Trump Suffers Set Back At Home Over War In Iran

President Donald Trump of the United States, U.S., has began to lose support home support over the war with Iran. 

Beside criticisms from the Democrats in the legislature, the Director of the US National Counterterrorism Center, NCTC, Joseph Kent, resigned his appointment in protest of the U.S.'s attack on Iran.

 Kent, in his resignation, declared:

“I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran”.

“Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.

“In your first administration, you understood better than any modern President how to decisively apply military power without getting us drawn into never-ending wars. You demonstrated this by killing Qasam Solamani and by defeating ISIS.

“Early in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign that wholly undermined your America First platform and sowed pro-war sentiments to encourage a war with Iran. 

"This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States, and that should you strike now, there was a clear path to a swift victory.

“This was a lie and is the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disastrous Iraq war that cost our nation the lives of thousands of our best men and women. We cannot make this mistake again.”

“I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of
American lives.”
