Israel may have to take military action against Iran: Bolton
by Ron BoussoPublished: January 21, 2008
HERZLIYA, Israel (AFP) Former US ambassador to the United Nations John
Bolton said on Monday that Israel may have to take military action to
prevent its archfoe Iran from acquiring an atomic bomb.
Bolton also said that further UN sanctions against the Islamic
republic will be ineffective in stopping Iran's controversial nuclear
programme which Israel and the US believe is aimed at developing a
bomb -- a claim denied by Tehran.
"One can say with some assurance that in the next year the use of
force by the United States is highly unlikely," Bolton told AFP on the
sidelines of the Herzliya conference on the balance of Israel's
national security.
"That increases the pressure on Israel in that period of time... if it
feels Iran is on the verge of acquiring that capability, it brings the
decision point home to use force," he said.
The hawkish former diplomat said that after a US intelligence report
published late last year that claimed Iran had suspended a nuclear
weapons programme in 2003, the US was unlikely to take military action
against it.
"The pressure is on Israel now after the National Intelligence
Estimate because, I think, the likelihood of American use of force has
been dramatically reduced," he said.
Widely considered the Middle East's sole if undeclared nuclear power,
Israel considers Iran its number one enemy following repeated
statements by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for the Jewish state to be
wiped off the map.
Bolton said that military action against Iran should be taken before
Tehran acquires a bomb.
"The calculus in the region changes dramatically once Iran has nuclear
capability, meaning the preemptive use of force or the overthrow of
the Iranian regime has to come before they get the weapon," Bolton
said.
"If you are worried about an Iran with nuclear weapons and an extreme
theological regime in power, the time to take the plan of action is
before Iran acquires the weapons.
"Once it acquires the weapons there is a risk of retaliation with
nuclear capability and that's why Israel is in danger -- it is a very
small country and two or three nuclear weapons (and) there is no more
country. The pressure to act is intensive and the window of time
available is narrow."
Bolton also said that despite Iranian threats to hit hard if it is
attacked, "their response will be a lot more measured than people
think."
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert last week said that all options
were on the table to prevent an Iranian bomb. The Israeli military
last week also successfully test-fired a ballistic missile said to be
able to carry a non-conventional warhead.
Bolton said that a new round of United Nations Security Council
sanctions against Iran was "unlikely" and that Tehran would not be
deterred by further diplomatic sanctions.
"Maybe there will be another resolution but it will be even more
toothless than the previous two sanction resolutions... International
pressure through diplomacy of sanction has no chance of shifting
Iran's policies over the next year."
A senior Israeli security official said in reaction that "one should
listen very closely to what Bolton has to say."
