He said that unless Iran sees a powerful deterrence from Israel, attacks will continue. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe way you reestablish deterrence is not proportional, that\u2019s academic talk,\u201d Bolton said. \u201cThe way you establish deterrence is by telling your adversary \u2018if you ever try that again the price you will pay will be so much higher than any gain you think you can get you shouldn\u2019t even think about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/Israel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Israel<\/a> has a wide range of potential targets.

Next, you might go after headquarters of the regular military and the revolutionary guard.

Bolton said Biden\u2019s approach makes him \u201can embarrassment to the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Joe Biden, as some press reports have it, is urging the Israelis not to retaliate at all, he is an embarrassment to the United States,\u201d Bolton said. \u201cThis is in the American interest to make sure that Iran, which is the principal threat to international peace and security in the region, is at a minimum put in its place to spare Israel, to spare the Gulf Arabs, to spare us from the threat they pose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title><strong>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>At a recent campaign event, former President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Donald Trump<\/a> said he would have handled the unfolding situation in the region better than President Biden.
