Now think of this for a minute. Hitler hated the Jews yet he was Jewish. Taco dude from Colorado hates Hispanic because most likely he has Spanish blood. Bolton is crazy and hates Iran has he been rejected in love by a Iran woman or is he a nut case. All three of the above have direct reasons for their hate, now history will find the answer as it did with Hitler.
Bolton might be a cross breading project because he is totally out of his mine.
