Right-wing pundit and journalist Caroline Glick has been appointed as international affairs adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, reports say.
She has joined the premier’s entourage on his trip to the United States this week, according to the Kan public broadcaster.
An outlet for which Glick has recently been working, JNS, publishes a statement from her: “Life takes you in different directions, and I am going back to the office where I worked nearly three decades ago as the prime minister leads Israel through the most difficult period in the history of the Jewish state… The strategic landscape of the Middle East has been transformed by Israel’s accomplishments in the war, and [this] affords us the opportunity both to expand our circle of ties and prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear capability, which is a requirement for Israel’s survival.”
The US-born Glick has been a columnist for The Jerusalem Post, a writer for US far-right outlet Breitbart News, a senior fellow of the US-based Center for Security Policy, and a Knesset candidate in Naftali Bennett and Ayelet Shaked’s short-lived New Right party in 2019.
She was an assistant foreign policy adviser to Netanyahu during his first term as premier in the 1990s.
