More quotes by John Bolton
People say you favor assassination, what do you think war is? Except that it's assassination on a much larger scale, a much more horrific scale.
John Bolton
Don't get me wrong: I would love to be president.
John Bolton
I think some of this fascination with the 'Arab Spring' is just a grand experiment with Israel's survival.
John Bolton
Everybody pursues their national interests. The only one who gets blamed for it is the United States.
John Bolton
I am not a professional politician.
John Bolton
Swapping Bergdahl for illegal enemy combatants (terrorists, in common parlance) signaled unmistakably to Taliban and al Qaeda that Obama is determined to withdraw from Afghanistan no matter what the cost to the United States or those in Afghanistan fighting to remain free.
John Bolton
North Korea is going to get away with keeping its nuclear weapons.
John Bolton
I don't think Hamas will be satisfied simply ruling the Gaza Strip.
John Bolton
The only way to resolve the North Korean problem is to change the regime.
John Bolton
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
I don't much believe in bumper sticker characterizations of foreign policy.
John Bolton
There's no such thing as the United Nations.
John Bolton
Just like Sept. 11, only with nuclear weapons this time, that's the threat. I think that is the threat. I think it's just facing reality. It's not a happy reality, but it's reality and if you don't deal with it, it will become even more unpleasant.
John Bolton
I've been in the government bureaucracy, I've practiced law, I've done a lot of different things.
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 wouldn't give up on Russia. I think they have legitimate security concerns from Islamic fundamentalism, not only on their border but in their country.
John Bolton
The Republican Party is the party of national security. There's hardly a national security wing of the Democratic Party anymore. So if we turn away from it, that'll be a big problem.
John Bolton
The European arguments against the Iran-Libya Sanctions Act demonstrate that some Europeans have never lost faith in appeasement as a way of life. It is clear that Iran is cynically manipulating gullible (or equally cynical) Europeans to advance its development of weapons of mass destruction.
John Bolton
If Iran obtains nuclear weapons, then almost certainly Saudi Arabia will do the same, as will Egypt, Turkey and perhaps others in the region.
John Bolton
I've been surrounded by some of the best economic minds in the country, and hopefully I've absorbed some of that.
