Tucker Carlson Smacks Down Interviewer on Israel's "Right to Exist": Does Lebanon? Does Gaza?

[munkle]

This is a beautiful smackdown. Don't ever try to out-debate Tucker.



March 21, 2026 Tucker Carlson: "The first thing that Israel did within two weeks of this war starting, which is supposedly existential for them, was take southern Lebanon, take someone else's country, as they have done repeatedly. And no one even mentions that. And so I guess I would be opposed to that because I guess I think Lebanon has a right to exist. I thought Gaza had a right to exist. But I noticed that as soon as we started rights, only one country gets them."

I saw this interview, it was a disaster for the neo-liberal zio-cons.

Tucker Carlson's big mad that Trump cancelled his grift. Good to see a broken clock be right twice a day, though.

Making a living is now. . . "grifting?"

What indication do you have that he does not now believe in what he does?

I've watched his entire career since his MSNBC days. The dude's opinion is whatever will make him the most money, even if he happens to be right sometimes.

They have a right to exist..but they've always had that right. The problem is, they don't return the favor to Palestinians right to exist in the land that they all shared before the Limey's showed up and bleeped everything up. The Israeli government behaves like the biggest bully on the block in the Middle East. All with our money and weapons. That, and Bibi actually funnels the cash to start Hamas..who eventually gives him exactly what he and the rest of the Likud party wants..open warfare.

They didn`t pick a random country with a skyscraper to fly a hijacked airliner into. We made ourselves a target. Reap what you sow.

I wonder who he was arguing with there. Anyway of course the question is meaningless, it has purely rhetorical value in such a debate. I suspect it is used as a segue to the Holocaust "Do Jews have a right to exist" and that's how the Zionists like to steer such arguments.

He should have asked her "Did the Third Reich have a right to exist"?

Although what Carlson said is true, people have been saying things like it since the 1940s but it has been rare to see it, very rare, especially in the United States.

So, this is an outright lie.

Israel has always permitted Palestinians and other arabs to live in Israel, provided they don't try to kill jews.

To this day, other religious ethnic groups are permitted to live inside Israel.

Israel even went so far as to give them a strip of land to live on and they could have made it a paradise given it's location.

The Palestinians, of which HAMAS is a part, chose war. They chose poorly as evidence of their thorough ass-whooping.

Israel has always accepted the right to exist for all nations; the problem is, they do not return the favor.

The Third Reich did have a right to exist until they started killing people and attacking other nations unprovoked. IT was then that their right to exist ended.

Israel has done no such thing and yes, I know all about the lies of the left on how Israel started it. I say to that, **** all the way off. They did not, but as we see, they are bringing it to an end.

Can't stand Tucker and his theatrics, but come on this is precious! He won this one easily

Bullshit. If that were the case, there would be no need for Gaza or to crowd Palestinians into the West Bank.
The majority of Palestinians are there to live, work, and move on with their lives.

 

[Churchill]

The Third Reich did have a right to exist until they started killing people and attacking other nations unprovoked. IT was then that their right to exist ended.

Very good, so denying it the right to exist was not to call for the extermination of all Germans, good, I'm glad we agree.

Israel has done no such thing and yes, I know all about the lies of the left on how Israel started it. I say to that, **** all the way off. They did not, but as we see, they are bringing it to an end.

You're in a minority with that view, as were the Nazis at the time with their own claims of being the victim, being a superior race, a divine right to territory, desire to exterminate an entire group etc.

 

[Churchill]

So, this is an outright lie.

No Breakwind, no it hasn't, the Zionists and British began plans for ethnic cleansing of Palestinians during WW1. This was all part of the agreement for wealthy Jews financing Britain's WW1 effort.

To this day, other religious ethnic groups are permitted to live inside Israel.

Israel even went so far as to give them a strip of land to live on and they could have made it a paradise given it's location.

Israel is the recipient of land not the giver. The British gave land to the Zionists that was already occupied and the majority living there were not Jewish. The Arabs went from being colonized by the Turks to being colonized by the colonial British to being dominated by colonizing nationalist Jews.

If I steal 100 acres of land from you, then hand 10 back to you, how can you possibly describe that as me giving you land?

Zionism never existed in Palestine, no Jew there cared for the ridiculous idea, it was imported from Europe and developed from the same rabid nationalism that gave rise to the Hitler and Mussolini.

The Palestinians, of which HAMAS is a part, chose war. They chose poorly as evidence of their thorough ass-whooping.

A people occupied by foreign invaders has a right to even violently resist occupation, that right is embodied in the UN charter.

Israel has always accepted the right to exist for all nations; the problem is, they do not return the favor.

That doesn't matter, even if true, it doesn't matter. The Zionist project is failing and was predicted to fail even by Jews, it is unsustainable to run a nation as it does and expect to live in peace, absolutely ridiculous.

Well, when you make war and follow genocide, this is the result.

 

[Darkwind]

Bullshit. If that were the case, there would be no need for Gaza or to crowd Palestinians into the West Bank.

Not real big on history are you? Before they gave the Palestinians the Gaza Strip, they were blowing up buses, cafes, nightclubs, with bombs. So, no, no bullshit.

Seek help for your hatred.

 

[Darkwind]

Very good, so denying it the right to exist was not to call for the extermination of all Germans, good, I'm glad we agree.

Correct. No one has called for the extermination of the Palestinian people. They have called for the extermination of HAMAS and all their supporters. Rightly so. A more extreme belief system does not exist in comparison to HAMAS.

You're in a minority with that view, as were the Nazis at the time with their own claims of being the victim, being a superior race, a divine right to territory, desire to exterminate an entire group etc.

I'm not in a minority. History tells us that the US considered it a European issue up until Pearl Harbor. The European nations treated it exactly as I described until the attacks began, but by then, it was far too late.

As is most leftist ideals.
