Former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent asserted in a post on X that prior to the start of the Iran war, the U.S. intelligence community agreed that the Islamic Republic was not developing a nuclear weapon.
"One of the many tragedies of this war is that before the war began the U.S. Intel Community, including CIA, was in agreement that Iran wasn't developing a nuclear weapon & that Iran would target U.S. bases in the region & shut down the Strait of Hormuz if they were attacked by Israel & the U.S.," Kent wrote in a post on Thursday.
"The IC also properly assessed that targeting the Iranian leadership would strengthen the regime and embolden the hardliners. Despite the professionalism & accuracy of the IC, the narrative & agenda spun by a foreign government- Israel, won the argument & forced us into this war," he continued.
"We need to understand exactly how this happened to ensure we are never put in this position again," he concluded.
White House spokesman Davis Ingle said the following in a statement to Fox News Digital: "Joe Kent’s self-aggrandizing resignation letter and recent comments are riddled with lies…”

“”We need to understand exactly how this happened to ensure we are never put in this position again,” he concluded.”
Oh what a nice question. How did we end up in this situation where he had to invade Iran to keep them from developing nukes?
Answer: “Do not ever elect a democrat president again.”
I’m pretty sure they want (lot’s) of nukes. if this war has proven anything is proven that they’re Russian and Chinese and North Korean crappy artillery and missiles and nonsense are just completely worthless. They do have billions of dollars worth of oil and so most likely they will just try to buy one. You don’t necessarily have to build one. Just wave $1 billion underneath some guy’s nose and you can find one.
Right, they enriched uranium to 60% just for civilian purposes, which only requires 3% to 5% enrichment. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
“the U.S. intelligence community agreed that the Islamic Republic was not developing a nuclear weapon.”
Really? What would you think their plan was for their 60% enriched Uranium? Doorstops maybe?
Is that the same “Intel Community” that CREATED, PUSHED the Russia Russia Russia lying sack of crap debacle?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?
Joe Kent?
Might as well change his name to Brandon Kent.
Let’s go Brandon!
I was wondering the same. iirc in the US powerplants typically use 5.1% U235.
Yep.
Nothing to see here.
They sit on gigatons of cheap energy, but they need nuclear powered facilities.
Can I interest you in some land. It’s not swamp, I promise. Experts told me so.
The IR cannot be allowed to hold the world hostage to ensure their continued reign of terror. This should have been done decades ago.
So this guy speaks for the intelligence community because he say he does? Yeah, that’s how it works.
We all watched this pimped tool Joe Kent show up on cue, 3, 2, 1, lights, camera. Obama smiles.
He was already being looked at for leaking secrets and kept out of meetings, an obvious installed deep state hack we all saw coming from weeks out. They really need to step up their game or try a different approach.
Faux News was dumb enough to believe him.
“Three Time Loser” Joe Kent.
Possible Leaker, Joe Kent.
Stirring the pot of Conservative v. Conservative better than any paid Soros Operative, I give you Condi!
Your hero?
Yeah, right. He’s a liar and butt hurt because Trump fired him.
lies like a rug
all these kinds of lies being pumped out render our public discourse meaningless
have you taken a look at all the fake news... falsified video news “reports” and “analyses” on You tube? At least half the pixels are patently distortions and lies...some super-sized lies that would make Joseph Goebbels proud.
Some generated with AI using fake talking heads.
so they can churn their krap out in higher volume
it is disgusting.
and IMHO dangerous
Every day I become more convinced that a nuclear Iran is just another part of a muti-pronged plan to destroy the West and kill a large number of its anti-collectivist population by the leftist globalists who feel our existence is the remaining barrier to their insatiable lust for total control.
Does the intelligence community have a large majority of Demon-rats on it?
One of my friends a high ranking general from JCOS told me that Kent is media hog and FOS. He was also cut off from the crucial meetings because of unscrupulous behavior!
