Trump: US shouldn't have been in Iran. US has spared Iran's military as they're "moderate"

Trump's comments to Fox News
quote:
“We shouldn’t have been in Iran, but Iran has the capability,” he continued. “If we didn’t hit them with B-2 bombers, nine months ago, they would have a nuclear weapon right now and will be a whole different story. You probably wouldn’t have had Israel, but you probably wouldn’t have had a Middle East, and then where do they go from there?”
Trump also claimed the US has deliberately spared the Iranian military.
“Their military, we sort of left it alone because we think that their military is somewhat moderate. They have other people that aren’t moderate. We’ve taken them. We’ve taken different forms of leadership out. We’ve actually left their military alone,” he said.
Trump added that “people would be surprised to hear that because mistakes have been made in wars where you wipe out everybody and then you have a country that’s, you know, for 40 years can never rebuild”.

I don’t mind providing a little context assistance to help you acquire a proper interpretation of these simple words, pro bono.
“U.S. shouldn’t have been in Iran, because they never should have had that nuclear weapons technology in the first place.”

I posted this because it's interesting and seems to be a very different perspective than almost anyone has vocalized.
I consume a lot of news related to this war, and I've never heard the military described as "moderate". Given this is novel AND from Trump, it's a perspective people should be aware of.

How is it not better to give the word for word quote of the person who made the comment?? Oh wait, it’s hard to claim this is “fake news” now. Got it.
