Bolton calls for "Libya model" to disarm North Korea

1. Well, I wasn't sure, but that confirms it. Bolton is not only radically hawkish, he's also stupid

if he thinks N. Korea has anything more than very superficially in common with Libya.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

2. Plus the Libya intervention is a kind of failure that is festering. . . . .nt

3. A "Libyan Model" for North Korean Denuclearization?

<One thing is clear: if the United States is to make progress in the denuclearization of North Korea, it would be well to avoid any reference whatsoever to Libya. In fact, a productive point of departure in preparing for talks with Kim Jong-un might be to determine how these talks are going to persuade Kim that moving forward on denuclearization will not produce a result like Libya.>

4. My thought exactly. Kim will never give up nuclear arms because he saw what happened to Gaddafi.

[Mr.Bill]

5. Does that mean if one American is killed in the process

we get to accuse Trump of murder and spend years beyond his term in office with endless Congressional investigations? I'm in!

6. Whenever Bolton eventually shuffles off this mortal coil...

Hopefully some curious pathologist will get a gander at this man's limbic system, just so see why he's such a flaming asshole.

Clearly he's too fucking mean, angry and hateful to ever think straight.

7. Libya??? The stupidest (and most terrifying to Kim) model anyone could posit

Also how did Bolton get security clearance with his Russia, Cambridge Analytica baggage.
