"As I've said many times, this country is not respected. We're laughed at, we're mocked; we're like the big bully that's no good, that's weak, but the fact is we're no longer respected. With Iran, something is going to have to happen." 2

"They're absolutely making nuclear weapons, and what they're doing is they're killing people in the street, and those people are fans of the United States. Iranians love the United States, at least the people from Iran, not the leaders. The leaders don't; they have no respect for the United States." 3

"What we should do is when they start shooting the people in the streets as they start to protest, we ought to let them know, you hurt those people, we're coming after you. And if you say that it'll be amazing how many lives we're going to save because they don't want us coming after them. They're too smart for that." 4
