00:01.
00:20Big shock from Washington.
00:22A top US counter-terror official has just quit mid-war,
00:27and his reason is explosive.
00:29He claims the United States didn't need this war with Iran,
00:32and even more dramatically,
00:34says it was started under pressure from Israel.
00:37Let's break this down.
00:38Joe Kent, the director of the National Counterterrorism Center,
00:42has resigned from the administration of Donald Trump.
00:45And this isn't a routine exit.
00:47Kent says he cannot in good conscience
00:49support the ongoing US military campaign against Iran.
00:53His biggest claim?
00:55Iran posed no immediate threat to the United States.
00:58And according to him, this war was launched due to pressure from Israel
01:02and its powerful lobby in America.
01:04In a public statement,
01:06Kent questioned the very reason for the war,
01:08arguing that the US is being pulled into a conflict it didn't actually need.
01:13This makes his resignation one of the highest-profile exits
01:16since tensions between the US and Iran sharply escalated.
01:19As head of the National Counterterrorism Center,
01:23Kent was responsible for analyzing threats
01:25and coordinating intelligence across agencies,
01:27like the Pentagon and intelligence community.
01:30So this isn't just political noise.
01:32This is a key insider raising serious alarms.
01:36Kent also wrote directly to Trump, urging him to reconsider the war.
01:40He warned that the US could be heading toward decline and chaos,
01:44and told Trump,
01:45you hold the cards.
01:57He warned that the US will be coming to buy a new car!
02:04Not yet, he said he will be coming to the U.S.
