Hillary Clinton: America Could Totally Obliterate Iran

Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has launched a stinging attack on Iran, saying that America could “totally obliterate” the country if it launched a nuclear strike against Israel.

Clinton’s comments, made in an interview with ABC’s Good Morning America, come on the day her campaign to be America’s first female President could come to an end.

Clinton must beat fellow democrat Barack Obama in a crucial vote in Pennsylvania to keep her bid to be the parties candidate for Presidency alive.

"I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran (if it attacks Israel)," she said in the interview this morning (April 22nd).

"In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them,"

"That's a terrible thing to say but those people who run Iran need to understand that because that perhaps will deter them from doing something that would be reckless, foolish and tragic," she said.

Clinton’s comments are far more intense than previous references she has made to Iran during her Presidential campaign.

They are likely to anger anti-Clinton campaigners, such as Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters, who voiced his distaste for the senator and her intentions with Iran earlier this month.
