Bolton to Israel: Attack, It's Your Right

Former U.S. Ambassador to UN says Obama will not attack Iran, so Israel has to do it.

This is John Bolton

John Robert Bolton (born November 20, 1948) is an American lawyer and diplomat who has served in several Republican administrations. Appointed on a recess appointment, he served as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations from August 2005 until December 2006.[1] He resigned in December 2006, when the recess appointment would have otherwise ended,[2][3] because he was unlikely to win senate confirmation.[4][5]

Bolton is currently a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), frequent op-ed contributor to the Wall Street Journal and the National Review, Fox News Channel commentator, and of counsel to the law firm Kirkland & Ellis, in their Washington D.C. office.[6] He is also involved with a broad assortment of other conservative think tanks and policy institutes, including the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA), Project for the New American Century (PNAC), Institute of East-West Dynamics, National Rifle Association, U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, and the Council for National Policy (CNP). Known for his strong views on foreign policy, often equating diplomacy with weakness and indecisiveness,[7] Bolton is often described as a neoconservative,[8][9][10] though he personally rejects the term.[11]
It's quite obvious that he has a personal agenda, and yet the United States government, still authorized him to represent us, as a NATO ambassador
The uncouth question is:WHY?
The United States government has been infiltrated with many more that hold the same personal agendas that John Bolton does.
It's integrity has been compromised, and continues to be so, to this day.

House OK's possible Israeli raid on Iran

http://presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=136016§ionid=351020101

Our top Military brass are against this promotion with good cause, but the "House of Reps" wants to shit stir anyway. The Senate just had a hell of a time getting funding for the extra troops in Afghanistan, where in the hell does the "House" think that it's going to scrape up any more to fund another war front?

Republicans in the US House of Representatives have introduced a measure that would green-light a possible Israeli bombing campaign against Iran.

Resolution 1553 provides explicit support for military strikes against Iran, stating that Congress backs Israel's use of 'all means necessary' against Iran, "including the use of military force," BBC Persian reported.

The introduction of the measure coincides with a pattern of renewed calls for military strikes that have escalated since President Obama signed Congressional Iran sanctions into law.

top US military leaders have warned of the many dangers of military strikes against Iran.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates has argued "Another war in the Middle East is the last thing we need. In fact, I believe it would be disastrous on a number of levels."

Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has expressed his own serious reservations about an attack on Iran.
