Iran's parliament speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf mocked US Secretary of State Marco Rubio's "weapons" remark. He said, purportedly attributing it to Rubio, "Then we [US] could've gone in, seized all their oil fields in 48 hours...created many...new Gazas. The real 'American Dream' folks." Rubio had said Iran would've been a "different country" if it spent money on people instead of weapons.
