Tucker Carlson Asks Iran’s President About ‘Death to America’ Chants: ‘Should We Be Afraid?’
Mediate ^ | 7/7/2025 | ALEX GRIFFING

Tucker Carlson began releasing preview clips from his interview with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Monday, including one in which he asked Pezeshkian about Iranians chanting “Death to America.”

“Many Americans are afraid of Iran. You say you’re not afraid, but Americans are afraid of Iran. And they believe that Iran would like to strike the United States with a nuclear weapon. They see video of Iranians saying death to America, describing our country as the great Satan. What is your opinion of that? Should we be afraid?” Carlson asked.

“I believe that this is a very wrong impression that anybody might have of Iran or the Iranians. I would like to remind you that Iran has never invaded another country in the last 200 years. When they say death to the United States it doesn’t mean death to—they don’t mean death for the people of the United States or even to the officials of the United States,” Pezeshkian replied through a translator, adding:

They mean death to crimes, death to killing and carnage, death to supporting, killing others, to insecurity and instability. Have you ever heard that an Iranian killing [sic] an American? Have you heard that? Or a terrorist that was Iranian and he carried out a terrorist attack against the Americans?

So what in the world is operating with Tucker? He’s not someone with a low IQ. He’s not ignorant. He supported Trump at least for a time.

Yet he provides a welcome platform for Iran after Iran tried three times to assassinate Trump. He lets pass without challenge their claim they have no interest in developing nuclear weapons, when they insist on enriching uranium to weapons grade, when they have no nuclear reactor power sources in the country, and when even the IAEA says Iran is not complying with treaties governing nuclear weapons.

He’s wealthy- I have a hard time believing he could be induced to say these things just because Qatar, or Kuwait, or anyone else, paid him.

So I don’t get it. It’s not even like people espousing ridiculous left wing positions so they can be invited to stylish parties. No one having a stylish party wants Tucker there.

I’d be grateful for thoughts others have on why he’s behaving this way.

Tucker turned out to be such a tool.

Yes, I used to kind of like him when he was on Fox. He got a little “extra” sometimes, but he made a lot of sense most of the time.

Now, as another FReeper said a week or two ago, if looks like the cheese done slid off his cracker.

I guess Tucker has never known the concept of taqiyya. The guy will lie to his face; he’s expected to lie to further the cause.

The Iranians fo not “oversee all terrorism in the world”. Most Islamic terrorists are Sunni. Iran is Shia. Sunnis consider Shia as heretics worse than even polytheist idol worshippers

1. The Word Clicks come to mind. ie Pay Attention To me!
2. When he left Fox he MAY have decided Everything he had said before was Wrong/A Lie. So he has to go the opposite.

He Says he Still Supports Trump except of Foreign Affairs. There he’s a Hard Core isolationist (ie Idiot).

Forgot about that whole Iran-Iraq war already, I see.

Because Saddam was the one who invaded Iran to begin with?
