Just the sort of objective balance the US needs as it tries to move Israelis and Palestinians toward a solution?

Bolton Bring's Pro-Israel Record To UNMatthew E. BergerSpecial to the Jewish TimesMARCH 18, 2005Washington
In John Bolton, the Bush administration thinks it has found someone with a track record of taking on the United Nations and rogue states. And that is welcome news to Jewish groups and pro-Israel advocates.
Bolton, 56, was nominated Monday as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Now the undersecretary of state for arms control and international security, Bolton has gained a reputation as a tough fighter against Iran and other countries that have sought nuclear weapons. He also won the admiration of the American Jewish community in 1991, when as assistant secretary of state for international organizations he was the principal architect behind an initiative to repeal a United Nations resolution that equated Zionism with racism.
" He's really a hero of that effort," said Jess Hordes, Washington director of the Anti-Defamation League.
