Tucker Carlson Slams Trump’s Strike on Top Iranian General: ‘Lumbering Toward’ War with Iran
Mediaite ^ | Jan 3, 2020 | Connor Mannion

Posted on 01/03/2020 3:23:21 PM PST by Mr. Mojo

Fox News host Tucker Carlson harshly criticized President Donald Trump for escalating tensions with Iran with the killing of a top military leader, saying the U.S. is “lumbering” into war.

Carlson commented on the news of Qasem Soleimani’s death as it was still breaking during Tucker Carlson Tonight Thursday evening. Carlson said the killing was undertaken unilaterally without debate and had been long desired by people seeking war with Iran like John Bolton.

“There’s been virtually no debate or even discussion about this, but America appears to be lumbering towards a new Middle East war. We have to say, it’s one that officials in Washington wanted for decades,” Carlson said. “Disgraced National Security Adviser John Bolton has made it his life’s mission to start a war with Iran and Bolton might be getting his wish.”

Tucker just lost about 10 points on my respectability scale.

Tucker is a Libertarian, which is more a religious than political philosophy.

The good news is that Fox News may be getting cut from cable TV outlets.

Sometimes you look at someone and the only word that comes to mind is....pussy.

Such is the case with Tucker Carlson.

Do you think he was offered a coveted job substituting for Scarborough on Morning Joe for holidays and vacation days?

Levin’s the only good one they’ve got now.
Hope he’d think about going to OANN.

I suspect that all the negative comments about Tucker on this thread are from the folks who never even bothered to watch the actual video..............

Never once did Tucker condemn our President as the title of the thread claims and his comments were taken out of context............

What the hell is happening to this site...............God help us all.

Military generals fighting and funding proxy wars in countries outside their sovereignty are in perilous circumstances at best. I doubt Norman Scwarttkopf would have lasted long with an entourage driving about Tehran?

Iran has been at war with the west for 40 years. Ignoring this is willful ignorance.

Pretty sick of these arm-chair quarterbacks. I guess he would prefer we continue to let them humiliate us at every turn. Please extract your head from your ass Tucker.

Tucker’s wrong, of course, but no one can please everyone all the time.

Carlson has been in Washington too long.

It needs to understand that it cannot commit aggressive acts of war with impunity,that Iran will pay a price for every act it perpetrates.

Iran is controlled by Theocratic Islamo-fascists who are bent on taking Mecca and controlling it. They are getting desperate as the Iranian population now rejects them for economic reasons and reason of wanting a more free society.

President Trump was quite right in his actions. Whether there eventually be war with Iran is up to Congress if Iran continues to escalate its attacks on US personnel and US allies.

Tucker Carlson reminds of the affe4cionados of Neville Chamberlain touting “peace in our time” after meeting with Hitler to placate him.What we see now with Iran is somewhat similar. Carlson is on the wrong side of history which reveals how we need to confront international tyranny.

What happens in the next few months really depends on Saudi Arabia. We will have to see.Meanwhile traitors like John Kerry and other Dems are meeting privately with Iranian diplomats and encouraging them to wait Trump out. Tucker Carlson also finds himself in their Company? Poor Tucker. He’s lost a few screws.He is on the wrong side of history.

Haven’t watched any PROPAGANDA/BRAIN WASHING in 7 years. Tucker - straight outta Compton? No, straight outta Central Casting.

IRREFUTABLE PROPAGANDISTS never held accountable on these massive amplification platforms. We Decide What and How to Report, So That You Can Decide.

DEPROGRAM yourselves. Your mileage may vary.

Don't worry, Tucker...you are too old, too fat, and too gay to get drafted! If and when the draft is restored. 😜
