Peter Schiff: Stop Iran from getting Nukes

9/11 Truther Alex Jones upset with Schiff's Goldwater Republican views

Jewish Republican and libertarian candidate for the GOP nomination for US Senate in Connecticut Peter Schiff, re-stated his tough stance on Iran on the Alex Jones show recently. Jones, a strident Ron Paulist and Anti-War activist was taken aback by Schiff's stridency.

Examiner columnist Martin Hill describes the exchange:

Jones asked Schiff about some comments he had made late last year regarding Iran's possible developlent of nuclear weapons. Explaining that he does not want to invade and occupy Iran, Schiff nevertheless stated once again that if Iran developed a nuclear weapon, the U.S. should use its' military might to bomb the facility and "blow the place up'".

Here are Schiff's responses:

"I've got to win a Republican primary, I can't appear as if I don't want any national defense. I don't think a nuclear Iran is something we should allow. The terrorists are not rational. They're willing to die for a cause. If we know for sure, for sure, if theyre developing a nuclear weapon..."

And later on:

".. we want to wait until Iran actually drops a nuclear weapon , smuggles it into a major american city , murders millions of people, and then we'll respond. That is not the credible policy for a senate candidate, I don't think."

Jones reacted with ingidnation, suggesting that Schiff had Pro-Bush views.
