PRAGUE — Former U.S. national-security adviser John Bolton says Israel is entitled to retaliate against Iran for its weekend attack, including destroying its nuclear weapons program, and stands by his comment that President Joe Biden is “an embarrassment” for urging Israel not to respond.
In an interview with Current Time, Bolton said if Iran targeted the United States using hundreds of ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones as it did on April 13 against Israel, Washington would retaliate at a minimum by destroying the bases and facilities from which the attacks were launched.
“I am firmly of the belief that if the U.S. faced that kind of attack, there’s no doubt [what] we would do. Why should we deny the Israelis the right to…react the same way we would?”
