Trump announced on March 22 that he replaced H.R. McMaster as National Security Adviser with the prominent “hawk” and former US ambassador John Bolton. Bolton is a well-known critic of Iranian nuclear deal and Israel supporter.
Shaul Mofaz, former Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defense Forces and ex-Minister of Defense, has revealed his experience of working with newly appointed US National Security adviser, John Bolton, during a conference hosted by Yediot Aharonot on March 26, reports The Jerusalem Post.
“I have known John Bolton since his days as US ambassador to the United Nations. He tried to convince me that Israel must attack Iran,” Shaul Mofaz said.
He noted, however, that he did not believe such a move would be wise, not for the US, nor for “anyone,” unless Iran’s threat becomes real. He added that the threat is already significant with Iran being present at the country’s borders with Syria and Lebanon.
