An officer serving on the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s Levant desk, tasked with assessing Israel-related matters, was sacked by the Pentagon after social media posts revealed he labeled the Zionist Israeli regime a “death cult.”
Reports claim U.S. Army Capt. Nathan McCormack, who served on the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s J5 planning directorate for the Levant and Egypt branch, was recently expelled over posts critical of Israel’s war on Gaza and more.
“The information on the X account does not reflect the position of the Joint Staff or the Department of Defense,” the Pentagon noted in a statement to the Jewish News Syndicate (JNS). “The individual is being returned to his service while the matter is being investigated.”
“He will no longer be on the joint staff while the matter is being investigated,” the Pentagon wrote.
