He wanted war with Iran.
Why?
They are a threat to the USA.
However, war is not the only option, and, as we have seen, the aftermath of war in the Middle East, even when we obliterate the enemy forces, are far worse than the war itself.
The reason for is obvious. The real enemy isn’t a nation-state like Iran, or Iraq or Afghanistan.
The real enemy is Islam.
Islam is not a religion like Christianity or Judaism, or even Hinduism or Buddhism.
Islam is a political system created by a crafty but insane Arab to conquer the world.
It is much more related to the Communist or Nazi party than a religion.
Until we decide we must destroy Islam, we have no business conquering an Islamic country.
We can destroy their offensive military equipment when it appears, like pouring Amdro on an fire ant hill, where we keep them to a minimum level of harm to US.
Bolton doesn’t get it.
He’s salty because Trump won’t go to war with Iran.
Right.
I prefer the "mysterious unexplained explosion" method.
Iran deserves more of them.
