No one on the planet thinks or wants our current position to be sustainable. And while not sustainable, it is also not untenable.

Bolton is a total POS. But what he’s saying here looks to be true if you look at what’s happening and what Trump is saying day by day without being biased.

Trump is engaging in the largest globalist endeavor
Wrong answer. The Iran action is pushing the Global economy back towards American control, not away which is what Globalists want.

We aren't controlling Iran once this is over. It's likely China gets even more power over them after the fact.

Russia, Iran, China, and to a much lesser extent Venezuela and NK are the primary opponents to the West/Globalism.
*Were, in terms of Venezuela. We've possibly taken out that government in a prior globalist endeavor.

What do you think the goals of West/Globalism are?

Given the fact that "globalism/globalists" keep getting redefined, there are multiple options.
But what isn't at issue is the status of Russia, Iran, China, NK (and formerly Venezuela and Syria to a lesser extent) in comparison with that malleable concept.
That's why trying to redefine "globalism/globalist" yet again to include Iran as part or globalism is utterly retarded.

Bolton is a paid traitor

How the F would this loser know? He has zero sources.

Bolton is a fig. But he is correct for once.
Trump looks like a fool. We’ve won this “war” 15 times so far and completely opened the straight 12 times.

I don't like Bolton. I also don't think Trump is "confused"
I do think Trump doesn't have a good exit, is used to always having 5 options that he can claim as wins, and is basically just poking and prodding and trying and hoping something breaks that gives him a clear window to claim a win.
It's pretty similar to Ukraine and Palestine.

This is reminding me of Bush II Iraq war.
-Convince the public that we are at risk because of their WMD's/Nukes.
-Israel took out Iraq's nuclear plant, US/Israel supposedly took out Irans nuclear enrichment ability
-Overwhelm Iraq and Iran to topple leadership and hopefully get a favorable govt planted.
It feels the same here.
I for one, was for the Iraq war because of the WMD's and argued for it. I look back on that and believe I was wrong. I was at first ok with attacking Iran because I do feel they want nukes to threaten or use against Israel and maybe us. I'm starting to feel that we were roped into it by Israel and think this was not the right approach. It is not going to end with the objectives of the radical leaders being sent packing.

Not when they value the interests of our “allies” over our own. That’s essentially what every one of these turds are arguing for.
