Joe Kent’s resignation letter to Trump
Joe Kent, a former U.S. Army Ranger who served in 11 combat tours and whose first spouse was killed in Syria in 2019, said in his resignation letter to U.S. President Donald Trump that Iran “posed no imminent threat” to the United States.
“It is clear that we are waging this war under pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby,” Kent said. “You will not understand until June 2025 that war in the Middle East is a trap that robs American patriots of precious lives and drains our nation of wealth and prosperity.”
Kent pushed the conflict with Iran by blaming “senior Israeli officials” and prominent U.S. media figures for orchestrating a “misinformation campaign” that undermined the America-first agenda and stoked war sentiments.
“This echo chamber is used to deceive you into believing that Iran poses an imminent threat to the United States and that if you attack now, there is a clear path to quick victory,” Kent said. “This is a lie, the same tactic the Israelis used to drag us into the disastrous war in Iraq that cost our country the lives of thousands of its best men and women.”
