John Bolton

John Bolton
There's no doubt that Iran funds and supplies Hamas with weapons.
John Bolton
Let there be no ambiguity about the American view that Syria's lack of cooperation .. is not acceptable.
John Bolton
I don't think I would have to run a campaign that's financed like General Motors.
John Bolton
Obama sees America as another country on the UN role call. Somewhere between Albania and Zimbabwe.
John Bolton
Don't get me wrong: I would love to be president.
John Bolton

John Bolton
I think some of this fascination with the 'Arab Spring' is just a grand experiment with Israel's survival.
