04 Sep 2008 05:11 pm

He stresses that he'd never take the "military option" off the table when it comes to Iran. The full interview airs at 8:00 pm ET tonight on Fox News.

Bill O'Reilly: "Do you believe we are in the middle of a War On Terror."

Barack Obama: "Absolutely."

 
Bill O: "Who's the enemy?"

 
BO:  "Al Qaeda, the Taliban, a whole host of networks that are bent on attacking America, who have a distorted ideology, who have perverted the faith of Islam and so we have to go after them."

 
Bill O: "The next President of the United States is going to have to make a decision about Iran whether to stop them militarily, because I don't believe, if diplomacy works - fine, but you've gotta have a plan B and a lot of people are saying look Barack Obama's not going to attack Iran...

BO (interrupts): "Look, look here's where you and I agree. It's unacceptable for Iran to possess a nuclear weapon. It would be a game changer and I've said that repeatedly. I've also said I would never take a military option off the table."
