00:00Well, Kristen, that's ultimately going to be the president's decision.
00:02But what we've said to the Iranians is we do not want war with Iran.
00:06We actually want peace.
00:07But we want peace in the context of them not having a nuclear weapons program.
00:12And that's no, Kristen, we're not at war with Iran.
00:14We're at war with Iran's nuclear program.
00:17And let me just say, Kristen, that we're incredibly grateful and proud of the American Air Force pilots who did
00:23an incredible job last night.
00:25The operation was really extraordinary.
00:28What we did is we destroyed the Iranian nuclear program.
00:32I think we set that program back substantially.
00:34And we did it without endangering the lives of the American pilots.
00:37That's an incredible thing.
00:39And I think we all should be proud, whatever our politics, we should be proud of what these guys accomplished.
00:45A very, very high-impact mission under a lot of pressure.
00:49Well, Kristen, I'm not going to get into sensitive intelligence about what we've seen on the ground there in Iran.
00:54But we've seen a lot, and I feel very confident that we have substantially delayed their development of a nuclear
00:59weapon.
01:00And that was the goal of this attack.
01:02That's why it was a success.
01:03And, of course, what happens next, again, Kristen, is up to the Iranians.
01:08Thank you very much.
01:08Thank you.
