You thought that headline was an exaggeration, didn’t you?
It’s not.
NPR:
“Neither Iran nor any other hostile actor should mistake U.S. prudence and discretion for weakness,” Bolton said. “No one has granted them a hunting license in the Middle East.”
He spoke in Jerusalem alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Bolton said he is in the Middle East for previously scheduled meetings with Israeli and Russian security advisors. And he warned Iran that the U.S. remains a formidable adversary.
“Our military is rebuilt, new and ready to go,” Bolton said.
This is utterly insane.
Try to imagine a situation where an advisor to the president of any other country goes to another country to give a press conference with the second country’s leader and promises to use the military of his home country to start a war to forward the agenda of the foreign country.
Like, imagine an advisor to Shinzo Abe going to China and giving a press conference with Xi Jinping telling the Chinese that Japan is going to invade South Korea, and apologizing that they haven’t done it already.
John Bolton stood in front of an Israeli flag at a podium identifying him as an employee of the Prime Minister of Israel.
You couldn’t even satirize this.
Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is utterly impossible to parody a Jewish shill in such a way that someone won’t mistake them for the genuine article.
This is so incomprehensibly bizarre that it is difficult to even wrap your head around.
On Friday, Tucker Carlson called for John Bolton to be fired.
He said, “there is nothing normal about John Bolton,” and I lol’d.
I don’t think Bolton is going to be fired. And I don’t think Trump is canceling the war in Iran. Tucker says that if Trump had gone through with the strike on Thursday, he would have lost the 2020 election. But he also admitted that a war is initially good for poll numbers. So what Trump can do is wait until closer to the election to start bombing Iran.
Furthermore, unless Bernie gets the nomination (sadly, Tulsi and Yang have no chance), the Democrat is also going to be pro-war, which means that Americans are going to be deciding who will do the war better, not whether or not we should be in a war.
In fact, if Trump started the war before the Democrat primaries, then it would be good for Bernie.
I hope that Bernie makes the fact that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and all the rest of these people are war hawks central to his campaign strategy. Because I will endorse him over Trump, without question.
Trump has proven himself to be deranged and dangerous. Whether he is simply being manipulated by Jews – and I think this is the case – is totally irrelevant. Whatever is driving him, he is a lunatic who is going to start World War III because the Jews told him to do so.
