Tucker Carlson said he's not sure he can support the Republican party after a Florida congressman called for Gaza to be nuked.
Congressman Randy Fine, who was recently elected to replace Mike Waltz in Florida as the preferred candidate of President Trump, made the jaw dropping comments in a Fox News interview last month.
He said: 'In World War 2 we did not negotiate a surrender with the Nazis, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Japanese.
'We nuked the Japanese twice in order to get unconditional surrender. That needs to be the same here in Gaza.
'There is something deeply wrong with its culture and it needs to be defeated.'

Carlson, speaking on his podcast alongside Glenn Greenwald, said he was so taken aback by the comments that he initially thought they couldn't have been made by a real politician.
'I text a friend of mine in Congress,' Carlson said. 'This is a person who I confirmed is a real person. I didn't believe it at first... I didn't believe he was really a member of Congress.'
'It's evil. How can you say something like that and not get expelled from Congress? How can that person still be in the Republican party?'
Carlson went on to say that Fine's comments had made him question whether he could remain loyal to the Republican party.
'I don't know if I can support a party with someone like Randy Fine... that's so disgusting.
'So we're gonna nuke Gaza because of its culture? We're going to kill everyone because we don't like their culture?' he repeated incredulously.
'There are Christians in Gaza. Muslims in Gaza. To say there is some Gazan culture that's cohesive.'

But Fine is a Jewish Trump-backed pick who won 83 percent of the Republican primary vote

10-15 well-placed tactical nukes would do just fine.
You shouldn’t nuke Gaza, to many people down wind that would get pissed off.

It’s been suggested that Carlson is a Drama Queen as well as anti-semitic.
I generally agree that a Congressman flippantly stating that we should use nuclear weapons is inappropriate. Gaza should not be “nuked”.
I also don’t believe Gaza should ever again be a self-governing territory under Muslim control.
Now as for Tucker, He can do whatever he wants as far as being a loyal or non-loyal supporter of Republicans, that’s his business, but what bugs me about Tucker is that he is still considered a serious journalist after reporting on “lizard people” and “Demons” that apparently caused him actual bodily harm.
I can’t take him seriously anymore - but occassionally will watch an interview if I do not think it will require him to be on whatever meds he must be taking to torch his credibility with “lizard people” reports.
Anyone remember when Ron and Rand were saying it didn’t matter if the little terrorists Nations in the Middle East had Nuclear weapons?
Show us your so-called “Palestine” on a map.
Is michael savage still around? Haven’t heard his name in over a decade. That’s on the radio and here on free republic
This nis just an excuse.
He was looking for a reason to reject republicans.
What’s he going to do? Turn democrat?
NOTE TO CARLSON:
PUT ON YOUR BIG BOY PANTS
“unconditional surrender”
The biggest lie ever put on the world. There was NOT unconditional surrender in WWII!
I disagree with Randy Fine. Nuking Gaza would make it useless to anyone for many years and endanger the rest of the world with the fallout. However, I would say that Bibi needs to level Gaza, conventionally, and kill everyone in it. Then it can be rebuilt.
Here ya go:

Now, how about your offering proof for your assertion there is “no such thing as Palestine or a Palestinian”? You’re so sure of yourself, go ahead and come up with proof.
You’re the one who made the assertion. Prove it.
Exactly, it's a stupid position to take if Tucker actually believed it, but he doesn't. It's yet another bit of raw meet he's throwing to the particular fanbase he has cultivated -- the modern day "Blame America First" crowd. He has become as pure a ratings/attention seeking whore as there is in the media.
All righty then, we’ll put you down as an avid supporter of genocide and baby killing.
Please educate us. I’ve always heard that Japan and Germany surrendered unconditionally.
What were the conditions of surrender for each country?
That’s a map of Israel.
Giggle boy Carlson and his self-hating Jew fruitcake friend Greenwald knows full well that Fine didn’t call for Gaza to be nuked.
He’s still smarting about Israel’s brilliant ops against the Hezzies and Ham-ass last year.
Back in Jan of 2020 Tucker went ballistic after Trump took out Soleimani. He never forgave DJT for that.
The enemies (Iran and their proxies) of Tucker’s enemy (Israel) are his friends.
In 2018, Fine tried to limit 2nd amendment rights, he tried to defeat Trump’s immigration policies and wanted to make Florida a sanctuary state. The Florida GOP wanted to get him out of the state legislature because he REPELS everyone.
They asked DeSantis to put him up for Florida Atlantic President and he did. The entire board would have resigned because Fine is that troubling as an individual.
But yeah...or something?

Agreed. This is a war. You stop when you are assured the problem is solved and your nation has won and is safe.
Tucker seems to have gone off the deep end here lately......
