Duck and Cover

Now Iraq, Afghanistan and international terrorism are all done and dusted, John Bolton wants to bomb Iran: “This is a case where the use of military force against a training camp to show the Iranians we’re not going to tolerate this is really the most prudent thing to do.”

It's one approach, certainly, but not half as prudent as flying Bolton to Iran, strapping him down to a lump of metal (or failing that Dick Cheney), and dropping him smack on top of a trainee insurgent, preferably from the greatest height possible. The best bit is, if we kept splattering terrorists with neo-cons until there was not a single one left we could solve the problems of the Middle East at the cost of no innocent lives WHATSOEVER!

Not to mention the cost savings.

You'll only start a new arms race of dropping loonies out of planes. They'll retaliate by dropping mad mullahs on the terrorist training camp at Fort Benning. The US will go for a full Pat Robertson strike with Westboro Baptist Church carpet bombing in response, supported by inter-continental guided creationists.

The horror, the horror.
