Tucker Carlson on Friday sharply criticized Israel’s recent military strikes on Iran and rebuked prominent media personalities and GOP donors he claims are pressuring President Donald Trump to escalate U.S. involvement.
“Who are the warmongers? They would include anyone who’s calling Donald Trump today to demand air strikes and other direct US military involvement,” Carlson wrote on X. He named Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Mark Levin, media mogul Rupert Murdoch, former Marvel CEO Ike Perlmutter, and Republican mega-donor Miriam Adelson.
Carlson said the divide on the right is not over support for Israel or Iran, but between “those who casually encourage violence” and “those who seek to prevent it.”
Levin fired back, calling Carlson a “reckless and deceitful propagandist” who promotes conspiracy theories and antisemitism.
Carlson also accused U.S. leaders of being complicit in Israel’s actions, stating that America’s military aid effectively made Washington a party to the attacks. Trump, for his part, has warned Iran of “much worse” consequences if a nuclear deal isn’t reached soon.
The exchange comes amid heightened tensions following Israel’s strike, which killed multiple top Iranian officials and prompted Iranian missile retaliation.
