Tucker Carlson on Iran:

Everybody knows the only reason we're having this war is because Israel wants it. This is their last chance.

This presidency is the last presidency where they're going to have unequivocal bipartisan support. Period.

You can't primary every Thomas Massie, and there's a whole army of them coming at some point because everyone can see what's going on. And you can shut down X, and you can just shut down the internet.

You can be like Great Britain and arrest people who protest Israel, but attitudes are not going to revert to what they were five years ago. Sorry. And they know this. So this is their last chance.

What's so amazing is that Israel, which at least is acting in what it perceives to be its own national interest, is joined by its shills in the United States, of course. But really, its only other ally in this is the American news media, whose job it is to tell you the truth and inform you as to what's happening — to tell you, hey, wake up, the world could be changing and it's going to affect you and your family. That's their job.

And instead, they've been lulling you to sleep with the same variety of transparent lies and propaganda.

Tucker Carlson on Iran:

Iraq was a true disaster. And Trump was the first big political candidate to say that out loud. He knows this. He always has. So why would he even be considering a war with Iran?

Well, one way to think about it is the United States may not have a choice about whether or not this war starts because, of course, the government of Benjamin Netanyahu could always act unilaterally, preemptively against Iran and just do it — just strike Iran.

What would happen then?

Well, most likely the Iranians would strike Israel and then potentially strike American assets in the Gulf and then potentially strike energy facilities in the Gulf, and the United States would be, by definition, drawn in.

So it's possible that the US government, while not anxious to go to war with Iran, is trying to find a way to contain the behavior of its closest ally, Israel.

Netanyahu:

I owe India a great personal debt. When I met Sara for the first time, I think our first or second date was in an Indian restaurant in Tel Aviv.

And I have to tell you, there is no question. First of all, the food was unbelievable and Sara was introduced to it for the first time.

So, it was a great first date. Not only with the food, the date was excellent, too. So, obviously, I'm indebted to you as are my children.

Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski:

Across Europe, increasingly loud warnings are being voiced about—let us say it plainly—war.

The Prime Minister of Denmark says that Europe which lacks both the capacity and the will to defend itself will eventually perish.

The Chief of the French General Staff warns that the country must be ready—quote—‘to lose children in a potential armed conflict with Russia.’ End quote.

The Secretary General of NATO states—again a quote—‘Russia has brought war back to Europe.’ End quote. And therefore we must be prepared for a conflict on a scale experienced by our grandfathers or great-grandfathers.

The German Minister of Defense does not rule out a scenario in which Russia could be ready to attack a NATO country not in three or four years, but even this year.

Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski:

Last year was a record year in terms of the amounts allocated to humanitarian aid.

When others reduce spending for this purpose, we increase it—by over 20 percent in the course of a single year.

Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski:

Contrary to what Russian propaganda claims, NATO did not expand into the countries of Central Europe. It was we—our countries, the countries of our region, including Poland—who sought membership.

We were escaping the influence of a brutal hegemon, Russia, and moving into the camp of a friendly hegemon, the United States.

Europe benefited from this arrangement—but so did Washington, by pushing threats farther away from its own borders.

Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski:

We have been and will remain a loyal ally of the United States, but we cannot be suckers.

Danish PM Mette Frederiksen calls snap election for March 24, 2026, following U.S. threats over Greenland.
