Bolton Lays Out His Pro-Israel Strategy: Increase Political Support In The U.S. For Letting Israel Bomb Iran

What are those on the right like Bolton supporting? The former U.N. ambassador outlined his views today in the Wall Street Journal:

[Opinion leaders need] to increase political support for an Israeli strike against Iranian nuclear and ballistic missile facilities. [...] What outsiders can do is create broad support for Israel’s inherent right to self-defense against a nuclear Holocaust and defend the specific tactic of pre-emptive attacks against Iran’s Esfahan uranium-conversion plant, its Natanz enrichment facility, and other targets.

Indeed, the Weekly Standard’s Bill Kristol — a member of ECI’s leadership board — has been supporting and advocating a strike on Iran’s nuclear program for quite some time. So yes, Bolton is right, there is an “obvious disjunction” between ECI and the Obama administration’s policy; despite the debacle in Iraq, the former still appears to believe that war will achieve peace in the Middle East, while the latter has learned from the neocons’ mistakes in favor of negotiation and diplomacy.

He does not care for Iranians a bit. He only want Israel to be the only real power in the ME and thus terrorist i.r. must get wiped off. He is not interested what we Iranians want.
