Fox News' Tucker Carlson slammed 'chest-beaters' for 'choosing' war with Iran over US problems, but he didn't call out Trump
The host also said "no one in Washington is in the mood for big picture questions right now," and suggested that the 19-year combat in Afghanistan should be a sign not to pursue more military action in the Middle East."'Is Iran really the greatest threat we face?'" he asked, proposing his own questions for Washington leaders.
Carlson also targeted Republican Senator Ben Sasse, who described the assassination of Soleimani as "very simple" in a statement and said "General Soleimani is dead because he was an evil bastard who murdered Americans." The host called him a "chest-beater" making "war-like noises" and added that Mexico and China are both linked to the deaths of Americans but no politicians are calling for the bombing of Oaxaca or the assassinations of generals in the People's Liberation Army.
"Soleimani was certainly a bad guy. But does that make killing him quote 'Very simple?' It does not," Carlson said. "Nothing about life and certainly nothing about killing is ever 'very simple' and any politician that tells you otherwise is dumb or is lying."
