John Bolton wants regime-change in Iran

<snip>

Bolton, one of the principal architects of the Iraq war, and an advocate of regime-change in Iraq long before the March 2003 invasion, said, "I believe that either regime-change in Iran or, as a last resort, military action, is the only thing that will stop the Iranians from getting nuclear weapons."

Bolton also took aim at European nations, particularly Britain, Germany, and France, which he said persuaded the U.S. to "screw around" with talks, which over the last three and a half years have achieved nothing, and allowed Iran to continue developing its nuclear program.

In a C-SPAN interview Bolton lamented declining support for the Bush administration. "For God's sakes, it needs to stand up and defend itself. No reason to act limp-wristed," he said.

"They should defend their policies and not allow The New York Times to characterize their policy. They should get out and speak what's on their minds," he added.

1. bolton is fucked up too.

[Demeter]

40. Because It Worked So Well In Iraq!

How's that Iraqi regime change going for you, PNACers? Felling any more powerful and secure? Do you really think anybody's going to honor those illegitimate oil contracts you stuffed down the Iraqi throats? Dop you really think the US fascists will ever occupy that Imperial Palace outside Baghdad, or the new bases under construction?

How'd you like to buy a bridge--it's a steal!

[Lerkfish]

2. why does this guy even have a forum?

isn't he unemployed?

[Supersedeas]

3. did he call Georgie Porgie and Kenny Mealymouth Mehlman gay?? Gannonized??

[Deep13]

4. U.S. public wants regime change in America.

:eyes:

[napi21]

5. WE WANT REGIME CHANGE HERE IN THE US!!!!!

Why is anyone still listening to Bolton? He wasn't confirmed to be the UN ambassador, and I thought he'd fade into oblivion! Why do his words still make it into the media?

[redqueen]

20. Urrr... something about advertising... wanting to 'create stories'...

nobody has come up with a believable answer IMO.

[bdamomma]

26. it's our media they bring these wicked people back from the dead

just like Tom DeLay, disgusting.

[ashling]

30. Anna Nicole still makes the news

and she is decomposing ... though she probably smells better than JB

[bigluckyfeet]

42. Let Bolton

Put on a uniform and get his ass over there.

[robinlynne]

32. yes we do!

[maddezmom]

6. bolton is crazier than a loon

thank the god's he's finally off the gov't payroll, unfortunately he's on AEI's so he still gets to spew his war and death rhetoric.

[rodeodance]

7. well, then go for it John

[Missy M]

8. Bottom line - invade Iran....

he doesn't want Bush to "screw around" with talks, so the other alternative is war. What a tough guy he is, "no reason to act limp-wristed". If we invaded Iran I believe the end result would be even worse than Iraq.

[redqueen]

23. "no reason to act limp-wristed"

Nice... how true to type for him to include that sort of statement.

He's batshit crazy as are the freeptards who eat his spew up. :puke:

[MidwestTransplant]

9. He should lead by example. Give him a bunch of M-16s and a truck full of

Freepers and send him to fight for regime change in Iran.

[redqueen]

22. Brilliant!

I agree with this option wholeheartedly. All warmongring idiots should be sent (poorly equipped, mind you) to go off to fight their idiotic wars themselves.

[arewenotdemo]

25. The Chickenhawk Gene keeps Bolton glued to the sidelines,

pom-poms in hands and cheering "faster, faster, please", ala Ledeen.

[Deep13]

10. When Bolton sticks his head up his ass, does he get shit on his mustache?

Just asking is all.:shrug:

[demnan]

11. I think all these old farts who want war

ought to be on the front lines going in, that way we can get them killed off first and then withdraw.

[Norquist Nemesis]

12. Bolton has zero authority. He's out of a job, thank God

And yet he's running around the talk show circuit like kid at the county fair. :puke:

[qwlauren35]

13. Um....

I find it absurd that a country as volatile and unpredictable in its military decision-making as the US has the right to dictate to any other country whether they can have nuclear weapons.

And I also doubt that we have dismantled ours.

I know that we believe we have the right to do this... clearly we proved this by invading Iraq over the premise of "WMD"s. But the world is going to get VERY sick of our high-handedness soon. And when this happens, it won't be pretty.

[MADem]

14. Well, people in hell want ice water, and I imagine at the end of his days he'll want some too. NT

[VegasWolf]

15. Yes, and horses want to fly too, ain't goona happen Monkey face! nt

[donkeyotay]

16. Well, get off your mustachchioed ass and get over there

Round up your neocon posse and go.

[Gryphons Eyre]

17. should read; high ranking nazi from neocon central

I believe people such as John Bolten and Dick Cheney are dangerously psychotic. They are totally out of control. Bombing Iran which is what will happen unless congress acts will precipitate world wide conflict; we might just as well refer to it as the Israelis and neocons refer to it already as WWIII. Discussion has nothing to do with this and even Iranian nuclear objectives are not the major reason for pushing for war; regime change is. Not only in Iran but in Syria while securing tyrannies in Iraq and Lebanon sympathetic to the U.S. and Israel.

This is not about what Iran has done; for all intents they have been the victims of western imperialism. It is about what America wants to do. period.

[donkeyotay]

33. They're in a race between being outed and finishing the job

which is getting the US mired in the middle east. Iran has always been at the top of their to-do list as the Larry Franklin indictment shows. I believe Bolton et al were part of a conspiracy to defraud the American people of their representative government and statutory agencies. They conspired to deceive us in order to commandeer our wealth and power for their own agenda, one they knew the American people would not knowingly accept. Part of it is the Likud. Part of it is oil. Part of it might have more to do with the Enterprise, which was a consortium of rich folks (includes both Israel and Saudi Arabia) who want a neo-world order. Then there's the imperialists in the military. The corruption of privatized defense contracting making war even more profitable than before. There are a lot of reasons, but the conspiracy to defraud I think is reasonable clear.

[rodeodance]

18. Poppy bush was called a WIMP-something Jr vowed he would NEVER

be called.
well, bolton just did it!

[redqueen]

19. Who gives a flying $#@* what that evil a-hole wants?

He's scum! $#@* HIM!

[rodeodance]

21. He is writing a book----out in NOV:

Bolton is writing a book which will be published in November this year. The title: "Surrender Is Not An Option: Defending America at the UN and Abroad."

[bdamomma]

27. he is going to insert the PNAC agenda in his book???

a$$holes all of them. They will not stop.

[Bonhomme Richard]

24. Yeah, I wonder how many in his family are going to..................

storm the beaches if Iran?
Oh yeah, I'm sure they have more important things to do. You know it takes some doing to start WWIII.

[sinkingfeeling]

28. Fine, why doesn't he hire himself an 'army' and lead the charge? He's not going to get it with

my tax dollars and my sons and daughters!

[Joe Bacon]

29. He doesn't want the Screw York Times characterizing his policy?

My god, the SCREW YORK TIMES led the charge to the Iraq War. They're doing the same thing to incite war with Iran! What planet is ol Walrus Face on?

[libodem]

31. What the hell do we want that is in Iran, anyway

Gold, Oil, Glory? Oh, yeah, what they said above *REGIME CHANGE IN AMERICA*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[LeftishBrit]

34. Bolton is an insane nutter

Please do NOT let him have any role in making any decisions!

I was sooooo glad when he didn't manage to become ambassador to the UN.

[ananda]

35. And American manipulated regime change always works so well..

.. she said sarcastically.

I can't think of a single instance of regime change that's had a good result.

Bolton can go to hell.

[Frank Cannon]

36. I'm sorry. John who?

You mean, that walrus-mustached nutball that lost his job as temp U.S. ambassador to the UN?

Can't the MSM elicit opinions from has-been losers who aren't quite as ridiculous?

[underpants]

37. I want a boat oar and a good run-up

THWAAAAAPP

Shut up you weird koook

[Thor_MN]

38. Sorry, Johnny, you have to finish the regime change you started before you can have another.

Spoiled freakin' brat. Someone needs to warm his backside with a wooden spoon.

[xultar]

39. OK Guys..This is funny as fuck.

[HuffleClaw]

41. "...as a last resort, military action"

last resort my ass. he's not fooling anyone.
