Imagine how frightened the children of Iran are. To be waiting for a superior and evil empire to attack at any minute. I feel sorry for them. They will grow up to seek revenge.

This is more of playground "my weiner is bigger" or "I am going to punch you into next Tuesday" kind of talk.

I would not take this literally.
