John Bolton, America’s ex-ambassador to the United Nations, has called for US air strikes on Iranian camps where insurgents are trained for war in Iraq.

Mr Bolton said that striking Iran would represent a major step towards victory in Iraq. While he acknowledged that the risk of a hostile Iranian response harming American’s overseas interests existed, he said the damage inflicted by Tehran would be “far higher” if Washington took no action.

“This is a case where the use of military force against a training camp to show the Iranians we’re not going to tolerate this is really the most prudent thing to do,” he said. “Then the ball would be in Iran’s court to draw the appropriate lesson to stop harming our troops.”

Mr Bolton, an influential former member of President George W Bush’s inner circle, dismissed as “dead wrong” reported British intelligence conclusions that the US military had overstated the support that Iran was providing to Iraqi fighters.

Bolton is a war criminal and traitor to this country. He should be taken out and given a taste of old style western justice.

I think John Bolton is a little too radical as a political voice, but he made a damned good UN ambassador.

If you haven't noticed, wars are a little different then they were during WW II. Iran has amassed great wealth and has highly educated and skilled people every where. Close the straight would send oil prices sky rocketing and we'd face terror attacks like never before.

We won't be able to just remove our troops from Saudi Arabia like we did when OBL threaten us. We'll be faced with a generation of war that you obviously can't imagine.
