John Kirby: ‘We Will Respond [to Iran] … in a Time and Manner of Our Choosing’

EXCERPT:

KIRBY: “Well, Mika, no question, there's going to be a response. And you heard that from the president yesterday. We -- we will respond. But as we've done in the past, we're going to do it in a time and a manner of our choosing. We'll -- we'll be careful, we'll be deliberate about this. And -- and the president will make the right decisions at the right time. We're certainly not going to telegraph punches to the Iranians or to these groups that they're backing.”
