Hillary Clinton Reveals Netanyahu Relentlessly Pushed Her Administration to Attack Iran
"When I was secretary, it was a constant, you know, theme by Netanyahu and his then government, the then Defense Minister Ehud Barak, the former prime minister. It was relentless. It was a constant push. He would basically say, we need to, you need to support us in attacking Iran. And they would say things like, you know, our planes are on the tarmac."
About this episode
Piers Morgan hosted an explosive debate on his Uncensored show examining the controversial Iran peace agreement set to be signed Friday, featuring Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur, General Mark Kimmitt, Lieutenant Colonel Chuck DeVore, foreign policy analyst Hagar Hamali, and political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen. The discussion centered on leaked details of a 14-point memorandum that would provide Iran with $300 billion in financing and $25 billion in unfrozen assets in exchange for commitments on nuclear weapons and opening the Strait of Hormuz. The agreement has fractured Trump's coalition, with traditional supporters like Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro furiously opposing the deal while Uygur unexpectedly defended it as serving American rather than Israeli interests. Hillary Clinton's revelation that Netanyahu relentlessly pressured multiple administrations to attack Iran provided crucial context for understanding the war's origins. Uygur made incendiary claims that Israel stole nuclear technology from the United States and has cost America $8 trillion through Middle Eastern wars, arguing Israel poses a greater threat than Iran. General Kimmitt admitted U.S. intelligence badly misjudged the effectiveness of strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities, contradicting earlier claims the attacks set Iran back decades. The panel debated whether the deal resembles Obama's JCPOA that Trump previously denounced, with experts disagreeing on whether conditions-based financing differs meaningfully from upfront payments. Trump's rhetoric has shifted dramatically from threatening total annihilation to calling Iranian negotiators rational and smart, while simultaneously criticizing Netanyahu for excessive civilian casualties in Lebanon. The conversation revealed deep fissures over whether American foreign policy serves Israeli or U.S. interests, with heated exchanges over nuclear proliferation, regional stability, and the fundamental question of whether this war achieved any strategic objectives worth its economic and human costs.
