Bolton Speaks Music to Our Ears

US Secretary of Defense James N. Mattis greets National Security Adviser Designate John R. Bolton at the Pentagon

John Bolton has long been a friend of Israel and traveled to the region this week to discuss Iran. In his press conference with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, Bolton referred to the JCPOA as “wretched,” adding that President Trump has made stopping Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons a priority. “It’s why President Trump withdrew from the wretched Iran nuclear deal. It is why he is reimposing economic sanctions,” said Bolton.

Music to our ears. At least to those who wish to stay alive to see another day. And isn’t that just about everyone?
