“Let us be realistic about the U.N. It has served our purposes from time to time; and it is worth keeping alive for future service. But it is not worth the sacrifice of American troops, American freedom of action, or American national interests.”
– John Bolton, from the 1997 Cato Institute Tract Delusions of Grandeur.
