John Bolton

John Bolton
Let there be no ambiguity about the American view that Syria's lack of cooperation .. is not acceptable.

If you get a President (Hillary) Clinton, you might well find, just as after Vietnam, that there is a retraction from Iraq and of American influence in the world. And in a couple of years the Europeans will be complaining about that too.
John Bolton
