In his resignation letter he wrote – ‘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 other words he appears to have just confirmed that:
(i) the US went to war with Iran for the cause of a ‘Greater Israel’, and not in America’s interest, i.e. that the US was manipulated into War with Iran by Israel; and
(ii) this llegal war is based upon ‘a lie’, that was manufactured by Israel and the media.

A conclusion that may logically be drawn from what is written in Joe Kent’s Resignation Letter, is that this War was not only unecessary, i.e. it did not have to be fought, but that it also has no legal basis/justification whatsoever.

‘Today is the 20th anniversary — to the day — of the publication on the internet of “The Israel Lobby” in The London Review of Books. Naturally, the Judge and I talked about the article and book that Steve Walt and I wrote, focusing on the role that the lobby plays today — as opposed to back in 2006 — in shaping the discourse about Israel as well as US policy toward Israel.
I emphasized that the lobby’s role in shaping policy remains as strong as ever, but that it has lost control of the discourse. It is now widely believed in the US — and all around the planet for that matter — that the US was dragged into the Iran war by Israeli PM Netanyahu and the lobby.
Shortly after the show ended, news came out that Joe Kent, the Director of the Trump Administration’s National Counterterrorism Center had just resigned, and said in his letter of resignation that “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.” Of course, that was the line of argument the Judge and I were discussing just beforehand on his show.
The Judge and I also talked about state of the war and the apparent lack of a way the US can either end the war or win it.’
