00:00U.S. President Donald Trump briefly lays out his case for a possible attack on Iran in his
00:05State of the Union speech to Congress. He says he will not allow the world's biggest sponsor
00:09of terrorism to have a nuclear weapon. Trump also points to Tehran's support for militant groups,
00:15its killing of protesters, and the country's missile and nuclear programs as threats to the
00:19region and the United States. For decades, it had been the policy of the United States never
00:24to allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon, many decades. Since they seized control of that proud
00:32nation 47 years ago, the regime and its murderous proxies have spread nothing but terrorism and death and hate.
00:40Meantime, Iran says its nuclear research is for civilian energy production only.
00:45Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Ismail Baghey says claims about Iran's nuclear program,
00:50intercontinental ballistic missiles, and the reported death toll in the January unrest were
00:55false and merely repeated what he described as big lies.
