McMaster’s Former Group Scrubs — Then Re-Adds — Soros Financing From Website
Breitbart ^ | 08/08/17 | Aaron Klein

Posted on 08/08/2017 10:59:24 AM PDT by Enlightened1

The International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), where White House National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster is listed as being a member for eleven years, this week added George Soros’s Open Society Foundations and another Soros-financed group to the list of donors on its website in response to a Breitbart News request on the matter.

From September 2006 to February 2017, McMaster is listed as a member of International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), where he served as consulting senior fellow. The IISS describes itself as a “world-leading authority on global security, political risk and military conflict.”

A page on the IISS website titled “Our Funding” lists groups, corporations, and government entities that provide funding to the think tank, including during the period of McMaster’s work there.

From at least last week, when Breitbart News started an investigation of the organization, the active donor page on IISS’s website did not mention the Open Society Foundation among the list of contributors, even though an archived version of the IISS funders’ page listed the Open Society Foundations. And IISS has been listed on the Open Society’s website as a grantee of the Global Drug Policy Program of the Open Society Foundations.

Also missing from the website from at least last week was any mention of the controversial, Soros-funded Ploughshares Fund as a donor, even though Ploughshares’ own financial reports listed a donation to IISS. Like the Open Society Foundations, Ploughshares was listed on the archived version of IISS’s donor page.

On Sunday, Breitbart News sent ...

What’s with the 24/7 Breibart bashing of McMasters? I mean, what’s the point? The left would love to see Trump fire one of his generals.

I wish they’d knock it off.

Bannon V Mcmasters.

Meanwhile , Posobiec rumor about Drudge agreeing not to post about Mcmaster last week still seems to be holding.

Btw, you might want to really look at Mcmasters before you agree that he should be kept. For starters..putting a member of CAIR as the Director for Counter-terrorism.

Sorry but if McMasters is collaborating with George Soros..., then he has to go.

It was Jared Kushner and not Steve Bannon that did that.

So you are saying Kushner ask Drudge to not post Mcmaster stuff.

It would make no sense for Bannon to do it..thus the Bannon V Mcmaster comment.

Frankly, I don’t understand why Kushner would support Mcmaster given his views on Israel.

I can make no sense of the support of Mcmaster unless it is blackmail....or unless he really has those views too.

It’s not me that said it but Roger Stone. I heard him say it yesterday, here is his Tweet about it.

“i misspoke @InfoWars when I said @StevenKBannon w asked @Drudge not to post McMaster free-pass for Susan Rice - It was Jared Kushner”

It would make no sense for bannon to have done it.

I don’t know if it was Kushner but HIGHLY unlikely it was Bannon.

Yes, that is the question.

Anyone that thinks Mcmaster is a good fit really hasn’t done the research on him. Hard for me to believe that you think his policies are the correct ones..but maybe you do.

Steve Bannon is tied close to the Generals. Which is why Roger Stone first thought it was him. However, he was corrected that it was Jared.

Roger Stone is worried that the Generals may do to President Trump what Alexander Haig did to President Nixon. He pretended to be his friend, but was working behind scenes to remove him.

To sum it up Alexander Haig was a Globalist and mad at Nixon for wanting to exit Vietnam and peace with China. Although he never expressed it in public. Some suspect that Haig was Deep Throat too. I have heard that from several former spooks in the public domain. Who really knows. Sorry did not mean to rant on that.

Anyhow, I don’t feel good about McMaster the more I read about him. However, I do have a good feeling on General Kelly, Dunford and Mad Dog Mattis. All Marine Generals and hope I am not wrong.

There are so many red flags on Mcmaster it is astounding.

I can’t believe that he put a diversity outreach person for CAIR in charge of Counter Terrorism.

And then there is a the Susan Rice letter...

saw this on twitter

National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster, “I call the president the two-minute man.” (referring to how long the President can focus).

How long does it take, when you pick up a red hot horseshoe, to get rid of it?
