John Bolton: Biden Admin Bears ‘Significant Responsibility’ for Iran’s Attack on Israel

‘It is an incredibly broad assault with cruise missiles and over 100 drones, and that’s all that we know of at this point’

EXCERPT:

BOLTON: "Yeah, I think the Biden administration bears significant responsibility for this Iranian attack by its, from the beginning, not appreciating that the Hamas assault on Israel on October the 7th was part of a larger Iranian strategy in the region called the 'ring of fire' around Israel. And now we’re seeing Iran itself get into it. I noticed that a lot of people are saying, well, it’s not clear — in some of the other network — it's not clear, maybe this is not an escalatory assault. It is an incredibly broad assault with cruise missiles and over 100 drones, and that’s all that we know of at this point. It could be more than that. So I think that the Biden administration should make it clear, not just rhetorically, but with active assistance for Israel, which I hope is being given, and to consider not only how to defend against this attack and whatever its final form is, but what Israel’s response is going to be. And I think it needs to be a very strong attack on Iran proper."
