BREAKING: Top Trump Advisor Connected to George Soros. What Should Trump Do ?
(Christian News Alerts) – One of the greatest challenges President
Trump currently faces is dealing with administrators who do not share
his views on American policy. The president relies on the expertise of
long-time government officials, some of whose loyalties lie elsewhere.
Since adding H.R. McMaster to the administration, Trump and the
national security advisor have had their ideological differences. Now,
Breitbart has revealed that McMaster was recently employed at a think tank with ties to Hungarian billionaire George Soros, one of the biggest opponents of President Trump’s agenda.
From September 2006 to February 2017, H.R. McMaster was a member and
senior consulting fellow at the International Institute for Strategic
Studies (IISS), a think tank with offices in Washington, D.C.,
Singapore, and Bahrain.
According to its website, IISS has a mission “to promote the adoption
of sound policies to further global peace and security and maintain
civilized international relations.” However, IISS’s stances on major
foreign policy issues are at odds with the platform on which Donald
Trump ran his campaign.
Most notably, IISS supported the Obama administration-brokered Iran
nuclear deal and has denied charges that the Iranian government has
violated its end of the agreement. This is a deal which President Trump
has continually denounced.
Breitbart reports that the Iran deal bans US nuclear inspectors from
examining Iran’s nuclear sites and lifts sanctions that will ultimately
give them as much as $150 billion–money that Obama admitted would likely
be used to finance terrorism.
Not surprisingly, Trump called the Iran deal “the worst deal ever,”
as observed by The Hill. Nevertheless, the president re-certified the
deal last month, contrary to his repeated promise on the campaign trail
to nullify it.
McMaster’s presence in the White House gives further understanding as
to perhaps why President Trump has made such a great reversal on the
Iran issue. McMaster was one of the leading voices in Trump’s circle of
advisors urging the president to re-certify the nuclear deal.
McMaster has also been accused of purging the Trump administration of
officials who follow the president’s lead of taking a tough stance
against Iran. Just recently, McMaster removed Trump aide Ezra
Cohen-Watnick from the National Security Council, The Jerusalem Post
reports. Cohen-Watnick is one of the most notable anti-Iran hawks in the
White House.
NSA Advisor H.R. McMaster has ties to a think tank connected to
Hungarian billionaire George Soros. Do you think this affects his work
as National Security Advisor?
Other prominent aides removed by McMaster include Derek Harvey, who
held the Middle East portfolio at NSC, and Rich Higgins, who served as
the NSC’s director of strategic planning. In each case, McMaster has
replaced the Iran hard-liners with officials whose views on Iran more
closely align with his own–and with IISS’s.
Not only has IISS been critical of President Trump’s approach to
Iran, they also receive money from George Soros. IISS has received money
from the Ploughshares Fund, a controversial group that helped market
the Iran deal during Obama’s presidency. Ploughshares is in turn
financed by George Soros’s Open Society Institute.
The Daily Caller reveals how the Open Society Institute regularly
contributes to leftist political causes and candidates around the world.
It appears Trump’s America First policy is being thwarted at every turn
by his national security advisor. The president will soon have to
decide whether the experience McMaster brings to the table is worth
alienating his base and hindering his goals in the Middle East.
