As Iranian ballistic missiles rain down on Tel Aviv, and US forces are reportedly helping to repel them, Tucker Carlson has called out those who seem to want the US to get involved as “warmongers.”
The Iranian counterstrike came after Israel launched a massive campaign of precision strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and missile sites.
Scientists involved with Iranian nuclear work were also reportedly directly targeted for assassination, along with Iranian Revolutionary Guard leadership.
President Trump declared Friday morning that Iran must make a deal immediately before it is completely obliterated.
It may already be too late though as Israel says “red lines” have been crossed by Iran targeting civilian areas in Tel Aviv.

Taking to X in response to the escalation, Tucker Carlson wrote “The real divide isn’t between people who support Israel and people who support Iran or the Palestinians.”
“The real divide is between those who casually encourage violence, and those who seek to prevent it — between warmongers and peacemakers,” he added.
“Who are the warmongers?” Carlson continued, emphasising “They would include anyone who’s calling Donald Trump today to demand air strikes and other direct US military involvement in a war with Iran.”
He then went on to name “Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Rupert Murdoch, Ike Perlmutter and Miriam Adelson.”
“At some point they will all have to answer for this, but you should know their names now,” Carlson urged.

Tucker has for the past several years now warned that it would be catastrophic for the US to get dragged into a war involving Iran, highlighting the potential for thousands of US military casualties and economic collapse due to surging oil prices.
Carlson has argued that fears of Iran’s nuclear capabilities are being exaggerated by neoconservative factions, and has dismissed claims that Iran poses an imminent threat.
He published this monster post earlier this week (click through to read) that has garnered over 7 million views.
Mark Levin was at the White House today, lobbying for war with Iran. To be clear, Levin has no plans to fight in this or any other war. He’s demanding that American troops do it. We need to stop Iran from building nuclear weapons, he and likeminded ideologues in Washington are…

Tucker has repeatedly warned that American involvement would risk a “all out world war,” with Iran’s allies potentially escalating the conflict beyond US capacity to manage.
Carlson’s has gone so far as predicting that the US could “lose” a war with Iran, citing Pentagon estimates of massive casualties at American military bases in the region.
During his latest podcast this week, Carlson spoke with economist and analyst Jeffrey Sachs who argued that the US deep state is pushing for catastrophic wars with both Iran and Russia.
Sachs expressed confidence that the Trump administration could avoid being drawn into such conflicts, particularly emphasising the potential for Trump to end the Ukraine war.
The interview sparked varied reactions, with some praising Sachs’ insights while others criticized him as a globalist advocating for UN-led governance.

the first one who ought to have his head roll is trump.
Trump needs to stand trial for mass murder (Americans, Palestinians), the murder of Soleimani, illegal aggressive warfare in Ukraine and Iran and too many other crimes to count.
But, in lieu of that, seeing the orange f**kers head rolling around on the floor would be most …. entertaining.
@RDavis : you know it’s Biden who pushed for war with Russia ? It’s isnt Trump. And absolutly no american troops are in Gaza. So stop lying and go consult a psychiatrist. We know that you are a leftist and, like all leftists, you have a shitty life but that’s not an excuse to be a SOB.
Leftists are mentally ill psychopaths
Just a week ago Carlson was citing the “fact” of Iran not being anywhere near having a viable nuclear weapon as evidenced by Israel having not taken any action against Iran. He boldly claimed (as if he knew) that IF Iran were near creating a nuclear weapon as evidenced… Israel would attack.
Well, I’m generally on Tucker’s side in his pleas for peace, love, and harmony throughout the world … and for the USA to stop our idiotic wars and war spending that go nowhere. But in all reality … Iran simply cannot be allowed to become a nuclear Islamic Theocracy. Not when their leaders consider mass death to be Holy or something.
And I do hope Trump is wise-enough to walk this tightrope of supporting Israel without directly engaging Iran. No, we don’t need WWIII. But I DO blame Jimmy Carter, Barrack Hussein Obama, and Valerie Jarrett for enabling the INSANE Islamic Theocracy. In fact, I hope Valerie is sitting in one of her lavish estates weeping today. I hope Barrack is getting love and support from one of his buddies ant one of his oceanfront mansions. And Jimmy? He’s as dead as John McCain. Meh.
