"Make no mistake, if Iran achieves a nuclear weapons capability, it will not be because we couldn't stop it, but because we chose not to stop it."

"We see the latest evidence of that today in reports that the Syrian government has transferred long-range Scud missiles to Hezbollah."

"I'll be very interested to see if your prediction comes true; that meaningful sanctions will be agreed to by the Russians and the Chinese. They've been playing rope-a-dope with us for now over a year."

"we meet here today to discuss U.S. policy toward Iran, which at present is focused foremost on the imperative of preventing that government from acquiring a nuclear weapons capability."
