Trump appointed an Islamophobe to a high post
Sebastian Gorka, known for his anti-Muslim views, received a high post in the Trump administration.
Former Trump administration official Sebastian Gorka, known for his anti-Muslim statements, has been appointed to a high post in the new administration. Gorka, the son of Hungarian immigrants, has repeatedly claimed that the majority of terrorists in the United States are Muslims, and has also expressed hostile views towards Muslim immigrants.
His position denying the existence of the Palestinian people caused a public outcry. Gorka's appointment drew sharp criticism from the Council on American-Islamic Relations and other organizations, which called him an anti-Muslim extremist. It is noteworthy that this decision was made against the background of Trump's attempts to enlist the support of the Muslim and Arab communities.
This appointment may complicate the President's efforts to strengthen ties with these groups. Sebastian Gorka already served as deputy Assistant to the President for National Security in the first Trump administration, but left it in 2017. His return could increase tensions between the administration and the Muslim communities.
