Top US security aide: Iranian threat is deterred for now
 [Rudaw] Quick action by the United States deterred an escalation in tensions between Washington and Tehran, argued US National Security Advisor John Bolton on Thursday."I don’t think this threat is over, but I do think you can make at least a conditional claim that the quick response and the deployment and other steps that we took did serve as a deterrent," Bolton told news hounds during a visit to London. He hinted that the United States may present evidence to the UN Security Council proving Iran was behind this month's oil infrastructure attacks in the Persian Gulf.
