Trump: Iran PR is better than fighting, I never said they can have nuclear weapons

BlockBeats News, April 12th, during an interview with FOX News, Trump said that if Iran had nuclear weapons, they would use them against Israel and the Middle East. They attacked five countries—these countries were originally somewhat neutral. They launched about 1800 missiles at the UAE, many at Saudi Arabia, many at Qatar, many at Bahrain, they've gone crazy. In fact, this is to our advantage because those countries quickly sided with us.

I think if Iran has nuclear weapons, they will use them, starting with Israel. A nuclear bomb would cause unprecedented damage. They don't need more, one is enough. Then they will attack the Middle East and eventually come to the United States. We will not allow it; we have very good allies over there, look at our relationship with Israel. Netanyahu has said that we have a big brother and little brother relationship, and we basically destroyed Iran in just a few days.

Iran's public relations are very good, much better than going to war—they say: "President Trump said we can have nuclear weapons." I have never spoken to them, by the way, and that is something I would never say to them, and they know it.
