Political commentator Tucker Carlson landed in hot water after his speech during the memorial service of American political activist Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated on Sept. 10 during a speech at Utah Valley University by the 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.
-snip-
Tucker Carlson, the Former Fox News television personality, was blasted all over social media and accused of antisemitism after his speech in which he likened the story of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ at the hands of jews to the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Carlson said that both Jesus and Kirk were killed for telling the truth. In the statement, he said, "I can just sort of picture the scene in a lamp-lit room with a bunch of guys sitting around eating hummus, thinking about, ‘What do we do about this guy telling the truth about us?' We must make him stop talking."
He added, "And there's always one guy with a bright idea, I can just hear him say, 'I've got an idea, why don't we just kill him?'"

Stupid people in this country. The Jews did kill him.
“....He did indicate they did. He raised the blood libel accusation and soiled the memorial service for Charlie Kirk.”
Tucker talked about the dangers of speaking truth to power. I heard what he said, he referenced a historic event and did not lay blame on any group of people, only those who make power and prestige their God.
From my perspective, you appear to be a person who hates Tucker Carlson and who is desperately trying to manufacture a slight so you can reinforce “Tucker bad!”. Stop distracting from a wonderful memorial service to advance your agenda.
You have to understand that Christianity is naturally anti-Semitic in nature so it’s completely expected that he would say something like this. There are plenty of stories in the Christian’s NT that cast Jews in a negative light.
This might upset you Christians that read this, but here’s a good question.
During WW2, while the Jews were going through the Holocaust at the hands of the Germans, why weren’t they going through the same thing in Japan, an Axis power allied with Germany? Because there weren’t very many Christians in Japan. In Germany and other Nazi-occupied territories who was in charge? The Lutherans and Catholics.
Look at the Spanish Inquisition. It lasted from 1492 (actually 1478) until 1834. It was the Catholics persecuting the Jews in Europe and every Catholic-dominated country in the world.
The “Suffering Servant” in Isaiah 53 isn’t about Jesus. It’s the Jews whom have been suffering at the hands of the Christians for the last 2,000 years. It all goes back to the feud during the Bronze Age between Esau (aka Edom) and Jacob (Ya’akov).
I know I’m going to get a ton of crap from FReepers here so...FLAME ON!
Maybe if Charlie flipped some tables the metaphor would be more accurate.
An odd thing to say on Tucker’s Part— In this day and age, Post Holocaust, to blame the Jews for the death of Jesus. He should put the blame on the real motives rather than use Jesus. Not thinking.
Tucker shoud never have been invited to speak. He seemed out of place at a memorial. Too political. He was cringe-worthy.
This is so stupid. The assassin is NOT Jewish, so there is no justification for this attack.
Tucker seems to have some nutty views these days. Its a shame.
I don’t understand why you think history should be rewritten.
Whether you believe in the Matthew, mark, Luke and John gospels or the Talmud there is evidence there was an issue depending on how your favorite scholar interprets
https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/who-killed-jesus/
According to the Gospel accounts, Jesus was condemned to death by Pontius Pilate, a Roman official, but the Jewish high priest and other high officials pressured him into doing so. The Pharisees were not involved. Elsewhere in the Gospels they are portrayed as antagonistic to Jesus but they were not part of the power structure.
he has gone over the rails in a sumilar fashion as Candace
Which is exactly what Bibi's front man Bill Ackman confronted Charlie about during their meeting in August.
Charlie didn't sellout his friend(s) and he was dead a month later.
Persians. Hell, the entire middle east eats Hummus, so do I. Good stuff.
Yuk!
Narrow minds cannot grasp that concept
The link I posted says all 4 gospels either explicitly or implicicity say Jews killed Jesus but because they weren’t allowed to do it themselves they enlisted Romans to do the deed
So you either have to say the gospels are liars or you have to accept that is what happened
And it is not a stretch for scholars to believe in retribution for these claims from the Christians that the Talmud said Christian Jesus is boiling in excrement
The fact that Hitler tried to kill all the Jews doesn’t rewrite the Gospels
The problem with narrow minds is they are far too ignorant to understand where their favorite foods came from in the first place.
A GREAT things about America is that we take in people from around the world and steal their best foods and modify them as our own. Pizza, for instance. So-called Chinese or Mexican foods. Far from actual Chinese or Mexican foods, but we love what we have.
Too political? More than trump?
Jesus preached against the establishment of his time; the high priests of Judaism. He preached returning to God and skip past the establishment who governed the Jewish religion.
I see Charlie as having done the same: Skip the arguments of government and go directly to God. Not elevating Charlie to Jesus by any means, but the message is similar and it resonates with many people. No Rules Just Right.
