Published | Video Starts at 06:20

It killed 100,000Americans last year, 4,000 Pennsylvanians. So I think using the military in a very discreet way to take those narco terrorists out makes a lot of sense. This is a sanctioned ship. This is a rogue state and a narco terrorist state. And so I think this is appropriate. But I also take the point that we need to be careful not to get drawn into a situation where American troops are going to be put in a lot of danger. (06:20–06:26)
