Democrats in the US state of Pennsylvania are choosing between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama in the race for the presidential nomination.
Clinton, who is hoping for a big win on Tuesday to keep her hopes of being the Democratic candidate alive, issued a threat to "obliterate" Iran if it launched a nuclear attack against Israel.
"I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran," she told ABC news.
"In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them."
"That's a terrible thing to say but those people who run Iran need to understand that because that perhaps will deter them from doing something that would be reckless, foolish and tragic," Clinton said.
