A no-holds-barred confrontation just exploded in Israel between Mike Huckabee, Trump's U.S. ambassador and ex-Arkansas governor, and firebrand commentator Tucker Carlson.
Huckabee didn't hold back, blasting Carlson face-to-face for peddling what he slammed as a "reckless and false" accusation that Israeli forces gunned down a young Gaza boy, all based on an interview with a guy Huckabee called a "known liar," Tony Aguilar.
Huckabee zeroed in on Carlson's platforming of Aguilar, who spun a gut-wrenching tale: He claimed he witnessed IDF soldiers shoot the kid dead after the boy kissed his hand. But Huckabee fired back with the bombshell, the story crumbled because the boy was found alive and reunited with his family, and Aguilar? He's allegedly a disgraced figure who got canned for reasons tied to credibility issues.
Carlson wasn't having it, he got red-hot agitated, shoving back hard on Huckabee's facts, grilling the sources, and flat-out rejecting the takedown (or more accurately, Huckabee's presenting him with cold hard facts which don't fit into his anti-Israel narrative).
