Former CIA Director John Brennan has unleashed sharp criticism of the Trump administration’s recent strikes on Iran, calling the decision a credibility disaster. In a fiery statement, Brennan accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of steering U.S. policy, claiming "Bibi led, Trump followed"—a nod to Netanyahu’s nickname. 🎯
Brennan’s Bombshell Critique
The ex-spy chief argued that Netanyahu "saw an opportunity" to escalate tensions with Iran and seized it, leaving Washington’s diplomatic reputation in tatters. Brennan stressed that U.S. intelligence still believes Iran’s nuclear weapons program has been frozen since 2003, raising questions about the strikes’ justification. 💥
Credibility Crisis?
With global allies side-eyeing U.S. foreign policy moves, Brennan warned of a "deep erosion" in Washington’s trustworthiness. His remarks echo growing concerns about America’s role as a global stabilizer—or lack thereof. 🌐
As tensions simmer, young professionals and policy watchers are left wondering: Is this a new era of "follow-the-leader" geopolitics? 🤔
