(Jewish Insider) Dore Gold - In recent days, some groups have targeted U.S. National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster as insufficiently supportive of Israel and insufficiently tough toward Iran. In response, Dore Gold, former director-general of Israel's Foreign Ministry, emailed us: "With Tehran unveiling new centrifuges for enriching uranium, like the IR-8 that operates 15 times more efficiently than the old IR-1, I cannot imagine that a serious senior officer like McMaster is not disturbed about Iran. Moreover, I cannot imagine that a former CENTCOM planner would be oblivious to Iranian troops creating a corridor for themselves from their border with Iraq to the Mediterranean in order to dominate the Middle East." "Today, being concerned about this doesn't make him pro-Israeli alone, it would make him pro-Saudi, pro-UAE, pro-Egyptian, etc. Since we are all Washington's allies, it would make him pro-American as well. Thus, my sense is that these charges are baseless and we need to sit down and deal with more serious matters."
