7.30 Report JOHN BOLTON: Well, I think that, to the extent that there is resentment that security is not what it was before, that economic development is not proceeding, that that is one of the sad consequences of the need for military hostilities to get rid of a totalitarian regime. JOHN BOLTON: Well, I think the fact that we have not found Saddam and his two sons, or not found convincing evidence that he's dead, has led many Iraqis to think that our presence will be temporary and that Saddam will return. JOHN BOLTON: We want to be prudent about this but the North Koreans have to understand they will not be allowed to ship weapons of mass destruction free of risk. www.abc.net.au /7.30/content/2003/s897754.htm

John R. Bolton - SourceWatch John Robert Bolton, who has served as the Undersecretary of State for Arms Control and International Security (sworn in May 11, 2001), and "whose strong statements on North Korea 's nuclear program irked the leaders in Pyongyang," was nominated March 7, 2005, by President George W. Bush as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. "Before joining the current administration, John Bolton was Senior Vice President for Public Policy Research at the American Enterprise Institute." Bolton was a member of the Council on National Policy in 1988.

USATODAY.com - Bolton a 'guided missile' John Bolton is considered an exotic specimen by some of his State Department colleagues. Bolton remains skeptical that Iran will abandon its weapons efforts and fought hard to toughen a resolution, approved last week by the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency, that threatens Iran with unspecified punishment if it is caught cheating U.N. inspectors again. Bolton managed to delay direct U.S.-North Korea talks, and just before six-nation talks finally got under way in Beijing in August, he called North Korea's leader a "tyrannical dictator" in a speech, enraging the North Koreans and reinforcing their doubts about U.S. willingness to reach an agreement. www.usatoday.com /news/washington/2003-11-30-bolton-usat_x.htm

Bolton Often Blocked Information, Officials Say (washingtonpost.com) John R. Bolton -- who is seeking confirmation as the next U.S. ambassador to the United Nations -- often blocked then-Secretary of State Colin L. Powell and, on one occasion, his successor, Condoleezza Rice, from receiving information vital to U.S. strategies on Iran, according to current and former officials who have worked with Bolton.

The Unofficial John Kerry Blog John F. Kerry is still the well-oiled President Bush -basher he was on the campaign trail last year, but he claims it is “too early” to say whether he will take another run at the White House in 2008. John Kerry’s newly released Form 180 records revealed yesterday that there were no deep, dark secrets hiding in Kerry’s previously unreleased military records as the Swift Boat Liars had claimed.

OpinionJournal - Featured Article Annan was sincere yesterday when he welcomed President Bush's decision to nominate John Bolton to succeed John Danforth as U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. As the media wasted no time in explaining, Mr. Bolton is a "hard-liner," guilty of such violations of diplomatic protocol as calling North Korea "a hellish nightmare" ruled by a "tyrannical dictator." More such violations will be required if Mr. Bolton was also responsible for the repeal, in 1991, of the 1975 Zionism is Racism resolution, championed by Uganda's Idi Amin. www.opinionjournal.com /editorial/feature.html?id=110006387

john bolton A senior Democratic senator said Monday John Bolton would be confirmed by the "tiniest" of margins as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, thereby sending a signal to the rest of the world that he lacked strong support at home. The U.S. Senate will confirm John Bolton as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations when it returns from a weeklong recess and Democratic requests for more information are "just an excuse" to further delay, Vice President Dick Cheney said on Monday.

John Bolton's Yellowcake - by Ray McGovern In sum, when Bolton realized that the Iraq-Niger report itself left most analysts holding their noses (even before it was established that it was based on crude forgeries), his office inserted the bogus story into the official State Department "Fact Sheet" without clearing it with the department's own intelligence analysts. Bolton's rogue operation ensured the subsequent embarrassment of one and all when the head of the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency, Mohammed ElBaradei, declared the reports "not authentic," forcing both White House officials and George Tenet to apologize. Briefly reported last week in Steve Clemons' The Washington Note was that a Congressional subcommittee, citing a State Department inspector general's report, found that Bolton ordered and received updates on the notorious "Fact Sheet" of Dec. 19, 2002, that claimed Iraq had been trying to procure uranium "yellowcake" from Niger. www.antiwar.com /mcgovern?articleid=5934

Bolton, who as a member of the Reagan administration had led the insider campaign to withdraw U.S. membership in UNESCO, had no scruples about recommending that UN moneys be used to fund a free-market, anti-communist “development” organization. Bolton is not only one of the administration’s leading hawks on China policy, he is also its strongest advocate of Taiwan ’s independence and of U.S. defense of Taiwan. www.irc-online.org /content/commentary/2005/0503bolton.php

Stop Bolton See Our TV Ad A few months ago, when John Bolton was nominated for UN Ambassador, nobody thought that there would be a fight. On March 7th, President Bush nominated John Bolton, who has dedicated his life to undermining the United Nations, to be our UN Ambassador. Bolton, however, has made a career out of belittling and dismissing the UN, suggesting at one point that “if the UN secretary building in New York lost 10 stories, it wouldn’t make a bit of difference.” He advocates a go-it-alone foreign policy that alienates our allies and strengthens our enemies. www.stopbolton.org

Confirm Bolton Mitchell’s primary arguments are that the claim that Iraq had attempted to procure uranium in Niger was not believable at the time the Fact Sheet was released, and that in any event the way John Bolton’s office operated demonstrates that the man is prone to intelligence failures. Reuters reports that, following a week-long recess, Senate Democrats are resolved to continue blocking a floor vote on John Bolton’s nomination.

War and Piece: But interestingly enough, just a few months after Bolton's December 2001 pyrotechnics killing the bioweapons treaty at the UN, US investigators came to believe that the anthrax attacks that had killed five Americans in October 2001 were the work of a US bioterrorist, one most likely connected to the US government bioweapons program. According to the Globe piece, Bolton's opposition to the BWC treaty was in part because he didn't want the US to have to submit to the kind of verification measures that would have strengthened it. Yet, in May 2002, during the now infamous row over the hardline Cuba speech he wanted to deliver at the Heritage Foundation, Bolton included in his original draft a proposal to place international inspectors in Cuba to ensure that it was not operating a BW program. www.warandpiece.com /blogdirs/001988.html   (3373 words)
