John Bolton
Diplomacy is not an end in itself if it does not advance U.S. interests.
John Bolton

John Bolton
I don't think there is any good answer to the question why shouldn't gays and lesbians who want to serve their country be allowed to do it.
John Bolton
I don't think Hamas will be satisfied simply ruling the Gaza Strip.
John Bolton

John Bolton
I think it's critical that we return national security issues to the center of the overall political debate in America.
John Bolton
