John Bolton: U.S. National Security Commitments ‘Under Attack From Within’
Daily Caller ^ | November 26, 2019 3:52 PM ET | JUSTIN CARUSO

Former Trump administration advisor John Bolton said that the United States’ commitments to national security are “under attack from within” in a tweet Tuesday.

“It probably goes without saying, that our country’s commitment to our national security priorities is under attack from within. America is distracted. Our enemies are not,” Bolton wrote.

“We need to make U.S. national security a priority. #JohnBolton”

The former U.N. ambassador, who left the White House earlier this year, returned to Twitter this month with a strange tweet telling people to “stay tuned.”

“Glad to be back on Twitter after more than two months. For the backstory, stay tuned…” he wrote.

It actually came as a survey; my experience with "surveys" is that you click the submit button and up pops the donation GUI.

Didn't waste my time with it.

It's on his PAC website:

Boltonpac.com poll

So the man's got a PAC and he's got the RNC email list.

Maybe he has something in mind. Like running for dog catcher in Bethesda...

“National security commitments” can be interpreted to mean those things the reader thinks they mean, which may or may not mean what Bolton is thinking of. Bolton has in mind what he thinks the priorities are. Everyone else has their own idea of the right priorities.

But of course, Bolton is petulant at being fired and makes his cryptic remark KNOWING that the media will interpret it as: “Trump’s not on the ball” on “national security commitments”.

Apparently Mr Bolton isn’t aware that the President has increased troop levels in Afghanistan since taking office.
Sure, we pulled 50 soldiers out of Northern Syria and into Iraq, but the President followed that up by putting 500 troops in Syria to protect their oil fields.
Similarly, the President is sending 1,800 more troops to Saudi Arabia to protect their oil fields from Iran.
There seems to be no slowdown in endless wars for Mr Bolton to be concerned about.

The trouble with Bolton and those like him (Lindsay Graham and the Cheney’s immediately come to mind) is that they equate American dominance in each sphere of influence globally as National Security. The trouble with this is the enormous cost in American blood and treasure and the continued resolve to perpetuate this policy. Trump has it right: use American economic might to peacefully influence foreign behaviors with tariffs a key, constitutionally mandated tool.

I hate Neoconservatives.

They are the War Pigs Black Sabbath sang about.

“War Pigs”

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer of death’s construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to Mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds...
Oh Lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait ‘till their judgment day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning
Ashes where the bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of Judgment, God is calling
On their knees the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings...
Oh Lord, yeah!
