More quotes by John Bolton
There's no such thing as the United Nations. If the U.N. secretary building in New York lost 10 stories, it wouldn't make a bit of difference.
John Bolton
We estimate that once Iraq acquires fissile material - whether from a foreign source or by securing the materials to build an indigenous fissile material capability - it could fabricate a nuclear weapon within one year.
John Bolton
I don't much believe in bumper sticker characterizations of foreign policy.
John Bolton
There is no patriotic obligation to help advance the career of a politician who is otherwise pursuing interests that are fundamentally antithetical to your values. That's not the call of patriotism.
John Bolton
I think some of this fascination with the 'Arab Spring' is just a grand experiment with Israel's survival.
John Bolton
People don't like to talk about victory and defeat anymore.
John Bolton
Don't get me wrong: I would love to be president.
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
Our biggest national security crisis is Barack Obama.
John Bolton
I am not a professional politician.
John Bolton
I'm not running around the world looking for ways to create hostilities.
John Bolton
Obama sees America as another country on the UN role call. Somewhere between Albania and Zimbabwe.
John Bolton
Everybody pursues their national interests. The only one who gets blamed for it is the United States.
John Bolton
It was right to overthrow Saddam Hussein. It was the regime itself that was a threat. I think in hindsight, what I would have done is turn authority back over to Iraqis much more quickly and say: Your country, you figure out how to run it.
John Bolton
There's no doubt that Iran funds and supplies Hamas with weapons.
John Bolton
Well, you could take several stories off the buildings of most U.S. government agencies and we'd all probably be better for it too.
John Bolton
Diplomacy is not an end in itself if it does not advance U.S. interests.
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
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
As you know, I have over the years written critically about the U.N. I have consistently stressed in my writings that American leadership is critical to the success of the U.N., an effective U.N., one that is true to the original intent of its charter's framers.
