Former CIA Director John Brennan has delivered a scathing critique of U.S. foreign policy decisions under the Trump administration, calling recent strikes on Iran a credibility crisis \"shattered by impulsive leadership.\" In a candid assessment, Brennan accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of steering Washington's actions, stating \"Bibi led, Trump followed\" during critical decision-making moments.
The remarks come amid heightened Middle East tensions, with Brennan emphasizing that U.S. intelligence assessments about Iran's nuclear program remain unchanged since 2003. \"There's no evidence of active nuclear weapons development,\" he noted, raising questions about the strategic rationale behind military escalation.
Analysts suggest Brennan's comments reflect growing concerns among security experts about the erosion of diplomatic norms. The former intelligence chief warned that such actions risk isolating Washington on the global stage, particularly as Asian nations increasingly prioritize multilateral conflict resolution frameworks.
