Netanyahu ‘Bullied’ Trump Into War: Ex-Obama Official on the War on Iran

In this wide-ranging interview of ‘Mehdi Unfiltered,’ former Obama official Ben Rhodes joins Mehdi Hasan to discuss Israel’s role in shaping the United States’ war with Iran. Ben Rhodes served as deputy national security adviser in Barack Obama’s White House for eight years. He was working with President Obama as Benjamin Netanyahu continued to pressure the US, time and time again, to attack Iran. In the discussion, Rhodes tells Mehdi that Israel’s ultimate objective is to turn Iran into a “failed state.” He criticizes Democratic Party leadership for failing to respond to the conflict, arguing that those who did not oppose the war must be primaried. The two also examine the Obama administration’s decision to pursue regime change in Libya in 2011 without congressional approval. “I acknowledge the mistakes made,” Rhodes tells Mehdi, reflecting on the intervention.
