The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating former counterterrorism official Joe Kent, who resigned in protest over the Iran war, US media reported Wednesday.
美国媒体周三报道，联邦调查局正在调查前反恐官员乔·肯特，此人因抗议对伊朗开战而辞职。

The bureau's investigation was underway before Kent resigned Tuesday as director of the National Counterterrorism Center, said News Nation, citing a source.
据News Nation援引消息人士称，在肯特周二辞去国家反恐中心主任职务之前，联邦调查局就已经在展开调查。

"Joe Kent is under FBI investigation for allegedly leaking classified information, three sources tell me. I'm told the investigation pre-dates his departure," Shelby Talcott, White House correspondent for news website Semafor, wrote in a post on X.
新闻网站Semafor驻白宫记者谢尔比·塔尔科特在X平台上发帖称：“三位消息人士告诉我，乔·肯特因涉嫌泄露机密信息而接受联邦调查局的调查。我被告知，这项调查在他离职之前就开始了。”

Tuesday, Kent announced on X that he has decided to resign from his position as he "cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war with Iran."
周二，肯特在X平台上宣布，他决定辞去职务，因为他“无法凭良心支持正在进行的对伊战争”。

"Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby," he wrote in the post.
他在帖子中写道：“伊朗并未对我们的国家构成迫在眉睫的威胁，而且很明显，我们发动这场战争是因为以色列及其强大的美国游说集团施加的压力。”

Kent noted that early in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign that wholly undermined President Donald Trump's America First platform and sowed pro-war sentiments to encourage a war with Iran.
肯特指出，在本届政府执政初期，以色列高级官员和美国有影响力的媒体成员发动了一场虚假信息宣传，完全破坏了总统唐纳德·特朗普的“美国优先”方针，并煽动战争情绪，以鼓动对伊朗开战。

Analysts say the resignation of a top US counterterrorism official signals mounting pressure on the Trump administration over the Iran war, amid intensifying criticism from Democratic lawmakers, business leaders, and even segments of his own support base.
分析人士表示，一名美国高级反恐官员的辞职，标志着特朗普政府在伊朗战争问题上面临的压力越来越大，来自民主党议员、商界领袖、甚至部分特朗普自身支持基础的批评也日益激烈。

Recent polls show that a significant portion of the Make America Great Again (MAGA) supporters continue to back Trump's military actions against Iran. Meanwhile, several key MAGA opinion leaders have publicly voiced their opposition, including Trump's former chief strategist Steve Bannon.
最近的民意调查显示，相当一部分“让美国再次伟大”的支持者仍然支持特朗普对伊朗的军事行动。与此同时，几位关键的“让美国再次伟大”意见领袖已公开表示反对，其中包括特朗普的前首席策略师史蒂夫·班农。
