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.

He’s right. All of the “greatest ally” people will deny it but we absolutely went to war because Israel told us to

Good for him. He would and is not be able to do his job. If left up to him, the door would be wide open and there would be many 9-11s.

I both support the military action in Iran and think that Israel sucks. So what now? Does that frick up your narrative? I'm also confident there are a lot more who feel the way I do.

Iran has been a serious geopolitical problem since 1979. In many ways, they’re like a chronic pain that constantly nags at you, but the only way to possibly get rid of it is through a painful and expensive surgery with a long recovery period. Is the surgery worth it to possibly get rid of the problem, or is it better to just keep enduring the pain?

Good riddance!! This tells us there are still a number of high ranking government officials that aren't loyal to team Trump. I hope more resign their positions!

I've listened to Joe Kent speak on a myriad of political topics and really believed he had a great future in the America First/MAGA movement. I guess the scars of war suffered by Kent himself coupled with his wife dying for the US was too much for Kent to bear. It's understandable why he feels the way he does but I wish he would have stuck it out and used his past military experience to help shape future military decisions. We thank you for your service Mr Kent.

Nobody with any info regarding the available intelligence believes that we were under an imminent threat. The halfhearted congressional briefings were not convincing in the least…
