What they're claiming for, what it seems like they're seeking is some kind of quiet exit strategy from something that I think that the reason we're here is because of the lack of planning.
that has gotten us here in the first place.
I think we all have concerns about Iran's nuclear program because I do think we are dealing with a nation that had they gained access to a nuclear weapon would have no problem in using it.
So I think there was a bipartisan consensus for how that Iran should not have a nuclear weapon and that there needed to be not just a bipartisan consensus, but there was an international consensus about our ability to be able to prevent them from doing that.
That's why the negotiations were so important.
That's why being able to actually come up with a nuclear deal became so important.
You would have kept negotiating that.
I think until someone could tell me, until intelligence told me that we are now hitting a point that we have an imminent threat on our hands and all forms of negotiation had hit a brick wall, then that's the moment.
Like I said, when we talk about how military force should be the last resort,
That's when I think military force is something that you then tend to look at.
But I don't think there's anybody who is arguing that we were at that point.
Well, I also think the president needs to understand that if you're dealing with the imminent threat through warfare, then.
whether or not the president of the United States is the one to make a final authorization is one thing, but then you still need to notify Congress and that people still need to have an understanding as to what is going on.
That the president of the United States has not just the moral, but the legal authority to protect the homeland.
We understand that and we agree with that.
But if you can't argue that there was an eminent threat that required you to put the country at war...
then that's where this gets very difficult and very murky.
And frankly, I think it's indefensible.
Well, I think nothing changed.
I think what happened was we've just continued what has been historic progress.
