National security adviser John Bolton set Iran on notice, telling the rogue nation that if it continued its aggression against the United States and Israel, that there would be “hell to pay.”
Bolton also warned Tehran that “we will come after you” with all the force of the full U.S. military and intelligence.
This is not your Barack Obama “diplomacy at all costs” administration. And it’s about time the United States, the greatest country in the world, started acting like the greatest country in the world — rather than the apologizing, cowering weak-kneed nation that Obama wanted to present.

President Donald Trump, above all, is an “America First” leader.
More from Fox News:
National Security Adviser John Bolton delivered a no-holds-barred warning to Iran at a major summit in New York on Tuesday, telling the regime in a fiery speech that “we are watching, and we will come after you” and that there will be “hell to pay” if it continues on its current course.
Bolton’s saber-rattling remarks came hours after President Trump, in his own dramatic address to the U.N. General Assembly, called on “all nations to isolate Iran’s regime as long as its aggression continues.”
Tensions have dramatically escalated in recent weeks between Iran and the U.S., as well as its regional allies. Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has claimed that an attack Saturday at an Iranian military parade, which left dozens of Iranian military personnel dead, was carried out by militants trained by Israel and the Gulf states, and supported by the U.S.
On Tuesday, a threatening video showing a simulated Iranian ballistic missile strike on Israel and Saudi Arabia was posted to the Twitter account of the semiofficial state Fars News Agency, before it was quickly deleted.
And a top military official in Iran warned the U.S. and Israel on Monday that there would be a “devastating” response to the parade attack.
In his speech to the United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) annual summit, Bolton took aim at the threatening rhetoric long used by Khomeini and other top Iranian politicians.
“According to the mullahs in Tehran, we are ‘the Great Satan,’ lord of the underworld, master of the raging inferno,” Bolton said. “So, I might imagine they would take me seriously when I assure them today: If you cross us, our allies, or our partners; if you harm our citizens; if you continue to lie, cheat and deceive, yes, there will indeed be hell to pay.” Applause broke out in the room.
He continued: “The ayatollahs have a choice to make. We have laid out a path toward a bright and prosperous future for all of Iran, one that is worthy of the Iranian people, who have long suffered under the regime’s tyrannical rule.”
Iran, Bolton said, “brazenly supports the criminal Assad regime in Syria” and was “complicit in Assad’s chemical weapons attacks on his own people.” He also called Iran the world’s “worst kidnapper of U.S. citizens.”
Bolton also dismissed the now-defunct Obama-era nuclear deal with Iran in no uncertain terms as “the worst diplomatic debacle in American history.”
Last month, the Trump administration restored major sanctions against Iran that had been suspended under former President Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal, threatening to further unravel the Islamic country’s already-struggling economy. Bolton on Tuesday said the sanctions had already had a “crippling” effect on Iran’s economy, and threatened to send its housing market into a recession.
The warning came as reports reveal Iran is still the world’s number one sponsor of terrorism.
From World Israel News:
The US State Department released an annual report on Wednesday confirming that “Iran remains the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.”
Commenting on the report’s findings, the department’s coordinator of counterterroism, Nathan A. Sales, stated, “[Iran] is responsible for intensifying multiple conflicts and undermining U.S. interests in Syria, in Yemen, in Iraq, in Bahrain, in Afghanistan, and in Lebanon, using a number of proxies and other instruments such as Lebanese Hezbollah and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp’s Quds Force.”
Sales noted, “The threats posed by Iran’s support for terrorism are not confined to the Middle East; they are truly global.”
While the report identifies a 23 percent decrease in the total number of terrorist attacks worldwide in 2017, with total deaths due to terrorist attacks decreasing by 27 percent, the report cautions that “this overall trend was largely due to dramatically fewer attacks and deaths in Iraq.”
With regard to geographical concentration of attacks, 59 percent of all attacks took place in five countries, Afghanistan, India, Iraq, Pakistan, and the Philippines, with 70 percent of all deaths due to terrorist attacks occurring in Afghanistan, Iraq, Nigeria, Somalia, and Syria.
Speaking specifically about the Iranian regime, Sales warned, “[It] brings to its terrorist activities the resources of a state. We have seen Iran’s and its proxies’ terrorist-related activities across the globe. There are active fundraising networks in places as far afield as Africa, [and] South America. We’ve seen weapons caches planted around the world. We’ve seen operational activity not just in Lebanon by Hezbollah, but by Iran-backed terrorists in the heart of Europe. Iran uses terrorism as a tool of its statecraft. It has no reservations about using that tool on any continent.
Sales continued, “And as far as Iran-backed terrorist organizations are concerned, we’ve arrested a number of operatives who allegedly were casing targets in support of Iran-backed terrorist organizations and they’re now facing charges in federal court.”
In addition to data on Iran, the report also discusses “a number of major strides that the United States and our international partners made to defeat and degrade terrorist organizations in 2017,” including work “with allies and partners around the world to expand information sharing, improve aviation security, enhance law enforcement and rule of law capacities, and to counter terrorist radicalization with a focus on preventing recruitment and recidivism.”

Trump Boosts Christian Share of Refugees Up to 71 Percent
By John Binder September 18, 2018
President Donald Trump’s administration raised the Christian share of the refugee inflow from under 50 percent in 2016 up to 71 percent in 2018, according to a chart posted by Axios.
The Christian share rose as Muslim refugee resettlement was cut by more than 92 percent compared to former President Obama’s 2016 resettlement total. The Muslim share dropped from 50 percent to 15 percent.
Since the beginning of 2018, Trump’s Department of State has admitted 2,341 Muslim refugees to the United States. In 2016, Obama admitted 30,201 Muslim refugees for settlement across the U.S.

Wars are expensive and Trump won’t spend the money unless the situation is a disaster. Bolton understands Islam and what it really is. It’s refreshing to see that in government after all the quisling dhimmis And the only other reliable ally on this Islamic war thrust upon the west ….is….Israel.

Bolton is a neocon. He’s from the same group of neocons who lied us into the war in Iraq, and now he’s trying to get us involved in a war against Iran. IMO, Bolton is working for the Zionists, as is Trump. We have no government.

First of all, the Neocons are anything but “conservatives.” They are demonic, warmongering psychopaths. Second, a Google search, using “Israeli support of ISIS” came up with 8,060,000 results (0.36 seconds). If you read through the articles, you will find more than enough evidence supporting an Israeli/ISIS alliance. In fact, a former Israeli defense minister has confirmed Israeli collaboration with ISIS in Syria: https://www.richardsilverstein.com/2017/04/23/breaking-former-israeli-defense-minister-confirms-israeli-collaboration-isis-syria/

Have you ever noticed that ISIS has never attacked Israel? And the one time that they did, they apologized. Do a Google search, using “ISIS apologizes to Israel.” I got 1,020,000 results (0.37 seconds).

If Israel is using one enemy of Israel to kill another enemy of Israel that is just stratagy. Helping both your enemies to kill each other is smart. You are not. And there are lots of Islamic Jihad organizations that have not attacked Israel, but that doesn’t mean they wouldn’t if they could or that they don’t support fully the total destruction of Israel. I don’t know of one that doesn’t.

So “the end justifies the means?” That is totally wicked and immoral. If the Israelis want a “greater Israel,” let them fight their own goddamn wars. IMO, you should renounce your U.S. citizenship, move to Israel, have yourself circumcised and join the IDF. If your loyalty is to Israel, then go there. Live there. Make your dreams come true there. But if your loyalty is to the United States, then don’t advocate fighting endless wars for the religiously insane, humanity hating, racist nation of Israel. We don’t owe the goddamn Israelis anything. They’ve never done anything but betray us.

That is my concern with Bolton. He likes to flex his muscles for WAR.
He’s a GWB guy.
Bolton has been called a “war hawk” and is an advocate for regime change in Iran and North Korea and repeatedly called for the termination of the Iran deal. (THAT WAS GOOD) He was a supporter of the Iraq War and continues to support his decision. (WRONG)He has continuously supported military action and regime change in Syria, Libya, and Iran. (NO THANKS) A Republican, his political views have been described as American nationalist, conservative, and “neoconservative”.Bolton rejects the last term and called himself “pro-American” instead.

Agree . Going to war based on video made by Al-qaeda affiliates was height of stupidity.
It took Israelis to expose truth about Palestinian fakery and Lies and boy was Trump furious when he realised how he had been conned http://bit.ly/2rOmfyJ

Of course they can go after them without a N bomb. Have you forgotten, iraq? A country of equal power of Iran. And they don’t really have to go in. They can rain down death from the sky with stealth missiles. The mullah’s would have to live their lives in bunkers.

so what is Trump waiting for ? sign from sky ?
or that sanctions will work ? It will only affect ordinary citizens in Iran (at lest 40% of whom hate the mullahs) and worse every other country and their citizens will suffer due to inflated oil prices solely created by this broad based “sanctions”
will it change the regime ? Did sanctions work to change regime in cuba ? No.
sanctions on venezuela has only worsened food shortages for masses not to govt. There is exodus to neigbouring countries and citizens of those country are attacking them for coming over and taking away their jobs or theft !!
And Trump thinks sanctions work ? Its only spreading misery among the citizens of these countries not the govt/elites

I’ve heard the argument of “oil prices” and ireen sanctions bullsh-t TOO many times. Look at a crude oil chart (West Texas delivery) and see the fifteen to ten dollar, per bbl, oil … in the times of the most severe ireen sanctions.

The price of West Texas Intermediate Crude, Friday’s settle, was 73.25 per bbl. RBOB (New York Harbor Delivery Regular Unleaded Gasoline) was 2.0857 per gallon.
In NO way, shape or form, will any embargo against ireen ad more than two bucks, per bbl. to the price of crude. And that would be a very short-lived price increase …. if it would even be that.
Only a blithering idiot would state 10-15 dollars.

The world’s benchmark, upon which all pricing is gauged, and hedged, is Texas intermediate, you BLITHERING IDIOT. Compare daily trading volume of Brent v NYM futures.
After the sanctions, for oil exports from ireen, were lifted, Texas intermediate traded between 94-112 for quite some time.
Why are BLITHERING IDIOTS always spouting lies, over something that they know NOTHING about.
As earlier recommended, LOOK AT A CHART. However, I would hazard a guess that you are FAR too stupid to read one.

I disagree with you. How many killings were there between Hindus and Muslims. Because of there hate India gave a piece of their land for peace to Muslims and that’s called Pakistan. Of course there are Muslims in India and still internal problems, but there few Hindus in Pakistan. If you would read history you would also know that when we were winning in N. Korea, China entered the war and we would lose too many lives. When the Japanese empire was dismantled at the end of World War Two, Korea fell victim to the Cold War. It was divided
into two spheres of influence along the 38th parallel. The Americans
controlled south of the line – the Russians installed a communist regime
in the north, later ceding influence to China.

Let’s start with Korea. At Yalta, Churchill vehemently stood against dividing it. He stated (paraphrased) you cannot take a people and land, with a written history as long as any other nation on earth; a people that have many times been invaded by have never invaded another … You cannot split them apart. Demonspawn patted Churchill on his knee, looked over at his (Roosevelt’s) spirit brother, Joseph Stalin, and said (this is a verbatim quote), “Winnie had a bad night.” Then, that foulest of all foul demons (Roosevelt) reached across the table, took Stalin’s hand and said, “Done!” Roosevelt CREATED the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. The United States of America is responsible for having “made” North Korea.
Now, on to injuh. The moslems overran it and murdered hundreds of millions of injuns. Yet, according to India’s census, as of 2011 there are 138,188,240 Muslims in India. That number is believed to have increased by a very substantial amoun as of today. The new Hindu party (one of them), Bharatiya Janata, has taken a very hard line stance. Although, their hardline has consisted, to date, of going into Christian villages, burning churches filled with people, raping Christian women, grabbing and torturing young Christian boys … and hosts of other atrocities. However, they have done NOTHING to the mohammedans, except bow down before the moslems .. and kiss their ass.
