Analysis Summary
Confirmation appeal

Transcript
I do want to be recorded for history's purposes before I know what what was going to happen in regards to this if it goes through. Iran will immediately use the money that it's receiving in sanctions relief to begin to build up its conventional capabilities. And then at some point in the near future, when the time is right, they will build a nuclear weapon. And they will do so because at that point they will know that they have become immune that we will no longer be able to strike their nuclear program because the price of doing so will be too high. This is not just a work of imagination. It exists in the world today. It's called North Korea, where a lunatic possesses dozens of nuclear weapons and a long-range rocket that can already reach the United States, and we cannot do anything about it. An attack on North Korea today would result in an attack on Tokyo or Seoul or Guam or Hawaii or California. And so, the world must now live with a lunatic in possession of a nuclear we of nuclear weapons. And this is the goal Iran has as well, to reach a point where they become immune to any sort of credible military threat because the price of a military strike would be too high. Isn't that wild? Because we could have shown you that video and said that that is what Rubio said yesterday in explaining why we did it. But 11 years ago, he was explaining that there is a threshold you get to. You you attack countries when they're weaker. Had we waited until they had a nuke, the price becomes way too high. We don't know what they're going to do with that nuke. We don't know if they're going to put it on a missile. We don't know if they're going to allow it to create a dirty bomb that can get into our country and everything else. That was 11 years ago.
