"Mr Bolton said that striking Iran would represent a major step towards victory in Iraq. While he acknowledged that the risk of a hostile Iranian response harming American’s overseas interests existed, he said the damage inflicted by Tehran would be “far higher” if Washington took no action."
“This is a case where the use of military force against a training camp to show the Iranians we’re not going to tolerate this is really the most prudent thing to do,” he said. “Then the ball would be in Iran’s court to draw the appropriate lesson to stop harming our troops.”
More war to end war. What a proposal....

Just another piece in Bush's collection of warmongering administration members. I hope they don't do anything stupid before the election!

But wait...there's more...
Bolton made his comments only hours after the New York Times published an alarmist story about Iran...using the usual "UNNAMED SOURCES"...see related story at link on this cite...

LOL For some odd reason I was talking about Capitan Crunch yesterday. Thanks for the link Jan. Very funny!!
-
The naivety of the US administration continues. Will they ever realise that the Middle East is a much more complex region than they potray it to be. You would think they would have learn't lessons from Iraq. Bolton being a neo con, was one of the hawks in the Bush administration who seemed compelled to invade Iraq because of ideological vigour, there is a clear absence of rationality.
-
Okay, this is beginning to look all too familiar - what the he!! is the matter with these people.
-
without trouble there is no need for monopolizing and maximizing power, it ends up being some sort of social extortion, between those in power of politics and economics, and the rest of us.
greed makes that grip on power stronger and much less interested in common needs.
as long as they are in control, any sort of cohesive behavior will be applied.
this is why trying to give power to someone ethical and elitist destabilizes their base and threatens their addiction to power, which is related to our addiction to oil and carbon, though that is another story. -
This is insulting and worrying.
But thanks for that comment Jan, made this story a little brighter. =D -
Good, I hope they bomb Iran to kingdom come.

did you want to elaborate on that a bit, Liberal Extinction?
-
i still dont know what we are fighting for, we should find out who attacked us on 9/11.
-
what the basis for you argument Liberal_Extinction? Or maybe you dont have one.
-
Bombing Iran would just cause more problems for us. Problems that we don't want. You would think that all the admirals/generals/whoever would be smart enough to know that attacking Iran in any way would just cause huge problems for the US in the middle east.

I'm not so much worried about our reputation (everyone already hates us to some degree). I'm more worried about larger wars that could be started by the US government.
-
That sounds like a great idea! At what point are these neanderthals going to get the idea, you can't kill everybody you don't get along with. Maybe we should try some diplomacy, you know, talking to people - that's what we pay diplomats to do - right?

I say we just wait it out a little bit for 1 of 3 things to happen. Either A) proof Iran has nuclear weapon research/ attempts to build the bomb -or- B) Find some concrete proof of them funding the jihadists in Iraq -or- C) attack Israel. The second ANY of these qualifications are met, blow Iran clean off of the map, if it takes a nuke to prevent the loss of any American/ coalition military forces then so be it, feed 'em a nuke or two.

Liberal_Extinction how can you say that? There are millions of innocent people in Iran who would be killed by actions such as that. Plus nuking Iran would would do a few other things no one wants. First of all this would cause others in the region to dislike us even more and secondly it would give countries that support Iran (Russia) a reason to start something with us. NUKING IRAN WOULD BE REALLY REALLY STUPID.
-
You guys are so stupid, it the war was for oil than we wouldnt be paying 10dollars a gallon. If we had been smart we would have taken control of iraqs oil reserve and instead of us paying for their freedom made their own oil wells pay it. and as for the bomb iran thing thats the most gaytarded thing ive ever heard of, if that happend we would be even more screwed than we are now. but liberalism extinction isnt gonna happen because poor people are never gonna get rid of their slave masters who give them eevrything from cradle to grave. viva la everyone getting some edumication. But to yoshi you shouldnt be scared of russia your an american, you shouldnt be scared of anyone!

Ya gotta admit that Liberal knows how to put on a good show for the Neanderthal among us. Actually i think he should apply for Mr. Boltons job as i'm sure he would inject the necessary amount of levity into the equation. But let's get real and leave Liberal under his rock. Iran has some kook in charge at the moment. He is kind of a mouthpiece and lightening rod for the powers that be. He'll be gone in awhile because, like our own freakshow in the oval office, he doesn't enjoy mass support even among his own people.The average Iranians are fairly open minded fun loving, western leaning folks. I know this 'cause i worked with one for years who was a refugee of the Iran/Iraq conflict. (that we funded by the way). Given a sufficient amount of smart diplomacy and a few incentives, Irans current leader will disappear, removed or be shuffled to some "desk job". The stakes for the country are to large for this kinda of bozo to be left in charge for very long. But the one way to make sure that he becomes a hero and the country at large to be seen as a martyr for the Islamic world, is for the policies of Bolton to be put into effect. The working definition of "insanity" is to keep doing the same things over again and expecting different results. An apt characterization of Mr. Bolton. More to the point; the man is a fucking idiot who is incapable of learning from his own mistakes or the lessons of history. Like most NeoConJob "frightwingers" he thinks that he can make up his own reality and the rest of us can just go choke on it. As one famous RepubliCon nut job once said, "we don't wait for events. We make up our own reality." Smooth. To bad they never considered that the're reality lacks even a modicum of sanity. The guy in Tehran is just an ideologue circus clown. John Bolton is an ideologue killer. A man with a little mind and smaller dick.Like the school yard bully who intimidates his way through the day, Bolton strides across the national stage spewing his paranoia, his cowardice and his lack of intellect. My eleven year old daughter could best this douche' in a verbal sparing match.
So, go gettem' John. That's right. You go nuke 'em. Ride that shiny piece of technology all the way down to the grave. Go show those worthless Iranians what a pussy with a bomb really looks like. You GO GIRL!!
And you go too Liberal !! right now. . get off your ass and sign up to go hold that self propelled rocket launcher. Get down wit yo bad sef
kind regards -
Fucking win, props tikiman,

bombs away everything is a ok..... I mean really, they should just pull the troops out and nuke that whole area... would that be wrong...
-
I recommend a John Bolton air strike into deep space.
-
1. An air strike against Bolton's moustache would do more to help the peace process.
2. Liberal_Extinction is quite possibly the toughest person ever to post on a message board. Only a true grade-A badass can advocate wiping out the entire population of a country with such effortless grace. -
Well, what do you guys think we SHOULD do about terrorist training camps?
-
well , if you want to "simplify" things , it's a good start to vaporize whichever targets seem to be causing the most trouble - it's really beyond argument that if this is done often enough things can only get less complicated .
-
its so funny how american's never learn. we fought terrorism by invading and overthrowing the government of iraq and afghanistan. what happened? global surge in terrorism and activity of terrorism cells.
we should strap bolton to a bomb and send him to israel. -
Bolton is both insane and HE should not forget - he can be held accountable for knowingly deceiving the people of the United States.
Desperate people - these Busheney gangsters.

i do not believe we should use nuclear weapons against iran, but i do believe that a limited strategic air strike against there military training camps and nuclear facilities should have happened a long time ago
-
If we attack Iran say goodbye to the world, they are backed by Russia and once Russia and the US start nuking each other everyone gets involved, this is very dangerous territory we are treading into, even if the rest of the world doesn't get involved Russia and America will cancel each other out with their nukes, I got the most brilliant idea ever! pull out of Iraq, no more terrorists attacking US Troops, no more problems in Iran, and im sure the terrorists will be sufficiently happy when we stop telling middle eastern countries what not and what to do. How about we leave everyone alone and live in peace and worry about domestic problems. but we all know that will never happen, I guess the fate of the US is in bush's hands, this worries me deeply.

Anyone who suggest that we engage Iran is a complete fool. First point I'm going to make is the fear factor. You don't know if the report are correct. We attacked Iraq because it was reported that they had weapons of mass destruction never found them. We still have not found benny. Stop with the fear hyping, until I get proof from a real source with a name attached to it. It's just hype, sounds like wag the dog to me, all those that want to nuc them, strap up and we will send you
keep it 100 -
i served in the marines i was with a fast co. out of va. and also with1/3 out of kaneohe mcb. when i was with 1/3 we did patrols out of kir kush it's in eastern iraq on the iraq/iran border part of our mission while we were there was to patrol the border region there. we detained hundreds of iraqi/iranian militants crossing the border most with either small arms and some with exsplosives. so don't tell me that i'm a complete fool or ignorant, i was there i know what i saw. i don't need you guys or the news telling me how bad these guys can be i know from my own experience.
to say that russia would attack the u.s. with nukes if we did strategic strikes against iran is the most ignorant thing i've heard. i'm sure they would'nt like the idea since they have buisness ties to iran but to think they would start an all out nuclear war with us is not smart. they have plenty of the own security problems. -
CAPTAIN CRUNCH....LMFAO!

riverdeer, islam attacked us on 9/11. I thought everyone knew that. They have been attacking us for years.
If Bolton has mental problems it is, without a doubt, due to having to deal with the United Nations, a thoroughly corrupt, anti-American useless group that should be considered a joke among thinking people.
I don't know about bombing Iran. Israel may take care of the Iran problem before too long. I can't see the IDF letting Iran becoming more of a threat to that area than it already is without doing something.
It is quite possible that we will wind up in it with Iran at some point in the future, beyond what they are doing in Iraq. I think, if we can ID terrorist training camps or sources of munitions being used in Iraq we should make sure these places cease to exist.
Bottom line, no matter what we do with Iran, obliterate it or talk to it, nothing will change with islam. We are in a war with that cult and that will not change. -
I would just like to take this moment to thank all of you Right wingers for electing an entire party of neanderthals.

We need to impeach Bush and get rid of all his war-mongering cronies as soon as possible. This is awful. How can such terrible people yield such power in our society? How did this happen?
