0:38Now PlayingJoe Kent, the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned over the war with Iran, claiming that Israel had misled President Donald Trump into believing that the regime in Tehran posed an imminent threat. #iran #trump #usa #politics #worldnews #israel
Kent said he could not support “sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people.”
Trump said Kent was a “nice guy but I always thought he was weak on security” and that Kent’s claim that Iran was not a threat was incorrect, saying “Iran was a threat.”
