series of things we would do before we would hit that point. but i've made it very, very clear and made it repeatedly clear when a theocracy that has the same kind of vir ru lent jihadist ideology that the iranian government has that is similar almost identical except shiite versus sunni to al qaeda is in control of a nuclear weapon, the world is a fundamentally different place, a world the united states cannot let happen if we have the opportunity to stop it from happening. some have suggested by taking strikes, again if that is absolutely necessary, to stop them from getting a nuclear weapon will start a war. i disagree. it will stop a horrible war that will happen when iran will be funding terrorist organizations and other groups that will be waging jihad around the world and particularly here in the homeland of this country. so this is not a -- this is not something that i take lightly.
