3:01Now PlayingJohn Bolton has wanted to start a war with Iran for nearly 20 years, says Trita Parsi, founder and former president of the National Iranian American Council. On Tuesday, Bolton announced the U.S. is moving more military forces to the Middle East in a dramatic escalation of U.S. threats against Iran. Parsi says war with Iran is something Saudi Arabia, Israel and other U.S. allies in the region have wanted for a while, and they are hoping the United States military will "fight it for them." "As former Secretary of Defense Bob Gates said, 'The Saudis want to fight the Iranians until the last American.'"
