Top Neo-Con John Bolton told Fox News yesterday that the conflict in Gaza could lead to a U.S. attack on Iran as the former U.S. ambassador to the UN exploited the crisis to propagandize for a new war.
âSo while our focus obviously is on Gaza right now, this could turn out to be a much larger conflict,â said Bolton, adding that âweâre looking at potentially a multi-front war here.â
âI donât think thereâs anything at this point standing between Iran and nuclear weapons other than the possibility of the use of military force possibly by the United States, possibly by Israel,â added the former ambassador, suggesting that a strike on Iranâs facilities by Israel alone would be risky but could push Iran back by three or four years.
Boltonâs ceaseless fearmongering about Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon contradicts the U.S. intelligence communityâs own National Intelligence Estimate, which concluded that Iran abandoned its nuclear weapons program in 2003 and was highly unlikely to develop a nuclear weapon this decade.
Boltonâs implication that other Arab states would support an attack on Iran to prevent them from obtaining nuclear weapons, and in his own words âpop champagne corks,â is a ludicrous claim. Bolton is actually trying to suggest that Arabs celebrate when the U.S. attacks the Middle East. The invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan alone have stoked anti-US sentiment across the Middle East and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, far from being viewed as a dangerous tyrant, is seen as more of a âheroâ across the Middle East, according to a 2007 L.A. Times investigative report.
