Bolton Book: Powell Wanted to Offer ‘Carrots’ to Iran Over Nuke Program

“The Europeans had a long list of them — trade and investment options, technology,” Bolton said. “The list of carrots was always longer than the list of sticks.”

Well just wait till Clinton gets her stick out, really works well on Bill./sarc

Thanks for this post. It’s disgraceful that John Bolton could not continue as our rep to the UN.

Bolton is a great man. We need more like in government but we aren’t likely to get them. Ardent defenders of US interests aren’t popular in Washington. You have too many of the types who do not know how to delineate between what an enemy says and what the truth is. The left has a horrible fault of believing that because someone feels or thinks something that it is some how valid of its own accord whether the thought or feeling is based on truth or not. So many of the lefts pet lawsuits are based upon the flawed premises of thought crime.

Most of it is colored by infantile hatred of the US so it makes them even more prone to accept ignorant and dangerous premises. They pride themselves in taking the inconvenient nonintuitive position and then hold that up as an example of how intelligent they are when in reality it demonstrates nothing more than a high form of intellectual vanity. They choose those positions not because of any deep intellect but because their thoughts flow through the basic geography of their fairly warped minds.
