For political junkies who cut their teeth on “60 Minutes,” “Meet the Press,” CNN, and Fox News, longform podcasts were a godsend.

But there was an important catch: It only worked when both sides...

1. Saudi Arabia seeks regime change in Iran. 2. US/Israel, EU, Arab neighbors seek (not always admmitedly in public) disarmed nuclear-Iran, especially Israel which has been threatened with annihilation by Islamic fascist Republic. 3.

This was a paid propaganda piece in which over $200,000 was paid by the Embassy of the State of Qatar for Tucker to interview a Qatari official all while knowing HAMAS is an Iranian proxy and funded by Qatar. Qatar funds Islamic terror all around the world and they think they can just pay everyone...
