US National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard Resigned Due to Iran War

Tulsi Gabbard, who served as National Intelligence Director during US President Donald Trump's administration, resigned following intense pressure from the White House. In her official statement, Gabbard announced that she had to leave public office due to her husband's diagnosis of a rare bone cancer. However, sources indicated that Gabbard's real reason was her strong objections to the US's war policy initiated against Iran. Gabbard had repeatedly expressed that the US military operations against Iran were unjust and unnecessary. During this period, Joe Kent, Director of the US National Counterterrorism Center, also resigned for similar reasons. This military operation launched by the US-Israel alliance against Iran has been widely criticized internationally and is causing significant discomfort within the US administration. Gabbard's resignation is seen as an indication of internal divisions within the Trump administration and concerns about war policies.
