America First vs Israel First: American troops, Israeli war? | This is America
In this episode of This is America, hosted by Anna Burns-Francis, Al Jazeera's special coverage from Washington DC examines whether the war on Iran serves "America First" or "Israel First" interests. With President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu speaking almost daily, analysts question whose objectives are driving the conflict—particularly after Secretary of State Marco Rubio acknowledged the US acted knowing Israel would attack first.The programme features former Israeli negotiator Daniel Levy, who argues Netanyahu sees a "golden opportunity" to drag the US into his broader regional war, aiming for "greater Israel domination" and regime collapse in Iran, indifferent to consequences for Gulf states or America. Levy notes this strategy has broad Israeli establishment support, transcending Netanyahu's personal political needs.
A panel with former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense David Sedney and Atlantic Council Senior Fellow Ariel Cohen debates US-Israel dynamics. Sedney contends Netanyahu has "huge influence" over Trump, who he calls "irrational" and "subject to manipulation." Cohen counters that the US remains the senior partner, with Trump focused on China and using the war to defang Iran—degrading its nuclear and missile programs—while acknowledging midterm election pressures may push Trump to end it sooner than Israel wants.
The episode highlights the resignation of top counterterrorism official Joe Kent, who wrote Iran posed "no imminent threat" and that the US started the war "due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby." Media coverage from Axios to the Wall Street Journal reflects growing questions about divergent US-Israel endgames, with conservative commentators like Megyn Kelly and Candace Owens amplifying the "Israel First" critique online.
