John Bolton: Bomb Insurgent Training Camps in Iran
President Bush??s former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton is calling on the U.S. to bomb the camps in Iran where insurgents are training to fight in Iraq.
??This is a case where the use of military force against a training camp to show the Iranians we??re not going to tolerate this is really the most prudent thing to do,? Bolton said in remarks reported by The Telegraph in Britain.
??Then the ball would be in Iran??s court to draw the appropriate lesson to stop harming our troops.?
Bolton acknowledged that a strike could spark an Iranian response harming American interests overseas, but insisted that the damage inflicted by Iran would be ??far higher? if the U.S. did not act.
An American military spokesman disclosed last week that the Quds Force of Iran??s Revolutionary Guards was using personnel from Lebanon??s Hezbollah to train fighters from Iraq??s Shiite militias.
Col. Donald Bacon said fighters captured in Iraq told interrogators that thousands of Iraqis were training in Iran.
The main training camp is located near the town of Jalil Azad, The Telegraph reported.
Last week the Iraqi government sent a five-member delegation to Tehran to meet with the Quds Force commander to plead for an end to Iranian involvement in Iraq.

Their country is being occupied man! There are going to be people who are going to help, just like people would help the US. This should get interesting considering we are nice and close to an election. Maybe this attack could look good for John and the Republican party. Besides, why not fight another war we are already broke from this war. :thumbsup: I didn't see anywhere in that article about the interrogation methods used...did you?

God no....This is the LAST thing our armed forces need to do at this point in time..They wouldn't be arming insurgents if we didn't give them a reason to. I think if those people were taking over canada I'd be trying to kill them as well, so that I could keep them out of my country.

I doubt the only reason is out of pity and sorrow. Do you really think we need to make a move this serious over it?

We're there to help the Iraqi government until their strong enough to do on their own. We accepted this responsibility when we invaded whether we like it or not. There have been meetings, diplomacy, etc...on this issue between all the parties involved but yet Iran allows this to happen within' its borders.
It's not just U.S. troops that suffer because of Irans actions, or lack of, but the Iraqi military AND civilians. This region of the world has a thing about weakness....by allowing this to go on makes us look weak in their eyes. At this point, I really see no other option.

This isn't a time for our masculinity to start taking over. We need to make intelligent decisions, and this wouldn't be an intelligent decision. There are those who want us over there, but there are also those who want us over there for selfish reasons. Now those who can only see black and white see this as something that has to be done. They start taking an approach of this is the only thing left to do. Those of us who know there is a gray side know this doesn't have to be done.

Yeah that would really be smart. Do an act of war on another nation without any provocation. I'm pretty sure thats what got us into the Iraq mess.

Killing U.S. Military Personnel and Iraqis isn't provocation?
