US policy on Iran is viewed through Israeli prism: Ex-Pentagon official

Press TV - The United States is exerting pressure on Iran to implementIsraelipolicy, according to a former Pentagon official.

"US policy toward Iran is really being looked at through an Israeli prism," former Pentagon security analystMichael Maloof told Press TV in a phone interview on Tuesday.

He said the foreign policy of the United State of American was being led by President Donald Trumps neoconservative team of Israel-lovers.

The US foreign policy team comprised of US National Security Adviser John Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, who clearly want an American-Israeli military conflict with Iran, are running the policies, according to Maloof.

Trump'sneoconservative foreign policy team seeks Tel Aviv's approval on any policy linked to Iran. "Anything that has to do with Iran has to be sanctioned by Israel for some reason," Maloof insisted, addingthat was wherethe neoconservatives really flourished.

"They regard Iran as the number one enemy of Israel,and as the consequence,any US foreign policy toward Iran necessarily goes through Tel Aviv, " he said.

Instead of pursuing Americans interests,the neoconservatives are making effort to implement Israeli policy.

Israeli Prime Minister,Benjamin Netanyahuwould like the United States to apply militarily the expansion and execution of basically Israeli policy for Iran.'" he noted, adding, This complicates the things incredibly.
