Bet-David Claims Israel Intelligence Manipulates US Iran Policy More Than CIA

What was said

"Of the 3 countries, the one that has the highest priority of making sure IRGC is no longer around is who? Israel, not us. Why? Closer Middle East region, all of that. So we rely on their intel to tell us on what's going on with Iran. And so that intel when we get could be good, bad, ugly, could be whatever they want it to be."

Patrick Bet-David argued that Israel, not the United States, drives Iran war policy because America relies on Israeli intelligence about Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. He suggested that this intelligence dependency allows Israel to shape US decision-making according to its own regional priorities, which he identified as regime collapse rather than nuclear non-proliferation.
