FOOKIN JOHN BOLTON!

Another Jew hating, Israel bashing resolution passed by the corrupt world body that ignores the Islamic Jihad of the Khartoum Government in Sudan, ignores the oppression of non Muslims in Muslim countries, ignores the mad ravings of Islamic Iran bent on annihilating the West, ignores the brutal killings in Indonesia, ignores their own peace keepers' acts of child rape and slavery - but the light unto nations? That is what they wish to extinguish.

What was it again the dhimmicrats have against Infidel Hunk of the Week, Ambassador Bolton?
Tell me again. Explain to me what it is they have against his extraordinary record of accomplishments. Go read Ben Johnson's indictment of our feckless leaders, over at Front Page Mag, "JOHN BOLTON, THE NEXT BLOOD SACRIFICE?"

If you don't BLOG FOR BOLTON you can't hang in the Atlas Sphere. That's the price of admission.

Someone wake the President. It's five minutes to midnight.

Bolton in extraordinary outburst against United Nations Calcutta News (Cartoon: Cox and Forkum hat tip Michael)

The U.S. Ambassador to the UN, John Bolton, launched a scathing attack on the United Nations Friday.

Bolton was furious over the adoption by the General Assembly of a resolution which said the assembly regretted the deaths of 19 civilians in an attack by the Israeli military in the town of Beit Hanoun last week.

Despite the resolution being significantly watered down at the behest of the United States, and being passing by 156 votes to seven, Bolton launched a blistering attack on the UN, and many of its members.

"Many of the sponsors of that resolution are notorious abusers of human rights themselves, and were seeking to deflect criticism of their own policies," he said.

"This type of resolution serves only to exacerbate tensions by serving the interests of elements hostile to Israel's inalienable and recognized right to exist."

"This deepens suspicions about the United Nations that will lead many to conclude that the organization is incapable of playing a helpful role in the region," Bolton continued.

"In a larger sense, the United Nations must confront a more significant question, that of its relevance and utility in confronting the challenges of the 21st century. We believe that the United Nations is ill served when its members seek to transform the organization into a forum that is a little more than a self-serving and a polemical attack against Israel or the United States," he said.

"The Human Rights Council has quickly fallen into the same trap and de-legitimized itself by focusing attention exclusively on Israel. Meanwhile, it has failed to address real human rights abuses in Burma, Darfur, the DPRK, and other countries," Bolton charged.

"The problem of anti-Israel bias is not unique to the Human Rights Council. It is endemic to the culture of the United Nations. It is a decades-old, systematic problem that transcends the whole panoply of the UN organizations and agencies," he continued.

The United States, and Australia joined Israel in voting against the motion, together with four small Pacific island nations. All countries in Europe, including Britain, voted to support the resolution.

The original text condemned Israel over the Beit Hanoun attack and its operations in Gaza, however the adopted resolution had the General Assembly expressing, "regret."

Rather than an outright investigation of the incident the assembly resolved to form a committee, "to look into the facts." The resolution also carried a demand that the Palestinian Authority take action to stop rocket attacks on Israel.

Bolton launched his attack despite gaining these concessions.

Equally critical was Israeli Ambassador Dan Gillerman who stormed out of the session after telling members, "I caution everyone who will support this resolution. By doing so, you will be an accomplice to terror. The blood of more innocents will be on your hands."

The resolution was taken to the General Assembly after the United States used its veto to squash a similar motion in the Security Council. It was the 31st time the U.S. had used its veto at the UN to stop resolutions concerning Israel and the Palestinians.

Gd bless that man. WTF would we do without him? Would no one stand up? I, for one, sleep better knowing that Bolton is preserver and defender of all that is good and true in America.

My kids call him J-Nuts-and-Bolts (how great is that?)

UPDATE: Bruce must have read my mind. I made the very same point over lunch. Why indeed? And Jim weighs in here.

UPDATE: Scott over at the mighty mighty Powerline weighs in here;

Like Mark Steyn's book (discussed below), John Bolton has a message. Indeed, it's a message that would resonate with the readers of Steyn's book, if only his message were deemed worthy of coverage in the mainstream media.

[...]...Ambassador Bolton's comments on the disgusting UN resolution condemmning Israel for the accidental death of 19 civilians in the course of its ongoing defensive operation in Gaza. Ambassador Bolton's comments, made in the United Nations on Friday, were reported by a news outlet based in Calcutta.

Ambassador Bolton's November 17 General Assembly statement has been posted in its entirety at the site of the United States Mission to the UN.

You're right Atlas, an "I Blogged for Bolton" ticket required here.

He's just too GOOD, too full of TRUTH, and too full of guts. Only people with something to hide don't want him.

He's the James Bond 007 of UN diplomacy.

(GRRRRREAT MOVIE by the way, Daniel Craig was the new Bond, but he was mimicking Bolton in ALL the scenes)

Whenever I see Bolton, John Bolton.. I hear the 007 theme music...

[tazzerman2000]

John Bolton is EXACTLY the kind of leader we need.. Straight shooting, clear eyed, solid titanium balls the size of grapefruits, honest and willing to call a spade a spade.

Could we ask ANYTHING more from this man?

I say, Bolon for president in '08. Rock on John. We've got your back...

No... Bolton is an abomination.

Scorpions? Well I guess you couldn't use rats, since the Nazis took that one for the Jews, but I suppose scorpions are good one if you want to paint others as subhuman. Did you study Goebbels or are you just a big admirer?

balz - yeah, to the Jihadist appeasing countries.

exphart - again witless childish insults towards Pamela - what is your problem?
