John Bolton calls on Biden administration to strike Iran directly to ‘send more messages’
Hindustan TimesJohn Bolton, a former national security advisor, appealed to the Biden administration to approve direct strikes on Iran in order to "send a message" in response to Jordan attack that killed three American soldiers. Former US national security advisor John Bolton Bolton stated that the US military's retaliatory attacks on Friday were the “right thing to do”, but he also expressed doubt if they would be sufficient. ‘Just not a significant enough retaliation’: Bolton During his Friday's interview, Bolton went on say that the approach chosen by the United States was “just not a significant enough retaliation.” He also targetted the Biden administration for acting inadequately "throughout this crisis," which started on October 7 when Hamas launched an unexpected offensive into Israel, starting the current Gaza conflict. Meanwhile, Bolton took to Twitter to react on latest US strike at militias in Iraq and Syria, asserting that “Biden's failure to establish any degree of deterrence against Iran culminated in today's actions.” Biden vows to continue airstrikes, Iraq reacts After the US strike, President Joe Biden said a statement that the air strikes would continue “at times and places of our choosing.” “The United States does not seek conflict in the Middle East or anywhere else in the world,” Biden said.
