Maybe you should have thought about this when you were spending most of your adult life pushing for the U.S. to invade Iraq and topple its Sunni-dominated Ba'athist government, @SSHOLE.
It's astonishing that so many Freepers were actually pushing for Trump to nominate this useless pr!ck as Secretary of State.
I have a Hell of a lot more respect for Bolton than I do for you.
Bolton is a neocon. His interventionist tendencies are dangerous and misguided.
I don’t think Bolton is being sincere about his expressed desire for an independent Kurdistan.
He wants Iraq broken up, he wants Erdogan’s power in Turkey to be checked, he wants Iranian hegemony in the region curtailed.
The Kurds are just a means to an end for that agenda.
