John mccain: meet and greet 12/11/07

John McCain Town Hall Meeting Inman, SC 12/11/07 TRANSCRIPT: MCCAIN: " I think that North Korea is a threat in that they are building weapons of mass-, nuclear weapons, and I'm a little skeptical about this latest agreement, we'll have to see how it plays out. We made another agreement with them under President Clinton in 1994, and it turned out to be a sham because we didn't do what Ronald Reagan always used to say, trust but verify. We trusted but didn't verify. Uh, Iran, my friends, this latest National Intelligence Estimate that they have stopped the weaponization, they're still moving forward with quote enrichment of uranium which is a major component, there's two components, one is the enrichment, the other is the weaponization. Enrichment takes a long time, weaponization takes a short time. They could have taken a deal which would have had the Russians oversee them. But fundamentally, what I see from Iran today is that they are still announcing their dedication to the destruction of the state of Israel. They are still supporting terrorist organizations, Hamas and Hezbollah. They are still exporting explosive devices into Iraq, killing young Americans. They are still trying to extend their influence throughout the MIddle East, so I view Iran as still a great threat to peace in the world and particularly in Iraq and in the region."
