1. There's enormous risk of escalation here which will be violent and potentially cost lives. John Bolton no longer works at the administration but yesterday, he praised U.S. airstrikes against Iranian-backed Shia militants. @NarativLive
2. And today, Bolton appears to be suggesting retaliation against the militias who stormed the Embassy as a result of those airstrikes. @narativlive
3. Trump has squandered a lot of goodwill within America's alliances. Today's events could escalate and the situation is fraught with risk. We need to deescalate. @narativlive wapo.st/36dWlpl?tid=ss…
@NarativLive 4. "I'm very concerned that the Trump admin's response is to escalate ... almost certainly will be in the form of violence and kinetic action." More airstrikes are possibly on the way and could hit targets inside Iran itself. @NarativLive reason.com/2019/12/31/u-s…
@NarativLive To clarify Bolton seems to be suggesting U.S. retaliation inside Iran.
