US President Donald Trump on Friday said the war on Iran was to wipe out what he described as “evil", adding they have been killing people in the “most violent" way.
“We did this excursion. We had to do it—wipe out evil… they’ve been killing people in the most violent way. The roadside bombs all over the place, 95% of them are from Iran… people have waited for 47 years for it to happen, so we have to do it right", Trump said in an interview.
