He can’t stop talking about the Jews.
-snip-
A survey of Carlson’s programming and rhetoric over the past several years, however, makes abundantly clear that he is indeed very much “obsessed” with Israel and the Jews. Carlson has devoted more time and attention to the Jewish state, which he portrays in a uniformly negative light, than to any other country in the world. He has suggested that Israel and its agents have been behind everything from the assassination of President John F. Kennedy to the promotion of “white genocide” to the deceased financier Jeffrey Epstein’s supposed entrapment of the world’s most powerful men via the trafficking of underage girls. To listen to Carlson’s show is to come away with the impression that Adolf Hitler was misunderstood, that Israel is a country systematically murdering Christians, and that American Jews compose a bloodthirsty fifth column bent on conscripting their Gentile countrymen to fight Israel’s wars.
-snip-
Since Israel’s attack on Iran’s nuclear sites, Carlson has become even more brazen in questioning the ethics and loyalty of American Jews. “How did Bill Ackman get so rich?” he asked attendees during an hour-long harangue at a Turning Point USA conference in July, before invoking one of the hoariest of antisemitic defamations. “If you’re getting rich by loaning money to people at incredibly high interest rates, that’s something you’re going to have to talk to God about.” (Ackman is an investor, not a banker.) In an agitated appearance on Steve Bannon’s podcast five days before Trump bombed Iran, Carlson rhetorically asked a Jewish-American commentator, “Are you even from here?,” described two Jewish-American media personalities as Israel’s “proxies in the United States,” and raged that Israel “blew up a church in Gaza with my money,” adding, “I’m a Christian, like, no, how about no?”

I think that Tucker Carlson's rhetoric is a backlash against the fact that the Trump administration actively goes after antisemitism on college campuses while ignoring the fact that the same college campuses have long been saturated with anti-white and anti-American rhetoric.
If universities are being denied funding and foreign students are deported for being anti-Jewish and anti-Israel, why aren't we doing the same when those universities sponsor courses teaching that the white race, Christendom, and the United States are the source of all evil?

Oh, so now you're trying to dishonestly twist my words. Those military actions were fought for other countries...Israel being a big one. Nobody is avoiding US history, I'm citing US history. False; you have cited nothing but your
opinions.
Your first
opinion is Syria. I assume you are referring to:
Shortly after the start of the civil war in 2011, the Obama administration placed sanctions against Syria and supported the Free Syrian Army rebel faction by covertly authorizing Timber Sycamore under which the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) armed and trained rebels. Following the Islamic State's occupation of Eastern Syria in August 2014, the United States conducted surveillance flights in Syria to gather intelligence regarding the Islamic State. In September 2014, the United States-led coalition—which involves the United Kingdom, France, Jordan, Turkey, Canada, Australia, and others—launched an air campaign against the Islamic State and al-Nusra Front inside Syria. .. No, Israel not involved; US fighting with other nations. You are against all those nations, correct, especially the Moslem countries, right ?

Your second opinion was Libya; sigh; do you know the history of the United States and Libya ? If you just want to concentrate on the modern history and avoid the Barbary Wars, take this into account:

Buckley was “ex” CIA.
His job was to be part of controlling the narrative (gatekeeping) on the right side of the political spectrum.
“Full spectrum dominance”
The CIA understood that they could be destroyed at some point if they did not control both political parties.

Charles Krauthammer was Walter Mondale’s speechwriter when he ran against Ronald Reagan in 1984.
His rebranding as a conservative always struck me as more opportunism than conviction. Something shared by most of the neoconservative movement.

If you just want to concentrate on the modern history and avoid the Barbary Wars, take this into account: The Years of WheelusWhat does any of this have to do with the Obama administration deciding to intervene in Libya? Khaddafi had already given up whatever chemical weapons he had. He was a SOB and a dictator and all that but did getting rid of him make Libya better? No. Its a complete shithole today with an open slave market. Its a failed state now. We shouldn't have bothered.

That's all this is....our opinions.
Why should we have gotten involved in Libya? Its a sandy shithole. Its not vital to American national interests. Khaddafi was a SOB but there's a world full of SOBs like that. So what? Not our circus and not our monkeys.

To love the UNITED STATES has nothing to do with loving the Government
It means loving the NATION. America is a Nation, not a Confeceracy.The problem is that certain cities have gone neo- Confederate, amd they oppose everything the USA stands for.
