British Journalist to Try to Make Citizen's Arrest of John Bolton During U.K. Trip

Wednesday, May 28, 2008

John Bolton may need some additional protection at his speech Wednesday evening in Wales, United Kingdom, as a journalist from the Guardian newspaper plans on making a citizen's arrest of the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.

Bolton is appearing at the Hay Literary Festival in Wales to promote his new book, "Surrender Is Not an Option: Defending America at the United Nations." The Telegraph newspaper reports that George Monbiot wants to arrest Bolton for war crimes as the ambassador prepares to leave the stage.

Monbiot has been pushing his authority to do so, claiming Section 24A of Britain's Serious Organized Crime and Police Act 2005 gives individuals the authority to arrest without a warrant "anyone whom he has reasonable grounds for suspecting to be guilty" of an offense.

He argues that Bolton helped plan the war in Iraq when he was undersecretary of state for arms control at the State Department, using information he knew to be false.

I’ve met JB once when a buddy of mine from the DEnnis Miller TV show brought me one afternoon to the show (now cancelled).

He’s small in stature, but very cordial and especially intelligent to converse with. The one aspect that I immediately noticed or felt was that JB has that presence of “DON’T F WITH ME” so if Moonbat (whatever his name is) would try to physically take him, the pansy arse Brit is dead meat.

I wonder what “Monbiot” means in French or whatever language it’s from?.............

One plausible parsing from Latin would be "single cell."

I look foward to seeing a video on YouTube of Bolton bitchslapping some bald pantywaist in London. It ought to be great.

It means nothing. It is just a surname.
