD's to stave off the Iranians. If Iran is doing the same thing, they should have learned a lesson.
