‘Do the Israelis pay for our military?’: Journalist lashes out at Trump, questions his decision to ally with Israel and wage war on Iran

A lot has happened over the last five years, but things have been especially bad since last year, particularly for the United States. No need to guess: the same happened when Donald Trump became President. Since he began his second term last year, incidents have continued to occur that have significantly affected America and the entire world. Currently, it is Trump’s and the United States’ war with Iran, which the US voluntarily entered into in alliance with Israel.

Many people have voiced their dissatisfaction with Donald Trump’s decision to engage in a war with Iran, considering it unnecessary. Among them are journalists who have always been critical of Trump’s actions. A prominent figure among them is political commentator, media host, and journalist Ana Kasparian, whose recent video criticizing Trump is going viral on social media, especially on X (formerly Twitter). In it, she questions the US’s move to attack Iran in partnership with Israel and points out that risking American lives or spending billions of dollars on war isn’t justified just because an allied country believes they should do so.

Ana Kasparian is outspoken in her criticism of the US administration

Ana Kasparian is known for speaking her mind without sugar-coating, and because of this, she often receives criticism from conservative-leaning individuals. However, she remains undeterred and continues to speak her truth. In the latest episode of The Young Turks, which has been trending on social media, including X, Kasparian raises some important questions.

She asks, “Our soldiers… are in Israel right now as we speak to defend the Israelis. Do the Israelis pay for our military? Are they the ones shelling out a trillion dollars a year for our military? No, they are not. We pay for our military. Why are our soldiers based in Israel? Why do we have F-22 Raptors in Israel to protect Israel?”

Joe Kent confirms Israel influenced US decision to attack Iran

Joe Kent on camera tonight:

“All 18 of America’s intelligence agencies agreed — Iran had no capacity to develop a nuclear bomb.”

“But Israel was telling us they would be able to assemble ten bombs in two weeks.”

Joe Kent appeared on the Friday episode of The Megyn Kelly Show and revealed many secrets about the US’s operations in Iran, which was one of the main reasons he resigned as director of the United States National Counterterrorism Center.

In a part of the interview, Kent, to the shock of many, stated that according to investigations by the US’s 18 intelligence agencies, Iran was not developing nuclear bombs, and thus not an immediate threat to the US. He then pointed out that the only reason the US attacked Iran was that Israel told Trump and other members of his administration to.
