After Bolton ouster, five vie to be Trump’s fourth national security adviser
|
[IsraelTimes] US President Donald Trump
...The man who was so stupid he beat fourteen professional politicians, a former tech CEO, and a brain surgeon for the Republican nomination in 2016, then beat The Smartest Woman in the World in the general election...
said Wednesday he’s looking at five individuals to become his fourth national security adviser to replace John Bolton, the hawkish diplomat who clashed with the president on global challenges, especially Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and North Korea
...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche...
"John wasn’t in line with what we were doing," Trump told news hounds in the Oval Office.
Trump insisted that he had a good relationship with Bolton, but also said, "He wasn’t getting along with people in the administration that I consider very important."
"I hope we’ve left in good stead," Trump said. "Maybe we have and maybe we haven’t."
Trump did not name the five candidates, saying only that they were "highly qualified." Deputy national security adviser Charles Kupperman, a former Reagan administration official and defense contracting executive, is running the National Security Council on an acting basis. Trump said he would name a replacement for Bolton next week.
On Wednesday, at least three longtime Bolton aides resigned from the NSC staff: front man Garrett Marquis, adviser Sarah Tinsley and his scheduler Christine Samuelian.
Since joining the administration in the spring of last year, Bolton has been skeptical about the president’s whirlwind rapprochement with North Korea, and recently has become a vocal internal critic of potential talks between Trump and leaders of the Afghan Taliban

and Iran.
Muslim civil rights group CAIR ‘appalled’ by John Bolton’s interim replacement
[Jpost] The Council on American Islamic Relations said it was "appalled" that Charles Kupperman, who served on the board of a group that peddled conspiracy theories about Moslems, is serving as interim national security adviser.
"While we welcome the resignation of John Bolton, who has a long track record of promoting anti-Moslem policies and associating with hate groups, we cannot simply replace one Islamophobe with another," CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad said Wednesday, a day after Bolton’s abrupt departure from the post.
Kupperman served for a decade on the board of the Center for Security Policy, which peddles theories that Moslem Americans hope to institute Islamic religious law in the United States and have infiltrated American institutions and the government.
Kupperman, who is Jewish, is not likely to remain long in the job. President Donald Trump
 ...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...
has said he intends to name a new national security adviser, which does not require Senate confirmation, as soon as next week.
In addition, Bolton hired Kupperman earlier this year as deputy national security adviser because they were in alignment on the very policies that apparently led Trump to oust Bolton, including Bolton’s opposition to diplomatic engagement with Iran.
Kupperman, 68, has worked for Republican administrations for decades. In the private sector, he has been a consultant to defense contractors.
The Anti-Defamation League has said of CAIR that “much of its activity” is in exposing anti-Muslim bias, but this is undermined by an anti-Israel agenda.
