Tucker Carlson clashes with Israeli journalist over Iran and Gaza
A heated exchange shows growing US conservative pushback against Israel, bad news for Israel's standing among its traditional American allies.
- An Israeli guest argues that giving in to Iran would put Americans and Israelis at risk, citing Trump's view.
- Tucker rejects the "terror regime" label for Iran while Israel's war in Gaza has killed thousands of children.
- Israel is called out as not a real democracy because millions under its control cannot vote.
- The October 7 attacks do not justify killing children, and universal moral rules apply to both sides.
- The clash highlights a deepening split on the American right over backing Israel without question.
Outlook: Expect more public friction between pro-Israel voices and influential US conservatives as the Gaza war drags on.
