How John Bolton has helped Iran's fanatic Seyyeds

John Bolton is making sense | FP Passport
Over the past two or three years, we have been treated to one sensational threat after another about the likelihood of imminent war with Iran. All of these alarms and predictions have one thing in common: they never happened. Perhaps it is time for us to join Bolton in looking at the real indicators. When Bolton quits writing his jeremiads or when he begins to express satisfaction with the direction of U.S. policy, that is when we should start to get worried.
So are we seriously seening a shift in US policy, or is it that the US knows, that the Seyyeds are never going to change. We know that this flavour of Seyyeds, namely the IRGC, is very bitter, compared to the ones who run the foreign ministry. Ironically these Seyyed neocons are not too different from their US counterparts. But it took the likes of Bolton and of Cheney, to get the poodles of Jannati and Mesbah-Yazdi to come to power. Once these titans of the Seyyed Empire were in, and failed to move from their policy enrichment for the sake of their Mahdi cause, then the Seyyeds reform minded foreign ministry, gave up any form of sweeteners to the US. The die-hards had won the battle, and spear-headed a huge propaganda campaign to move towards China and Russia even more, as the US and UN sanctions forced EU corporations to quit. Just look at how the Russian Gasprom is so eager to pick up where Total of France leaves behind. So it is becoming quite clear, that the Seyyeds are going to be labelled as Chinese/Russian poodles. So it is up to the new US administration to deal with the Chinese and Russians with the appropriate threats to sort out the Seyyeds.

Bolton has no faith in Iran's Internal Opposition

Why is Bolton so negaitve about anything but all out war with the Seyyeds? What bother me really is how he has no faith in the internal opposition.

"Sanctions and diplomacy have failed and it may be too late for internal opposition to oust the Islamist regime, leaving only military intervention to stop Iran's drive to nuclear weapons, the US's former ambassador to the UN, John Bolton, told The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday.
