Why would Iran knowingly goad the United States into a hot war? A war they have no chance of winning??? Does Bolton Need to Go??? Iran, China & The Trumpian Global Economic Collapse ....But the big question is, why would Iran knowingly goad the United States into a hot war? This is a war they have no chance of winning. Sure they may be able to kill thousands of Americans and Israelis in the process but the overall result will likely be devastating defeat. But what if winning a shooting war isn’t Iran’s objective?....  https://truthandlibertyblog.wordpress.com/2019/05/16/iran-china-the-trumpian-global-economic-collapse/ Yesterday's middle east war update: U.S. Withdrawing All Diplomats from Iraq https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/3221321 This looks like a an interesting article too: Bolton most dangerous man in world? BATTLE FOR WORLD / THE GUARDIAN | May 16, 2019: The article highlights that the United States is closer to starting war with Iran than it has been since previous administrations. And Bolton is largely to blame for this posture. President Donald Trump’s national security adviser John Bolton has been pushing for the United States to go to war with Iran even before he was assigned to his post. And many in the media are well aware of this because he has been talking about it for nearly two decades. Everything that the Trump administration has implemented in its Iran policy, particularly since Bolton became Trump’s top foreign policy adviser in April of 2018, must be viewed through this lens, including the alarming US military posturing in the Middle East of the past two weeks. Which is much welcomed and encouraged by the Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu. Just after one month on the job, Bolton has been a destructive force, giving Trump the final push to withdraw from the Iran nuclear agreement, which at the time was successfully monitoring Iran’s nuclear program and blocking its pathways to build a nuclear bomb. Bolton has no problem with manipulating or outright ignoring intelligence to advance his agenda (-- specifically, that of the Neocons and the Ziocons to create a greater Israeli in the Middle-East, and said if he had to lie, he would do it), which is exactly what’s taking place now to shape that future reality.  http://www.battleforworld.com/2019/05/16/john-bolton-evil-man/#BoltonWarMan Bolton Is Choking On Foreign Policy, Here's Who Should Replace Him It's been a bad year on the job for John Bolton. Whether it is blowing up the Hanoi Summit with a memo, embarrassing the US abroad by backing a Venezuelan coup which fizzled out or getting American forces into a potential war with Iran based solely on non-specific Israeli intelligence the National Security Advisor has shown himself to be unable to help President Donald Trump deliver on campaign promises but adept at creating a mess. Since assuming his position in April 2018, Bolton has dragged Trump, who ran on a platform of non-intervention and a re-haul of American foreign policy strategies, into a myriad of problems that have caused him to contradict his own agenda. This is the result of extreme incompetence if not outright sabotage. With Trump reportedly growing frustrated with Bolton, a new candidate for the job should be suggested. The President ought to consider retired Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor..... https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-05-15/bolton-choking-foreign-policy-heres-who-should-replace-him
