Meanwhile, UN Ambassador John Bolton has escalated talk of a possible US attack on Iran. The Guardian of London reported Monday Bolton issued the threat at a meeting with British parliamentarians last week. According to one participant, Bolton said: “They must know everything is on the table and they must understand what that means. We can hit different points along the line. You only have to take out one part of their nuclear operation to take the whole thing down.” At a speech at the annual gathering of the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee this Sunday, Bolton said the US must be prepared to: “use all the tools at our disposal to stop the threat that the Iranian regime poses.”
