Keep John R. Bolton
the Permanent U.S. Representative to the UN
We are disappointed
to see Ambassador John Bolton submitting his resignation from his post as the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.

 

It is regretful to witness how low-end politics defeated the best interest of the United States and the few free democracies around the world.

 
History will judge John R. Bolton in parity with equally outspoken intellects such as Daniel Patrick Moynihan and Jeane Kirkpatrick.

John R. Bolton
Permanent Representative to the United Nations
Term of Appointment: 08/01/2005 to present


To: President George W. Bush

 

The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

 

Dear President Bush;

 

We the undersigned, maintain that in his current position as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Ambassador John Bolton brings tremendous experience, wisdom, expertise, courage, and finally, great honor to all of us. A tireless defender of our nation's values, advocating freedom, peace and security, he is also a great friend and defender of the State of Israel and Jews everywhere.

 

Many people may be surprised to learn that one of Mr. Bolton’s greatest triumphs occurred at the U.N. in 1991, while serving as assistant secretary of state for international organizations. Despite the views of his friends at the State Department, Mr. Bolton took the lead role behind the fight to get the UN to reverse Resolution 3379, the notorious resolution proclaiming, "Zionism is racism." On December 16, 1991, after six months of diligent work, determination and a lot of ‘Chutzpa,’ the unthinkable came about; UN Resolution 3379 was repealed by a vote of 111 to 25. Single-handedly, John Bolton achieved a tremendous victory for all of us.
 
Just a few days ago, on November 17, 2006, Ambassador Bolton delivered an historic and courageous speech at the UN General Assembly, stating:

"This problem of anti-Israel is not unique to the Human Rights Council. It is endemic to the culture of the United Nations. It is a decades-old, systemic problem that transcends the whole panoply of UN organizations and agencies. … the sponsors of today's resolution have diverted the efforts of non-political UN bodies … with one-sided polemics irrelevant and indeed harmful to the non-political mandates of these agencies, and unhelpful to the cause of the Palestinian people and regional peace. These efforts serve only to erode the credibility of the United Nations and undermine the goal of resolving the underlying conflict.

"The consequences of this persistent, unconstructive, biased approach are painfully clear - not one single Palestinian is helped and the United Nations continues to be discredited by its inability to confront the serious challenge of the Israel-Palestinian conflict in a serious, responsible manner."

History will judge him in parity with equally outspoken intellects such as Daniel Patrick Moynihan and Jeane Kirkpatrick.

Signed in support of nominating John Bolton the USA Ambassador to the UN.
