I was not too concerned about him actually starting some new military action until Bolton came on board. Now I have no idea what they are going to do.
Since Fox News loves tough talk and big military spending I am guessing we will end up taking some military action to attempt regime change.
Yes, Bolton seems to be pushing these Iran moves in his direction--the forced regime change he has argued for for almost two decades.
But I agree with Walt. The consequences would like destabilize the region, lead to another unnecessary war--this one much bigger than Iraq, and much more costly in terms destroying generations of U.S. diplomatic achievement.
