Mike Waltz Ousted Over "Intense Coordination" With Netanyahu On Plotting War With Iran
President Trump ousted Michael Waltz as National Security Advisor not only due to Signalgate but also due to his "intense coordination" with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on pushing for war with Iran, according to the Washington Post.
President Donald Trump's decision to oust his national security adviser, Michael Waltz, was the product of a slow accumulation of frustration with a former Green Beret officer who was seen as far more eager to use military force than his boss in the Oval Office.
Waltz's fate was sealed by his inclusion of a journalist on a sensitive Signal group chat in March. But he had been clashing with other top officials since early in the administration, including over whether to pursue military action against Iran, senior officials and Trump advisers said Friday...
But Waltz also upset Trump after an Oval Office visit in early February by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, when the national security adviser appeared to share the Israeli leader's conviction that the time was ripe to strike Iran, two of the people said.
Waltz appeared to have engaged in intense coordination with Netanyahu about military options against Iran ahead of an Oval Office meeting between the Israeli leader and Trump, the two people said.
Waltz "wanted to take U.S. policy in a direction Trump wasn't comfortable with because the U.S. hadn't attempted a diplomatic solution," according to one of the people.
"It got back to Trump and the president wasn't happy with it," that person said...
The view by some in the administration was that Waltz was trying to tip the scales in favor of military action and was operating hand in glove with the Israelis.
"If Jim Baker was doing a side deal with the Saudis to subvert George H.W. Bush, you'd be fired," a Trump adviser said, referring to Bush's secretary of state. "You can't do that. You work for the president of your country, not a president of another country."
On Wednesday, Mike Waltz was photographed by a Reuters reporter using an Israel-made "obscure and unofficial version of Signal that is designed to archive messages," 404 Media reported...
An Israeli Channel 13 investigation came out earlier this week claiming the Biden administration never actually pressured Israel for a ceasefire and their claims to the contrary were all just theater for the public.
"God did the State of Israel a favor that Biden was the president during this period. We fought [in Gaza] for over a year and the administration never came to us and said, 'ceasefire now.' It never did. And that's not to be taken for granted," former Israeli ambassador Michael Herzog said.
