Then for National Security adviser, Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, a fiery critic of what he calls radical islamic terrorists, and he is very forward leaning in using that term. And finally, congressman mike pompeo from kansas, who is a tea party member, also somebody whos been very confrontational in terms of going after islam and calling it in terms that the Obama Administration has said were counterproductive to the fight.
