National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent says Trump "started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby".

Trump said that he always thought former top counterterrorism official Joe Kent was "very weak on security" after Kent resigned Tuesday morning.

After President Trump said he needed to postpone his meeting in Beijing with Xi Jinping, a spokesman for China said officials were still discussing the timing of a meeting.

Mr. Kent is the first Trump administration official to quit in opposition to the conflict. He said pressure from Israel had pushed the president into war against Iran.
