Marco Rubio explains "why did the United States have to attack Iran now?"
"We were on the verge of an Iran that had so many missiles and so many drones that no one could do anything about their nuclear weapons program in the future. That was an intolerable risk."
"This was our last best chance to eliminate that conventional threat, that conventional shield that they were trying to build."
"Under no circumstances can a country run by radical Shia clerics with an apocalyptic vision of the future ever possess nuclear weapons. And under no circumstances can they be allowed to hide and protect that program behind a shield of missiles and drones that no one can do anything about."
