President Donald Trump has faced a harsh reaction from a part of his Maga movement, after the decision to launch Iran, critics saying he was handled by Israel in a new war in the Middle East, writes FT. «An overwhelming majority of people does not want to get involved in all this,» said Steve Bannon, Trump's former chief strategist in his first term, in his podcast War Room, shortly after attacks. Even before American B-2 bombers hit the Iranian nuclear facilities in Fortow, Natanz and Isfahan, the prospect of US involvement has revealed deep divisions in the pro-Trump camp. Supporters of the intervention, such as Senator Lindsey Graham and the influential radio producer Mark Levin, pleaded for the involvement of US in the war with Iran. Instead, Bannon and Conservative Personality Tucker Carlson urged Trump to keep the US outside hostilities. Carlson said that there is no justification for attacking Iran, adding that «there is no credible information» to suggest that Iran would be «at least close» to build a nuclear bomb. Skeptics have argued that, with Israel to attack Iran, Trump betrays his promise to end the «endless wars» of America and to keep the country away from military involvement in the Middle East-an essential pillar of his «First America» ​​agenda. They also warned that the attacks exhibit thousands of American military from the Middle East at risk of reprisals from Iran and its allies in the region. There are also concerns among the president's supporters that he had been drawn to this military operation by Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister, after initially relying on diplomacy to stop Iran's nuclear program. Speaking in his podcast, Bannon said that Israel «practically forced President Trump's hand.» Starting a war with Iran, knowing that he does not have the military ability to end it and that only American perforating bombs can destroy facilities like the Fortow. «Many of my acquaintances who support Israel ask: Why do we do all the hard work and why do we get involved in combat operations that is one of your choice?» He said. Some right-wing podcaters, known for the strong support for Trump, have expressed their confusion to the decision to attack Iran. «I had the impression that everything is about America First … And now … as if we are working for Israel,» said the influential Podcaster theo von. «I think for many people it is … you get to feel very disappointed … about our leaders.» «Donald Trump has now launched an illegal war of aggression against Iran,» said the comedian Dave Smith, for a long time with the Maga Movement. «And the worst thing is that he did it in the name of a foreign government against a country that represented no threat to us.» Others, however, chose not to comment harshly. The Marjorie Taylor Greene Republican congressist, who had stated that «we are tired of foreign wars,» was more reserved on Saturday, saying only on X: «Let us all unite and pray for peace.» Conservative influence Charlie Kirk said: «With the burden of the world on the shoulders, President Trump has acted for the good of humanity … In the next few hours, let us refrain from easy judgments and trust our supreme commander.»
