The proposed resolution says Israel's occupation is "illegitimate," said Bolton, and "therefore it has no land to give back in exchange for peace. Contrary to what the Obama administration has said, this puts a huge thumb on the scale against Israel."
Further, Bolton said, the consequences of the revolution will be felt for many years in negative ways for both Israel and the United States.
There has been a great deal of bipartisan pushback against the decision to abstain from the resolution, but Bolton said it was "entirely foreseeable" that Obama took the action he did.
And even with the resolution, there is "not a chance" Israel will quit developing in the West Bank region, and "nor should they,"s aid Bolton.
"I do think, contrary to what Obama says, this is the death now of the two-state solution," Bolton said. "It shows once again it's fundamentally unworkable, and I think Netanyahu and a nearly unanimous Israeli opinion will support him on that."
When it come to the United States, he continued, "it's time to stand up for principle."
"I've certainly advocated for a long time, which is votes in the united nations should have consequences," said Bolton. "We've got two issues here, the 14 countries that voted in favor of the resolution and the United Nations as a whole."
Bolton continued that he'd recommend that Trump call the resolution "illegitimate" and say the United States will try to repeal it, and if that fails, cut the U.S. contribution to the UN.
