JD Vance, the U.S.vice president, has accused elements within the Israeli government of seeking to prolong the military campaign against Iran indefinitely, undermining diplomatic efforts.

During an interview on The Joe Rogan Experience, Vance claimed there are individuals in Israel's leadership manipulating American public opinion to sustain the war effort without a clear strategic objective.

He also raised concerns about former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale allegedly running an online influence campaign on behalf of Israel to bolster its image in the U.S., which Parscale denied.The remarks come amid escalating tensions between the U.S.and Israel over a recent peace deal with Iran, which Israeli officials criticized for failing to address key security concerns.Despite disagreements, both nations have resumed military actions against Iran, including naval blockades of the Strait of Hormuz.Vance's comments highlight deepening rifts in the traditionally close U.S.-Israel alliance, as disagreements over the Iran strategy threaten to complicate broader regional stability.
