乔·肯特称“某外国政府——以色列——编造的叙事与议程赢得了辩论，将我们拖入了这场战争”

美国前国家反恐中心主任乔·肯特在X平台发帖称，在伊朗战争爆发前，美国情报界已达成共识：伊朗伊斯兰共和国并未研发核武器。
“这场战争的诸多悲剧之一在于，开战前，包括中央情报局在内的美国情报界一致认为，伊朗未在研发核武器，且如果伊朗遭到以色列和美国的袭击，伊朗会打击美国在该地区的基地，并封锁霍尔木兹海峡。”肯特周四在一篇帖子中写道。
“情报界还准确评估出，打击伊朗领导层会强化该政权，并助长强硬派气焰。尽管情报界行事专业、判断准确，但某外国政府——以色列——编造的叙事与议程赢得了辩论，将我们拖入了这场战争。”他继续说道。

“我们需要彻底弄清这一切是如何发生的，以确保我们再也不会陷入这样的境地。”他总结道。
福克斯新闻数字频道周五联系白宫，寻求对肯特言论的回应。
肯特已于今年3月辞去国家反恐中心主任一职。

“我无法问心无愧地支持这场持续的伊朗战争。”他在辞职信中写道，“伊朗并未对我国构成迫在眉睫的威胁，很明显，我们发动这场战争是因为受到以色列及其在美国势力强大的游说团体的施压。”

“以色列从未劝说我参与对伊战争。10月7日袭击事件的发生，加上我毕生的信念——伊朗绝不能拥有核武器，才是原因所在。”这位总统在帖子中写道，此处他所指的是2023年10月7日针对以色列的骇人恐怖袭击。

Joe Kent declared ‘the narrative & agenda spun by a foreign government- Israel, won the argument & forced us into this war’
By Alex Nitzberg Fox News
Former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent asserted in a post on X that prior to the start of the Iran war, the U.S. intelligence community agreed that the Islamic Republic was not developing a nuclear weapon.
“One of the many tragedies of this war is that before the war began the U.S. Intel Community, including CIA, was in agreement that Iran wasn’t developing a nuclear weapon & that Iran would target U.S. bases in the region & shut down the Strait of Hormuz if they were attacked by Israel & the U.S.,” Kent wrote in a post on Thursday.
“The IC also properly assessed that targeting the Iranian leadership would strengthen the regime and embolden the hardliners. Despite the professionalism & accuracy of the IC, the narrative & agenda spun by a foreign government- Israel, won the argument & forced us into this war,” he continued.

“We need to understand exactly how this happened to ensure we are never put in this position again,” he concluded.
Fox News Digital reached out to the White House on Friday for a response to Kent’s comments.
Kent resigned from the National Counterterrorism Center director role back in March.

“I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran,” he wrote in his resignation letter. “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 an April Truth Social post, President Donald Trump slapped down the notion that Israel convinced him to enter the war against Iran.

“Israel never talked me into the war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did,” the president wrote in part of the post, referring to the heinous Oct. 7, 2023, terror attack perpetrated against Israel.
