Tucker Carlson, one of Fox News' biggest boosters of President Donald Trump, made an impassioned case against the airstrike that killed Iran’s top military leader, blasting Washington for ignoring "the big picture." During his Friday night show, "Tucker Carlson Tonight," the host decried the escalation of tensions with Iran sparked by the killing of Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani. "No one in Washington is in the mood for big-picture questions right now," he lamented. "Questions like: Is Iran really the greatest threat we face?

The worst attack on Israel in decades caught Israel, the United States, and the world by surprise. The extent of the attack and the tools of war used give every indication that Iran was involved both in supplying the weapons and in the timing of the attack. At least 70 citizens, including the elderly and children, have been killed and hostages have been taken into Gaza. There is fear that Hezbollah may attack in the North. Israel will do what it has to do to free their citizens and reclaim the land taken. Israel has responded with limited attacks and...

Tucker Carlson blasted Iran hawks in the Washington establishment Friday, saying they have wanted a war with Iran for decades and that they may have finally gotten it thanks to President Trump ordering a drone strike that killed Iranian general Qassem Soleimani Thursday. "What happened yesterday wasn't just another symbolic bombing," Carlson warned on "Tucker Carlson Tonight." "It was a pivot point. Neocons in Washington understood that immediately." -snip- "Yes, Soleimani was linked to the deaths of Americans. Nobody mourns his passing. But Mexico and China are also linked to the deaths of Americans. Each has flooded our country with...

When Israel is attacked, Joe Biden's administration blathers about restraint. Knocking on heaven’s door. The way things are going, that is what we all may be doing soon, whether we wish to or not. As if the Russia-Ukraine War, China threat, migrant crisis, rampant inflation, and surging crime rates weren’t enough, we now have a war in the Middle East, with thousands of innocents injured, captured, or dead. Perhaps worst of all, none of these things had to happen. (Israel has, on more than one occasion, offered the Palestinians a two-state solution — their own state — and has been...

The State Department was slammed by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Saturday for posting a now-deleted tweet urging Israel to “refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks” with Hamas. Hamas militants attacked Israel by shooting missiles into towns as well as executing civilians, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of civilians on Saturday. However, President Joe Biden addressed the nation in a televised speech hours after the attack, reaffirming the United States’ commitment to standby Israel. The attack was the largest organized attack on Israel in decades as multiple towns near Gaza were invaded. The U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs posted...

Fox News‘ Tucker Carlson again criticized the Trump administration’s escalation of conflict with Iran, questioning why some of the same officials were trusting the “deep state” intelligence agencies that they had viewed with skepticism before. Soon after news broke that Donald Trump ordered an airstrike that killed Iran’s military leader Qasem Soleimani, Carlson has been questioning the rationale and wisdom for the move, seeing it as a prelude to a wider conflict. The Tucker Carlson Tonight host diverged from his own support of Trump, along with other Fox News hosts who have backed the president’s action wholeheartedly. On a Monday...

Has land for peace ever worked — even lately? We’ll get to that in a moment, but first let’s look at a critical moment in the Russian offensive in Donbas. If Putin wants to force a face-saving settlement, he needs to win a decisive battle to secure an area that he, um, largely controlled by proxy before the invasion. Reuters casts the ongoing battle on the Siverskiy Donets river as Putin’s last, best hope to get out with some claim of victory:The decisive battles of the war’s latest phase are still raging further south, where Moscow is attempting to seize...

Secretary of State Antony Blinken and the White House claim to be pleased by his trip to Beijing: President Xi Jinping actually met with him and agreed to continue talking. Thing is, it seems China will only deign to keep talking as long as Washington keeps appeasing it with actual concessions. Blinken didn’t even get his central ask, restoring military-to-military communication channels that Beijing cut last year but the Bidenites paint as the best way to avoid stumbling into a war. (Indeed, the Chinese Communists still won’t even meet with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.) Crucially, Washington had to bribe Beijing...

Ron DeSantis came out against our current blank check n’ hack cliches Ukraine policy, stating the indisputable truth that Ukraine was not a vital US interest worthy of risking World War III with Russia. The next day he was proven right when a Russian SU-27 knocked a US Reaper drone into the Black Sea. Hey, feeding Russians (and Ukrainians) into a meat grinder is all fun and games until we get dragged into the abattoir too. Of course, all the right people got really mad about it – when Bill Kristol, Adam Kinzinger, David French, Max Boot and Mitt Romney...

Former President Donald Trump, who is running for re-election in 2024, on Thursday released a video statement calling for “peace without delay” in Ukraine and for ending the “entire globalist Neo-Con establishment.”“Every day this proxy battle in Ukraine continues, we risk global war. We must be absolutely clear that our objective is to IMMEDIATELY have a total cessation of hostilities. All shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need PEACE without delay,” he said in the video, according to a transcript.#AGENDA47: President Trump on the difference between the globalist establishment class, and those who are truly committed...

“Every day this proxy battle in Ukraine continues, we risk global war,” President Trump said. “We must be absolutely clear that our objective is to IMMEDIATELY have a total cessation of hostilities. All shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need PEACE without delay.” “There must also be a complete commitment to dismantling the entire globalist neo-con establishment that is perpetually dragging us into endless wars, pretending to fight for freedom and democracy abroad, while they turn us into a third-world country and a third-world dictatorship right here at home. The State Department, the defense bureaucracy, the...

The former president told Sean Hannity’s radio show:...Mr Trump added: “That’s without even negotiating a deal. I could have negotiated. At worst, I could have made a deal to take over something, you know, there are certain areas that are Russian speaking areas, right, like, but you could have worked a deal. And now Ukraine is just being blown to smithereens.”

Possible deal to end the conflict in Ukraine."NATO, the Pentagon, and the Biden regime are in way over their heads i.e. I would describe the situation as FUBAR, US military slang acronym for 'Fouled up Beyond Any Recognition'. The best deal the US could hope for now would be very much worse than the deal that Boris Johnson squelched in Istanbul last spring. All the US should be tryinig to do at this point is save some modicum of face and, if possible, undo some of the self-inflicted damage."

While Americans were focused on a Chinese spy balloon making its way across the country, the Biden administration quietly released an al Qaeda terrorist radicalized by the September 11 attacks from Guantanamo Bay. The Pentagon announced on Thursday that Majid Khan, 42, was moved to Belize after spending 16 years in CIA custody. Authorities have maintained he was a close personal ally of al Qaeda leader Khalid Sheikh Mohammed who helped deliver money and transport other senior terrorists. And under Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's plans, Khan would have attacked US gas stations and water reservoirs.

Russian President Vladimir Putin waited only six months before switching from a special military operation to full scale war against Ukraine. Putin's initial assault was limited to barely 150,000 troops. He expected a quick victory followed by negotiations on his principal concerns: Russian control of Crimea, Ukrainian neutrality, and autonomy for the Russian population in the Donbas, but he was wrong. Putin had not counted on Ukraine's stiff resistance or the West's massive military and economic intervention. Faced with a new situation, Putin changed his strategy. Now he is about to unleash his own General Sherman and make Ukraine howl....
