Western Standard - Iran’s stated goal against Israel and its expanding missile threat

00:00:00.000 they'd chop off their hand. Now, there is a doctor there who takes care of them. If it's

00:00:03.820 something, if it's a capital crime, they will decapitate them right there for all of their

00:00:08.400 townspeople to see. Now, are they still doing it at the same degree as back in the years when I was

00:00:13.140 there? I don't know. But their propensity to kill in a different manner than us? Yes. But they do

00:00:19.180 not threaten the entire world with nuclear immolation. They do not say, the Saudis do not

00:00:25.700 say we want to, it is our goal to kill all Jews everywhere, all the time. It is our goal to

00:00:31.540 evaporate all of Israel and then go after North America with our missiles. Those are the key

00:00:38.580 distinctions as odious as some of the practices of the other Islamic nations that are in that area.

00:00:45.060 They are, I'll use the word carefully, much more moderate in terms of what they say they're going

00:00:49.380 to do to other nations. And that's the key distinction. Iran refused, has never backed

00:00:55.940 off of, yes, it's Jews everywhere. It's Israel gets vaporized. And by the way, with the ballistic

00:01:03.460 capacity we have, if they had something that could reach North America, they would have done it by now.
