Sometimes, someone who is in a position to know says something that appears to be undoubtedly and incontrovertibly true. This is a headline just released in an email by the Financial Times:

Joe Kent has seen the data. He was, until today, a US insider, a man who knew the intelligence. He was appointed presumably because he could discern the truth from the noise. I think that he has. I also am certain that he is right that Iran posed “no imminent threat to the USA” and that this war was started because of “pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.”
In my opinion any further debate on this issue is now irrelevant. Someone in a position to really know has stated the truth, and I accept it as such.
This war was illegally started by Israel and the USA at the behest of toxic greater Zionists.We are going to pay an enormous price for having tolerated their politics of hate for far too long, and for having also put up for too long with their claim that anyone who questioned what they were doing was antisemitic by definition when in practice it is their position that is fundamentally antisemitic by claiming that Jewish identity must always be wrapped up with genocide and military aggression, and even with the Jewish state. when all of those are wholly inappropriate claims to make, and anyone has a right to criticise the politics promoted by those living within the state of Israel.
It is time to move on and now appraise the consequences of this toxicity for the world, and when doing so we will find that nothing good has come from it, including for upstanding, honest and honourable Jewish people.

Among the honest and honourable Israeli people, must be the journalists of the Haaretz newspaper.
It is not easy to oppose the policy in a country at war.
Agreed
We are now in the age of infamy, surely. Because our future is potentially our enemy. That is the unfortunate conclusion I have come to. How can we begin to make this good I have no idea. It’s going to take some thinking through I’m afraid.
The report in the Guardian also points out that Kent was no arbitrary appointee in the first place. “Joe Kent, director of the National Counterterrorism Center and a far-right political figure and supporter of Donald Trump … “, and “Kent’s campaigns were marred by associations with figures on the far right and white nationalists”. This is someone who was absolutely aligned with the Trump position.
It’s also important to read the G report that suggests Jonathon Powell was an observer at the last round of talks between Iran and the US before the war started, and what his conclusions are reported to have been.
Agreed
When someone like this takes exception to Trump‘s war, we really should take notice
