Delhi: US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said on Thursday that American and Israeli objectives in Iran are not the same.
“The objectives… laid out by the president are different from the objectives… of the Israeli government,” she said.
Gabbard said Israel has focused on targeting Iran’s leadership, while US goals include destroying missile capabilities and naval forces.
When asked whether the US had been forced into the Iran war by Israel, both Gabbard and CIA Chief John Ratcliffe responded negatively.
