Here is why I don’t. And Trump doesn’t. bolton is a neocon global interventionist who help FAKE news on wmd to kill 4000 American heroes, wound 40,000 American heroes and kill 300,000 Iraqi men women and children. I hate the son of a bitch! — He did it For nothing!! That stupid son of a bitch wants to BOMB IRAN!! A country that has 68 million and an army, air force and navy of 750,000. I want you and your daughter to go first!! I have a clue for you, LEAVE OTHER PEOPLE,the HELL, ALONE unless they frick with you. COMPRENDE?
That’s not what Bolton will be in charge of, just as Tillerson won’t be in charge of the boy scouts
Ya....Isolationist.
Your characterizations are without merit.
I’ll take Bolton as Deputy thank you.
I agree that Bolton is frequently too aggressive - and I generally very much disagree with interventionism. That said, I would like to know what the fake news was.
However, Iran is one country that must be checked and cannot be allowed to build nukes under any circumstances. Bushes wars were (and I said so at the time) idiotic. War with Iran may be necessary (as long as it doesn’t start WWIII with Russia).
1. Chemical weapons were seen trucked to Syria from Iraq, prior to our invasion.
2. Yellow cake was most definitely found, and a chemical weapons repository was also found and later we destroyed it.
3. Saddam gave us permission to restart the war after only one RADAR lock-on during the cease-fire. Saddam broke this agreement multiple times a week.
The war was perfectly defensible. The question is, “Was it needed for terrorists that came from Saudi Arabia?”
Bull crap.
We didn’t go to war to find “stockpiles” we went to war to eliminate a mass murderer who was in violation of the Gulf War cease fire of 1991 ... not to mention every single UN resolution following it up to the day of the invasion of 2003; because Iraq provided terrorists with training in forgery among other things; because Iraq was harboring the bomb maker whose team attacked the World Trade center in 1993, because Iraq was harboring the terrorist cells of 1999 Millennium plotter Zarqawi [whose followers, along with Iraqi General al Dhouri’s men, eventually became the core of ISIS under his leadership]; because Iraq was funding terrorists in the Philippines who were decapitating tourists including Americans; because an Iraqi diplomat was involved in a bombing that killed a US soldier in the Philippines; because Iraq was developing a long range missile in violation of the terms imposed on it; because Iraq failed to turn over all prototypes and blueprints [which was proven when we found them after the invasion]; and because sanctions had demonstrably failed to force Saddam into compliance with providing a full and verifiable inventory of what equipment, prototypes, plans, precursors, growth media, product and delivery systems it claimed to have possessed nor did it provide a verifiable account of what it destroyed; and because Iraq was barring the questioning of its scientists, some of whom turned up later in Libya’s nuclear program.
it'll make you feel better.
You are a fool.
No one but you advocates imperialism, and, third worldist imperialism like Sadam and Obama, which invariably end up being Chinese and Russian banana imperial districts inherited from the heinous British Crown defunct.
The question about anyone who has made a mistake in the past (nearly everyone except me) is whether they have learned from their mistake.
One mistake in the chess game called the middleeast is that after the neocons had a brilliant move to knock out Sadam those neocons had not thought of the next move in the chess game. They had no plan what to do with the Iraqi army. They had no plan how to do nation-building.
So has Bolton (and others) learned. The next time Bolton (or others) advocates a dramatic action, do they have a plan for the next series of moves in the chess game?
Consider it from the perspective of a great negotiator. A negotiator has several cards in his hand. The other players have several cards in their hand. The great negotiator has to think not only of the first card he plays, and the first card the others play. The great negotiator has to think of how the sequence of cards plays out.
RE: FAKE news on wmd to kill 4000 American heroes,
There WERE WMD’s found, Unless Chemical Weapons are not considered WMD’s.
Here’s a New York Times Report several years after the fact:
