isis would share your view. we've been incredibly hard on terror from wherever it comes whether it's the shia, whether it's the sunnis or anyone else engaged in terror around the world. our objective is to protect american interests and we will protect them no matter who it is perpetrated and whether they come from a religion, no religion and the should i as or the sunnis. >> are the russians helpful on iran? >> they've not been to date. >> do you think they can be? >> i always live in hope, chuck. it is my mission, and it is my task to convince the russians, too, that you're firing rockets from yemen into major gulf states and arming lebanese hezbollah, and all of these activities. these aren't in russia's best interest either and just come to america and poke us in the eye is not a foreign policy objective. that's being a nuisance and what i hope they do is we take what matters to each of our two peoples.
