Has Tucker considered the ramifications of Iran’s crazy mullahs having deliverable nuclear weapons?

I didn’t know tucker felt this way. I dont really know tucker at all.

But I’ve lost a whole lot of respect for him based on this position.

fine, Tucker. just stay away from the 7 large USA cities that the crazy Iranian dictators are preparing to nuke

(maybe Tucker figures his homes at Boca Grande, FL are far enough away that he will survive the attacks okay)

In short, Iran is building its capability within America for a strike in catastrophic numbers anyway.

Operation Praying Mantis didn’t start a long war with Iran. It taught them to quit attacking cargo ships and US military ships. Iran hasn’t forgotten that lesson. They just think that there’s no longer a Reagan type president to fight back against them. To me Trump is likely to do much worse to Iran than Reagan ever thought about doing.

Sure. Let’s wait until Iran has their nuclear weapons ready to go. When they say death to America, I don’t think they’re joking.

The 9th Century pig fornicating psychopaths in Tehran cannot be allowed to have nukes. It’s that simple.

Tucker Carlson is not wrong here. Trump undermines his credibility as an American nationalist whenever he adopts a foreign policy that could have been drafted by George W. Bush, John McCain, and Lindsey Graham.

All due respect to Tucker, but I hope President Trump Soleimanis the hell out of the so-called “Islamic Republic” until the opressed people of Iran overthow the last vestiges.

Re: "thousands of American deaths at bases throughout the Middle East"

Thousands dead?

Only if they use nukes.

That sounds delusional to me, Tucker.

Trump would instantly counter attack with nukes.

The Mullahs square mile of Heaven on Earth in Tehran would look like a giant slice of burnt toast.

Conversely Muslims could stop their shit and there would be no problems.

Tucker has gone off the deep end

Tucker has drunk the UN Kool aid. There must be money in it.

Iran has considerable leverage over Qatar and other oil rich Gulf states because of Iran's all too credible threat to block the Straits of Hormuz. This explains Qatar's recourse to Tucker as a propaganda venue.

Then again, Iran is also vulnerable to economic and political pressure from the US and allied Sunni powers like Saudi Arabia. A restive and impoverished population unhappy with corrupt and brutal rule by the mullahs adds to Iran's structural weakness. This is balanced by Iran's mountainous periphery that makes it a natural fortress against land invasion and support for internal dissidents.

A clean, precise, and effective nuclear decapitation strike by the US is doable, but then what? Iran will respond in some manner, with a series of moves and counter moves to follow. The US can prevail, in time, but the course and cost of such a conflict are not fully predictable.

Nevertheless, against the threat of a nuclear Iran, hope and inaction are not a strategy. So the US under Trump is likely to act as the least bad choice and a way to shape events so as to reduce the chances of being made a victim.

Trump ran his campaign on the promise to end all of the unending wars and have America become a beacon of peace. Now, he is surrounded by warmongers who don’t have any kids who would be fighting these wars, but do have stocks in the corporations who build the weapons of war. Let’s see if Trump can ignore the advisors he chose and pick a real path of peace. Remember, he should have ignored Dr. Fauci, but he didn’t and thereby sealed his fate in 2020. Can he ignore the globalist warmongers this time and actually win the real war, which is here at home. Not in Iran, or Yemen, or Ukraine, or China. Here at home.

I suppose that if PDJT wanted Tucker’s two cents he would’ve been confirmed and sworn in by now.

I don’t pay a LOT of attention to Carlson, but it seems he’s been a little “off” lately. I dunno.

Tucker, along with many on FR, smiles at the thought of Iran getting nukes.

If Iran gets a nuclear bomb, they will use it. For them, this is a religious war, not a political war.

With the immigration of Muslims to all the countries in Europe except Hungary, there will be a war in the future whether I ran has nuclear bombs or not.

I see this the opposite of Tucker (and I like Tucker) in that our failure to use force to stop Iran from getting a bomb is the only chance to stop them from using one.
