Walid Phares Is Among Trump's Policy Advisors

You pretty much have to be an IBA/Pamela Geller/Jihad Watch/Vlad Tepes/Gates of Vienna junkie to know who Walid Phares.

But suffice it to say, this is a good choice.

From CNN:

Trump's team of foreign policy advisers, led by Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, consists of counter-terrorism expert Walid Phares, energy consultant George Papadopoulos, former Defense Department inspector general Joe Schmitz, managing partner of Global Energy Capital Carter Page and former Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg. Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks confirmed the names to CNN. 

"And I have quite a few more," Trump told the Post's editorial board, without offering details. "But that's a group of some of the people that we are dealing with. We have many other people in different aspects of what we do. But that's pretty representative group."

Here's an important book from Walid Phares:
