U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton, speaking at a convention of
Jewish-Americans, said it is too soon for the U.N. Security Council to impose
sanctions on Iran but other countries are talking about doing so and
Washington is "beefing up DEFENSIVE MEASURES to cope with the Iranian nuclear
threat."

"The longer we wait to confront the threat Iran poses, the harder and more
intractable it will become to solve," Bolton warned.

He said Iran poses a "comprehensive threat" as a state sponsor of terrorism as
well as a nuclear aspirant and so "we must be prepared to rely on
comprehensive solutions and use ALL THE TOOLS AT OUR DISPOSAL to stop the
threat that the Iranian REGIME poses."

Bolton reaffirmed that the United States does not see the security council
moving quickly to impose sanctions on Iran, but he pointedly noted that "many
other governments have begun to include the word sanctions in their discourse
on Iran," implying they may take action OUTSIDE THE SECURITY COUNCIL.

Nothing really new here. But it is amazing (and disgusting) how much the
leading US politicians attend these Zionist coffee events, and how their
topic always is how the US will tweak its foreign (and military)
policies to better support the state of Israel. No other country in the
world has such extreme influence on any of the major nations.
