00:00The insinuation by anyone in this room that Iran somehow has the moral high ground over the United States of
00:06America is insulting.
00:07The U.S. has been a moral leader for most of its history by fighting wars against other governments, not
00:16against civilizations.
00:18How can the president claim that America can ever have the moral high ground if he's threatening to destroy civilizations
00:25and not casting wars as fights against other governments?
00:30Andrew, I think you should take a look at the actions of this president over the course of the past
00:34six weeks
00:35and the actions of our brave men and women in our United States military
00:38who have essentially taken out the military of a rogue Islamic regime

00:53The president absolutely has the moral high ground over the Iranian terrorist regime

01:28So it was a very strong threat that led to results.
01:31And as the Secretary of War stated at the Pentagon this morning,
01:34it was not an empty threat by any means.
01:37The Pentagon had a target list that they were ready to hit go on at 8 p.m. last night
01:43if the Iranian regime had not agreed to open the strait, which they did.
01:46And I think that's something we should all be grateful for.
01:49The United States is a moral leader in the world, given that he...
01:51I was asked this exact same question by your colleague, Andrew, in the back.
01:54And I think, again, the insinuation by anyone in this room
01:57that Iran somehow has the moral high ground over the United States of America
02:01is insulting, considering the atrocities that they have...
02:05Considering the atrocities that they have committed
02:07against our people and our military over the past five decades.
02:11And I think, again, the insinuation by the U.S.
