US would 'love' Iranians to topple government but not war objective: Rubio | AFP

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio voices support for the toppling of Iran’s Islamic Republic, but says it is not the objective of the US and Israeli war.

"But the objective of this mission is the destruction of their ballistic missile capabilities and of their naval capabilities," he adds. SOUNDBITE
