John Bolton Is Threatening Iran. Good.

Image
he latest news to rattle the Washington establishment is that John Bolton, President Donald Trump’s national security adviser, has asked the Pentagon for military options against Iran. The commentariat and the Democrats in exile are aghast and insist that such bellicosity will only invite belligerence from Iran. Many former Obama administration officials fear that Bolton’s truculence may lead Iran to resume its nuclear program. But the truth is that when dealing with Iran, threats usually work while blandishments only whet the appetite of the mullahs who run the country.

But they were neither forgotten nor silenced,” Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, president-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, said in a statement on the 30 th  anniversary of the massacre of political prisoners in Iran.

Many had finished their sentences and were li...
