O’Brien had this to say on how why the US needs to respond to Iran in a strong way:

“You can run but you can’t hide. This isn’t just about Israel, America has also been attacked here…This is an open and shut case. We’ve got direct admissions from both Hamas and Iran. They’re not concerned about us… Weakness is provocative.”
