US Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton threatened to destroy Iran if it launches a nuclear attack on Israel."I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president we will attack Iran," Clinton said when asked how she would respond to a nuclear attack on Israel. "In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider ... an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them."
Barack Obama last week said all options were open when it came to preventing Iran "from using nuclear weapons or obtaining nuclear weapons."
Clinton's tough talk came just before yesterday's Pennsylvania primary. Voting was to end at 8am today.
