Tucker Carlson Under Fire: "Anyone Who Supports Israel is a Shill" | WATCH
In a shocking break from the conservative mainstream, Carlson predicts the end of the U.S.-Israel alliance and labels supporters of the Jewish state as "toxic" influencers.
Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson has once again ignited fierce backlash with his latest episode of The Tucker Carlson Show, where he launched an unhinged attack on Israel and its American supporters during a sit-down with journalist Clayton Morris.
In the episode (titled “Israel’s Sinister Agenda to Use the U.S. Military to Defy Trump’s Plan for Peace”), Carlson didn’t hold back. He openly declared that anyone who supports Israel and believes the Jewish state has a right to exist is “a shill.” He then doubled down, claiming that President Trump’s current term will be the last U.S. administration to stand firmly with our strongest Middle East ally.
Carlson’s Exact Words That Crossed the Line
“The only reason we’re having this war is because Israel wants it. They believe this presidency is the last presidency where they’re going to have unequivocal bipartisan support.”
He framed unwavering U.S. backing for Israel, something backed by decades of bipartisan consensus and shared democratic values, as some kind of suspicious “toxic” relationship that drags America into unnecessary conflicts.
This continues Carlson’s pattern of relentless criticism: hammering U.S. aid to Israel, questioning the alliance, and pushing an isolationist “America First” line that treats the Jewish state like just another foreign country rather than a vital strategic partner and the only true democracy in the region.
The timing is especially troubling, coming right after his heated February 21 interview with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, where Carlson grilled the ambassador on biblical claims, aid, and America’s support for Israel.
The reaction has been swift and powerful:
Laura Loomer called out the clip directly, asking “What does he know about 2028?” and warning that Carlson’s rhetoric smells like manufactured division aimed at weakening Trump’s pro-Israel record.
Conservative pro-Israel leaders are slamming the comments as dangerous, noting they echo classic antisemitic tropes about “dual loyalty” and undermine the unbreakable bond between the U.S. and Israel, a relationship that has delivered the Abraham Accords, the Golan Heights recognition, and relentless pressure on Iran’s terror regime.
President Trump’s administration has been one of the most pro-Israel in history: moving the embassy to Jerusalem, brokering historic peace deals, and maintaining strong military cooperation.
Carlson’s prediction that this level of support ends after Trump is being widely rejected as wishful thinking from the isolationist fringe.
The Bottom Line
Supporting Israel’s right to exist as the Jewish homeland, especially after the horrors of October 7, 2023, isn’t being a “shill.” It’s standing with a brave democracy fighting for survival against Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, whcih threaten the US too.
Carlson’s latest outburst isn’t bold truth-telling; it’s an attack on one of America’s most important alliances at a dangerous time.
