Glenn Greenwald nails him:
All over the world, countries have put terrorists on trial in their largest and most important cities — London, Madrid, Mumbai, Denpasar (the capital of Bali). That’s because their countries weren’t flooded by meek, frightened little men like John Bolton who want to send their fellow citizens to bomb and invade as many countries as they can find in order to conceal and compensate for the suffocating cowardice revealed by both his life and these comments. It’s a natural human instinct to try to prove to the world that one possesses exactly those characteristics which one most lacks — which is why right-wing warriors of the type represented by John Bolton are so desperate to prove their Churchillian courage and resolve, always from the safest and most risk-free distances.
