The scariest things John Bolton has said

Trump’s new national security adviser really, really wants to bomb Iran and North Korea.

https://i2.wp.com/thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/gettyimages-923076450.jpg?resize=1280%2C720px&ssl=1


On bombing Iran

“The inescapable conclusion is that Iran will not negotiate away its nuclear program. Nor will sanctions block its building a broad and deep weapons infrastructure,” Bolton wrote in a 2015 New York Times column headlined, “To Stop Iran’s Bomb, Bomb Iran (https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/26/opinion/to-stop-irans-bomb-bomb-iran.html).”

“The inconvenient truth is that only military action like Israel’s 1981 attack on Saddam Hussein’s Osirak reactor in Iraq or its 2007 destruction of a Syrian reactor, designed and built by North Korea, can accomplish what is required. Time is terribly short, but a strike can still succeed.”

On bombing North Korea

“Pre-emption opponents argue that action is not justified because Pyongyang does not constitute an ‘imminent threat.’ They are wrong. The threat is imminent, and the case against pre-emption rests on the misinterpretation of a standard that derives from prenuclear, pre-ballistic-missile times,” Bolton wrote last month in a Wall Street Journal column headlined, “The Legal Case for Striking North Korea First (https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-legal-case-for-striking-north-korea-first-1519862374).”

“Given the gaps in U.S. intelligence about North Korea, we should not wait until the very last minute. That would risk striking after the North has deliverable nuclear weapons, a much more dangerous situation.”

On the war in Iraq

“We are confident that Saddam Hussein has hidden weapons of mass destruction and production facilities in Iraq,” Bolton said in 2002 while serving as President George W. Bush’s under secretary of state for Arms Control and International Security.

There were not, of course, hidden weapons of mass destruction and production facilities in Iraq, but in 2015, Bolton said he had no regrets.

On Syrian refugees

“We have no obligation to bring them into this country,” Bolton said in an interview with Fox News in 2015 (https://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/barbara-hollingsworth/former-un-ambassador-us-has-no-obligation-accept-syrian-refugees).

On ‘provocative’ presidents

“We have a president who believes that our strength is provocative, only if we were less pushy, less American even,” Bolton said of Obama in 2012 (http://www.tampabay.com/news/politics/stateroundup/former-un-ambassador-john-bolton-accuses-president-barack-obama-of/1248816).

“But it is American weakness that’s provocative and we have a very provocative president in the White House.”

QUOTE #1 from dipshit president:

As they get something, it gets tougher. Because politically, you can’t give it away. So preexisting conditions are a tough deal. Because you are basically saying from the moment the insurance, you’re 21 years old, you start working and you’re paying $12 a year for insurance, and by the time you’re 70, you get a nice plan. Here’s something where you walk up and say, “I want my insurance.” It’s a very tough deal, but it is something that we’re doing a good job of.

QUOTE #2 from dipshit president:

[W]e’re putting in $8bn [to a high-risk coverage pool] and you’re going to have absolute coverage. You’re going to have absolute guaranteed coverage. You’re going to have it if you’re a person going in … don’t forget, this was not supposed to be the way insurance works. Insurance is, you’re 20 years old, you just graduated from college, and you start paying $15 a month for the rest of your life and by the time you’re 70, and you really need it, you’re still paying the same amount and that’s really insurance.

Neocons handing Trash extremists to start war on Iran

Pompeo’s rise will make Mideast war more likely

The newly nominated secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, is a foreign policy hawk who opposes the Iran nuclear deal.

In 2015, Pompeo voted against a deal that the Obama administration negotiated (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2015/07/15/transcript-obamas-news-conference-on-the-iran-nuclear-deal/) to remove some international economic sanctions on Iran.

In exchange, Iran would significantly scale back its nuclear program and submit to intrusive international inspections.

Tillerson’s departure means the Iran nuclear deal is in trouble.

And if Trump scraps it, I fear the whole Middle East could erupt in conflict.

Perhaps most importantly, though, Tillerson defied Trump on Iran.

Trump has been highly critical of the international nuclear agreement since his 2016 presidential campaign (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/13/us/politics/trump-iran-nuclear-deal.html), calling it “the worst deal ever negotiated (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-trump-iran/trump-election-puts-iran-nuclear-deal-on-shaky-ground-idUSKBN13427E).”

backing out of the nuclear deal would destabilize the Middle East – and potentially put the world at risk – because Iran would likely react by restarting its nuclear program.

Secretary of Defense James Mattis agreed with Tillerson on Iran.

The two of them periodically lobbied the president not to scrap the deal (https://www.timesofisrael.com/despite-threats-trump-to-extend-sanctions-relief-for-iran-sources/), and their influence got the agreement recertified in July 2017.

To Trump, Tillerson’s stance on Iran (http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/tillerson-pompeo-2032236124) wasn’t just a difference of opinion – it was, perhaps, an act of disloyalty.

As a congressman, Pompeo opposed the Obama-era Iran agreement as “unconscionable,” (https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/with-mike-pompeo-at-the-state-department-are-the-uber-hawks-winning) and he said after Trump’s election that he was looking forward to “rolling it back.” Pompeo – with whom, Trump reports, he has very good chemistry (https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/mar/13/pompeo-trump-developed-chemistry-daily-briefings/) – is also

on record saying that Iran is “intent on destroying America (https://www.cnbc.com/2018/03/13/mike-pompeo-on-national-security-issues.html).”

https://www.salon.com/2018/03/23/pompeos-rise-will-make-mideast-war-more-likely_partner/

Will Trash, Bolton, Pompeo, with Israel and Saudi Arabia, start the Iran war in time for 2020, so Trash can run as "war so-called Pres"?

Trump’s Next National Security Adviser, John Bolton, Is As Dangerous As You Remembered

One of the most notorious advocates for the Iraq War is set to advise the president on U.S. foreign policy.

Bolton is a notoriously hawkish former United Nations ambassador whose views don’t even align with the isolationist foreign policy platform on which Trump campaigned ―

He has called for bombing Iran (https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/26/opinion/to-stop-irans-bomb-bomb-iran.html) and North Korea (https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-legal-case-for-striking-north-korea-first-1519862374).

This does not bode well for diplomatic efforts, such as Trump’s apparent plan to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-kim-jong-un-north-korea_us_5aa1c72ee4b01b9b0a39a2db).

In fact, Bolton said on Fox News earlier this month that he

predicts the meeting will fail ― which he suggested would likely lead to military action.
And last month, Bolton made a strong case for a strike on North Korea. In an op-ed published in The Wall Street Journal (https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-legal-case-for-striking-north-korea-first-1519862374) titled “The Legal Case For Striking North Korea First,”

he argued there were no legal reasons against a pre-emptive strike by the U.S.:

The threat is imminent, and

the case against pre-emption rests on the misinterpretation of a standard that derives from prenuclear, pre-ballistic-missile times.

Given the gaps in U.S. intelligence about North Korea, we should not wait until the very last minute.

That would risk striking after the North has deliverable nuclear weapons, a much more dangerous situation.

Make not mistake, we are careening towards war. Bolton has advocated for attacking Iran. A country with a population 4 times that of Iraq, and an economy 16 times larger, with an Army that will not run when faced with combat.

Bolton is the worst kind of ignorant fool, who thinks he is more informed and better at everything than he actually is.

We have a White House playing out the Donning Kruger effect, but with nuclear weapons, and the lives of our soldiers in their hands.
