U.S. President Barack Obama's policies have left an Israeli attack on Iran the only option in preventing the Muslim country from obtaining a nuclear weapon, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton wrote in The Washington Post Thursday.
In an article headlined "Time for an Israeli Strike?" Bolton answered his own question by stating, "Israel decision of whether to use military force against Tehran's nuclear weapons program is more urgent than ever ... Those who oppose Iran acquiring nuclear weapons are left in the near term with only the option of targeted military force against its weapons facilities."

I would feel much better about my country if John Bolton was in charge.
I’ve always liked Bolton...no word mincing, and right on the money. I’ll bet this stuff pisses off zero and his minions to no end!
We could be in for a very interesting 4th of July holiday with NKorea and the Israel/Iran situation.
Bolton/Palin in 2012!

Israel could take out the nuke sites on July 4th and join us that day in celebrating a national holiday of their own.
And if we had a congress with courage to back him.

Good job.
John Bolton is greatly disliked by the left..because he has them in his sites, and explaines their hypocrisy and lies every time he fronts a news camera. Bolton is smart, well versed in anything he states as facts, and should be involved in foreign affairs on a major basis. American Foreign Affairs are sadly going down the drain world wide at the hands of the Obamanation in the White House. BO couldn’t be more wrong on most decisions, and even the other liberal loud progressive woman, Hillary Clinton has been put on hold. SHE DOESN’T LIKE IT!!
My dream ticket that got away: Cheney/Bolton.
Now, if our Administration wants to avoid this, they need to get their ass in gear and coerce Iran into giving up nukes. And none of this “give them til the end of the year” crap.
Oh yeah... same ole story...
First Israel has to dispense with the Iraqi nuclear option, and then they’ll have to dispense with the Iranian nuclear option.
Why does the world leave all the dirty work to the Israelis?
Voinovich (R-OH) busted out in tears when Bolton was named Ambassador to the UN.
He’s absolutely right. Israel’s continued existence depends upon it’s willingness to destroy Iran’s nuke capabilities. And right now!
Re your #3: “Bolton/Palin in 2012!”
Now there’s a ticket that works for me, either way you stack it!
Let’s hope our Nation survives long enough for a conservative “bounce - back” like we had after America woke up to reality and got it’s fill of Carter.
Already Barry is making Jimmuh look like a “moderate” by comparison.
All these “progressive” neo-republicans (like our Senators from Maine) who whine that they will never ever win another election if they reach out to - or even acknowledge - the conservative “base”, and in order to survive they have to go after “minority” groups by becoming more welfare-state liberal, must have been in a coma when Ronaldus Magnus was RE-elected... by ANOTHER landslide victory.
Those ‘minority groups’ will only vote “R” in a primary, where they can choose the “Most Likely to Lose” Republican Nominee for us (sort of like they did in the last election)and then scurry right back under the red hen’s wings.
Why does the party allow them to do that?
Oh; right; ... It’s been infiltrated by Communists who apparently get to make the rules, and the non-Commies apparently don’t have the cahone’s to stand up to them.
That’s why they get a GWB “Nada Pesos” note from me whenever they come begging for a contribution. We’re already supporting the DNC, labor unions, and ACORN when we pay our taxes.
The Republican party had best cleanse itself of the Marxist infiltrators who are all to close to taking it completely over - if they don’t rule it already - just like they have piled on and hijacked the Democrat party...
or the Republic is surely lost.

The best part is the “fireworks”.
“Now there’s a ticket that works for me, either way you stack it! Let’s hope our Nation survives long enough for a conservative “bounce - back” like we had after America woke up to reality and got it’s fill of Carter.”
I think it will survive, but the way things are going, and at the pace they’re going, we’re not going to see it done by a natural shift of power anymore. The fact that there is not a dimes worth of difference between the Republican and Democrat party anymore, there will need to be a major paradigm shift in this country to force a change in DC.
“Already Barry is making Jimmuh look like a “moderate” by comparison.” Amen!
“That’s why they get a GWB “Nada Pesos” note from me whenever they come begging for a contribution. We’re already supporting the DNC, labor unions, and ACORN when we pay our taxes.”
Whenever I get those calls and letters, I go to great pains to let them know that they will never see another cent or in-kind activity of support until they start acting like conservative leaders. Never seems to make a difference, but it makes me feel better!
“The Republican party had best cleanse itself of the Marxist infiltrators who are all to close to taking it completely over - if they don’t rule it already - just like they have piled on and hijacked the Democrat party...

That will take: leadership, balls, true love of country, selflessness, willingness to take a risk, yada yada yada. I just don’t see it with this group.
It’s time for a govt. remake. Something of that scope will not occur on it’s own.....unfortunately, it may require a major disaster to make this generation of idiots open their eyes.

For the simple reason that so many “Conservatives” don’t have the guts that Bolton does. Most of them are Rino’s or more to the point, Cino’s.
It’s the reason the country is in the devestating predicament it’s in imo. CO
John Bolten in...”BALLS OF STEEL!!”
