From Friday’s intv w/ @AmbJohnBolton: “Article 51 in the U.N. Charter embodies what the text of the charter calls the inherent right of individual and collective self-defense. And that’s something we have stressed over and over again for Israel.
You know, I know you’re familiar with the saying people often call Israel the canary in the mineshaft when it comes to the United States, that people would like to criticize Israel or constrain Israel’s options both for its own sake and because they know ultimately
it’s the same argument to limit America’s ability to defend itself. So we’re very interested in maintaining the unfettered right Israel has of, and as the U.N. Charter itself calls it the inherent right of individual and collective self-defense.” hughhewitt.com/ambassador-joh…
