Kris Bauman...a piss poor excuse for a colonel in the United States Air Force

An Assessment Of An Assessment

The United States Air Force Colonel pictured below wrote a 237 page dissertation for his thesis paper at the University of Denver…with that and among other things, the university awards him his so called PHD.   We all know that a thesis paper is just another way of expressing an opinion or as I say, “An Assessment”.
My assessment of  Colonel Bauman’s 237 pages can be summed up in a few sentences.  His title, “Understanding Multiparty Mediation in the middle East Peace Process” is obviously an attempt bring about change but his dissertation clearly shows he knows nothing about Middle East history.  To blame Netanyahu for ‘inciting’ Palestinian terror is an obvious left-wing  propaganda statement that would please Colonel Bauman’s Commander in Chief, the notorious anti-American ever to con his way into the White House, Barack Hussein Obama (The thesis was written in 2009).  No matter how many so-called multi-party mediators attempt to solve peace in that area they will always amount in failure.  The Palestinians will always hate the Jews, the Jews have capitulated altogether too much of their sovereignty such that an ounce more would allow them to be eliminated from the face of the earth a promise made by those who support the Palestinians…and possibly Colonel Bauman.  The only way peace will ever be brought to the middle east is when one faction eliminates the other.  If Netanyahu took on the role of the Palestinians they would have been eliminated years ago.  So wake up Colonel and put in your retirement papers before Trump fires your insubordinate ass.  ~  Norman E.

NSC official blames Netanyahu for ‘inciting’ Palestinian terror

Colonel Kris Bauman

Kris Bauman, the newly appointed Israel adviser on the H.R. McMaster-led National Security Council, has a plethora of radical views when it comes to the Arab-Israeli conflict, siding mostly with extremist elements in Palestinian leadership over America’s closest Middle East ally.

In early May, Bauman joined the National Security Council. An Air Force colonel, he has rarely openly expressed his opinions on the Israeli-Palestinian divide, or other international affairs matters. Bauman previously served as chief of staff to Obama appointee General John Allen. He replaces Yael Lempert, who supporters of Israel claim has done immense damage to America’s relationship with Israel.
Conservative Review has acquired a copy his 2009 237-page Ph.D. dissertation from the University of Denver.
In his dissertation, Bauman blames Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu for “inciting Palestinian violence,” claiming the sitting head of state “derailed the peace process almost completely.”
For Bauman, the terrorist (Hamas) and terror supporting (Palestinian Authority) leadership of “Palestine” are not to blame for the lack of peace, but instead, the elected leader of a free, democratic society. On countless occasions, he places Israeli “settlers” and Palestinian suicide terrorists on equal moral footing in discussing the lack of peace between the two sides.
Concerning the U.S.-designated terror group Hamas, Bauman blames Israel for the Islamic jihadi group’s radicalism. Israel “refused to engage with Hamas and instead turned Gaza into an open-air prison,” Bauman writes of the failures to “moderate” Hamas.
Hamas, which stands by a charter that calls for the killing of Jews worldwide and the annihilation of Israel, “has signaled that it is prepared to operate with moderation,” the new NSC adviser adds, suggesting that Israel and the Middle East Quartet “should find a way to positively respond” to the terrorists.
Daniel Greenfield at Front Page Mag has explored several segments from the dissertation in more detail, highlighting the NSC adviser’s conspiratorial views on the so-called “Israel Lobby,” and his insistence that the U.S. should engage the terror group Hamas and include it as part of a future Palestinian state.
Greenfield points out that Bauman “extensively quotes Robert Malley,” the pro-Hamas Obama administration Middle East NSC official. Conservative Review has exclusively reported that Malley has been attending NSC meetings under McMaster.
Bauman is far from the only anti-Israel appointee to infiltrate the Trump administration, which has promised to “drain the swamp” of Obama holdovers. Michael Ratney, a John Kerry confidant who is one such example, is in charge of the State Department’s Israel-Palestinian portfolio.
