Tucker Carlson evaluated the US's relations with Israel and the election performance of the Republicans in his YouTube program.
In his program published on YouTube, American journalist Tucker Carlson evaluated the defeat of the Republicans in the Congressional midterm elections held on November 3 and the relations of the USA with Israel.
Stating that it is wrong for a leader to choose another country over his citizens, Carlson said, "Just like it would be wrong for a leader to take his neighbor's children to Disney World while his own children are starving. This is immoral. Trump did exactly this. He chose Israel instead of the USA."
Carlson said about the Trump administration, "They do not think that our people should be prioritized. They think that Israel should come first. Trump chose a foreign country, Israel, and its interests instead of the interests of his own country. If your country constantly starts meaningless wars in the Middle East on behalf of Israel and you lose every time, you are weakening your power. You are causing your citizens to die and you are being dragged into bankruptcy step by step."
Carlson said that maybe at some point someone should have said, "This is a bad idea. We can't go to any more wars after Israel," but he said that didn't happen because no one had the courage to voice what was really going on.
Regarding the US invasion of Iraq, Carlson said, "We did this in the Iraq War 23 years ago. We entered the war by fulfilling Israel's demands, but this event has been erased from history. If you ask those who were involved in it (at that time), they would say, 'This is exactly what happened.' he will say. By the way, it was Netanyahu, the same man, but you won't find that in any textbook. George W. Bush believed there were weapons of mass destruction. Who knows what he actually believes? "But the Israeli government and Israeli intelligence agencies led him to do this for their own interests," he said.
Stating that this has been done over and over again because people are not honest about this issue and allow the facts to be distorted, Carlson said, "It's the same man. Netanyahu. You should be in Syria (he says)."
"And then there's Iran, the big issue, the big issue that really ended the American Empire, really bankrupted us, really threatened the dollar and a lot of other things," Carlson commented.
"ISRAEL IS COMMITTING GENOCIDE"
"Even at the Instagram level, it was known that the Republicans would be defeated because of the war in Iran. Everyone knew that," Carlson said.
Pointing out that they did not put the USA first, Carlson said, "So, what is this strange relationship between us and Israel? By the way, Israel is committing genocide. Why are genocidal people worshiped?" he asked.
Carlson said, "We are paying for the bombs that kill children in Gaza," and described the Israelis who usurped Palestinian lands as "Israeli terrorists supported by the US Senate."
“American taxpayers are paying (for) Israeli settlers to kill and attack Christians and Americans,” Carlson said.
