#254 – USA+ | Joe Kent & Israel’s War in Iran | Shaiel Ben-Ephraim: Geopolitical Analyst

After his resignation, Donald Trump’s former director of counterterrorism, Joe Kent, published an open letter accusing Israel of deceiving the Trump administration into the war against Iran. The high-profile official argued that Iran did not pose an imminent threat to the United States. Was it Israel that pushed the U.

S. into attacking Iran? What is Israel's real motive behind the war? What are Israel’s objetives and perspectives? How do the Gulf states view the situation? Why is the EU so silent?

And did the White House underestimate Tehran? Shaiel Ben-Ephraim, a geopolitical analyst and former Israeli diplomat, joins me from Los Angeles to discuss all of this and more.
