In past few decades, there have been no administrations in White House with so many high-ranking officials in key positions: General Mattis, head of Pentagon, General McMaster, head of the U.S. National Security Council, and John Kelly, White House Chief of Staff.<br \/>\nThe editorial adds: In the past, these 3 key positions were taken by civilians. Moreover, after the Iranian revolution, all these generals have had the experience of being in charge of positions in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Lebanon, and have had bitter experiences from Iran. On the other hand, the U.S. State Department and its senior diplomats have been unprecedentedly marginalized. As a result, experienced diplomats have minimal role and influence in the U.S. current decision-making process.<br \/>\nThe editorial then focuses on Trump\u2019s daughter and her husband. The role of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner in decision-making and White House, given their zero diplomatic and political experience, is unprecedented and has made angry the generals residing in White House and Pentagon, as well as the U.S. diplomatic system.<br \/>\nThe editorial continues that these changes have created a confusion in the process of decision-making about important foreign policies and the U.S. national security, thus creating a golden opportunity for lobbies to influence this process.<br \/>\nIn conclusion, the editorial underscores Trump\u2019s being unique in the history of U.S. presidents. He is completely unpredictable, and the process of his decision-making has disturbed the majority of politicians from both parties, to the extent that Bob Corker, Republican Senator and head of the U.S. Senate Foreign Policy Committee, said Trump\u2019s policies might push the U.S. towards World War III.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #993300;\">An editorial in &#8220;Shargh&#8221; daily on November 29, 2017<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\">\u00bb\u00a0<\/span>Rouhani should Differentiate Lecture from Report<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nThis editorial deals with Hassan Rouhani\u2019s report of his first 100 days in office which is to be presented on Iranian state TV.<br \/>\nThe editorialist expects President Rouhani to present mostly economic issues in his 100-day report, including skyrocketing prices, continued unemployment, and evaluation of his administration regarding the recent earthquake in Kermanshah province. Rouhani, like his predecessors, will defend his work while giving sweet promises for Iran\u2019s future\u2014promises which have no specific deadlines.<br \/>\nThe editorialist continues that none of Iran\u2019s presidents have ever talked about their administrations\u2019 inadequacies or failures. In fact, Iranian authorities do not like to talk about what they have not achieved. Therefore, people are supposed to evaluate a government merely based on its promises.<br \/>\nWhat people want to know, however, is an answer to the following questions: Why was the issue of citizens\u2019 rights forgotten after Rouhani\u2019s presidential campaign? Why is the budget for health insurance decreasing day by day? Why was a government-drafted media regulation bill which was against freedom of expression written? Why is Iran still on the blacklist of money laundering countries?<br \/>\nInstead of some achievement propaganda, Rouhani needs to address the aforementioned topics in his 100-day-in-office report, concludes the editorialist.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #993300;\">An editorial in &#8220;Jahane Sanat&#8221; on November 28, 2017<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\">\u00bb\u00a0<\/span>Conflict between Doctor and General<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nEditorial of Ebtekar newspaper deals with the conflict of former and current mayors of Tehran \u2013one, former IRGC official Brigadier- General Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, and the other, former university professor Mohammad Ali Najafi.<br \/>\nAccording to the editorial, Ghalibaf has once again taken a stance against the new mayor \u2013 this time with his harsh reaction to the issue of closing down the 7th line of Tehran metro. Ghalibaf called Tehran\u2019s new mayor\u2019s decision regarding this issue \u201cpolitical\u201d while underscoring the correctness of decision made by him and his colleagues before. This stance provoked Najafi\u2019s reaction, and he invited Ghalibaf to a debate in a university in this regard.<br \/>\nThe editorial continues: it seems that Ghalibaf has not accepted that he is no longer the mayor of Tehran, and the municipality\u2019s new managers are entitled to run Iran\u2019s capital according to their own policies. If the former mayor had accepted this fact and hadn\u2019t taken stances against any moves of the new mayor, then he wouldn\u2019t have to now respond to an invitation to a debate which he will certainly lose.<br \/>\nThe editorial holds that the main question is why Najafi is inviting Ghalibaf to this debate because the new mayor usually distances himself from such disputes and arguments. Obviously, Najafi will have the upper hand in this debate, and Ghalibaf knows it better than anybody else does. The former mayor is well aware of what he and his team had done during past 12 years in Tehran municipality, and quite well knows that Najafi\u2019s team must have great findings in this regard.<br \/>\nIn conclusion, the editorialist focuses on people of Tehran who on day to day basis deal with \u201cunpleasant projects which are Ghalibaf\u2019s enduring heritage for Tehran\u201d. All these can make this debate, if it takes place at all, one the most interesting in the past decade in Iran.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #993300;\">An editorial in &#8220;Ebtekar&#8221; on November 26, 2017<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-436\" src=\"https:\/\/arabiangcis.org\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/06\/Prominent-News-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"188\" height=\"43\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">\u2666<\/span> Ahmadinejad to Khamenei: Judiciary officials are accused in public opinion <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-3969\" src=\"https:\/\/arabiangcis.org\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/11\/7201717145734173801527.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1383\" height=\"931\" \/><br \/>\nFormer president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in an open letter to Iran\u2019s leader Ali Khamenei, criticized the performance of the three branches, writing that \u2018the public opinion, for any reason, accuses the judiciary officials, and their consecutive stances and denials have not only not improved the conditions, but have made it worse.\u2019<br \/>\nAhmadinejad urges \u2018using the judiciary power in political, personal and family relations\u2019 has made \u2018reform in judiciary system\u2019 impossible.
