Iran’s nuclear programme is “devoted” to destroying Israel, says Ambassador John Bolton, former national security advisor to Donald Trump

    "Their missiles are useless" "They might have nukes"

    Warmonger And one of the worst of the worst when it comes to warmongering at that. How did Iraq go mate?
  • @ashcarrier6606
    If you like flag-draped coffins at Andrews Air Force Base, then Bolton's your man.

    I genuinely would not right off Iran. I think they can create the Worse Case Scenario if they choose to.
  • I'm in my 50s and I've been hearing on the news since I was a kid that Iran is about to have nukes.... Any day now.
  • Sounds very like what he said in 2003 and with Iraq, and that worked out well. People have very short memories, he was one or the poster boys for war in Iraq. There is even less evidence of Iran having capability than with Iraq. I just hope it's fooled me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

    This is the guy that agreed with Netanyahu and told Congress that Iraq had WMD's. They didn't. He has been a national security threat for 30 years yet points the finger at Iran.
  • @AH--173
    We've heard this before. Remember the "45 minutes" threat?
  • @olivergard572
    You can never trust someone that WANTS to look like THAT.
  • @rick6672
    In 2050 we'll still be saying that Iran is weeks away from a nuclear bomb
  • There's not an original thought out of Bolton's head. He's a noisy drone hovering over humankind muttering -- War! War! War!
  • @alexp7274
    " War... What is it good for... Absolutely nothing! " " Bolton... What is he good for... Absolutely nothing!" Say it again
