Watch the exchange between former Secretaries of State James Baker and Hillary Clinton:
[Baker] At the end of the day. if we do get it done the way the administration is working on it now, which we totally agree with, we ought to take em out
[Laugh]…. We are working hard.
All options are on the table. ….
[Clinton] And then, frankly, there are those who are saying, “The best thing that could happen to us is be attacked by somebody. Just bring it on because that would unify us. It would legitimize the regime.”
[The regime] doesn’t represent the will of the people. It’s kind of morphed into kind of a military theocracy. And, therefore, an argument is made constantly on the hard-line side of the Iranian government that, you know, “We’re not going to give anything up. And in fact we’re going to provoke an attack because then we will be in power for as long as anyone can imagine.”
