If we are going to start culling allies based on the fact they have spied on us, or us on them, then we aren't going to have any allies.

Hell, we've done it with abandon on our allies for years. I recall a couple of years ago the brouhaha that resulted when a report came out disclosing the extent of our spying operations on European allies.

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/13/us/politics/us-spying-allies.html

Again, if this is truly Tucker's best argument of ridding ourselves of Israel as an ally, holy cow is it woefully unconvincing.

FTR, the country that spies on us the most is Russia. Yet, Tucker continues to sing their praises. Guess it just depends on whose ox is being gored.


Only a ****** Boomer would actually believe Russia is America's biggest spy threat.

The cold war ended 40 years ago sir!

Israel is America's biggest security threat and this has been reported ad nauseum. Even a modicum of effort researching this would make it abundantly clear.

We shouldn't be giving free handouts to a country that steals our confidential information and interferes in our elections.

Israel's proxy's should be required to register as foreign agents under FARA like every other country on Earth.

Dual citizenship should be abolished - my roots are so deep in this country I can't claim citizenship anywhere else so its only fair every else here makes the decision what country their true loyalty lies with.

The idea another country should be able to have free reign to do whatever the hell it wants with zero repercussions and that if they get caught, Boomers will deflect away by saying we were doing the same is so weak its no wonder Boomer have run this once great country off a cliff!


It's generation X, *****.

And this post is further proof you have horrid reading comprehension. What happened millennial did you fail hooked on phonics?

I did not say that Russia was our biggest spy threat. I said they spy on us the most which is a demonstrably true statement.

Honestly, you're just a ****ing moron.


Chimping out again... another sign of your low intelligence.

You are a utter embarrassment and incapable of taking criticism.

Here's an interesting article on Tucker Carlson going off the deep end:

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2025/06/at_2025_06_16.html
Anyone who uses the fake term "woke right" automatically blows their cover as a zionist neocon running cover for Israel. Thats just an op ed from a zio who hates anyone who calls out Israel.


I understand why someone who subscribes to such views would take offense being called woke. However, it is quite ironic, how much their views align with each other.
No actually, "woke right" is not a thing. Its a completely astroturfed term made popular by an atheist named James Lindsey who is paid off by Zionists to demonize those on the right who dont support Israel. If you are a Paleocon who supports America and doesnt want your tax dollars and armed men and woment to go fight for Israel you are smeared with the fake term "woke right". All this is is neocons trying to coopt the Maga movement back into line and back on the repub establishment. They did this to the tea party and they've done it to MAGA.

I'm generally pretty strong anti-interventionist. But not totally isolationist. I was against going into Iraq. Not enough of a real credible threat, no real tie to 9/11. Saddam's ego got him because he wouldn't admit what he didn't have. There are parallels here. But there are also sharp contrasts. Mullah terrorists with a long track record of threatening and harming not just their Zionist foils but also US citizens, in Iran and around the Middle East and the US. Also, more reason to be worried about Iran's long-term desire to develop nukes. Also, some reason to think the Persians have a deeper bench of options behind this regime than Iraq had behind Saddam. Still, if the Mullahs would give up their nuclear chase and show their cards, fine, we are all good. We can keep sparing them the ass kicking they've been begging for the last few decades. But if they won't, you can only make that mistake in one direction. We can live with a false positive. Can't live with a false negative. That combined with Israel as your dog of war ... about as good a combo as you're going to get. Take out the Mullahs' nuclear assets (which also requires taking out most of the rest of their military assets). Whatever happens next happens. Hopefully the Iranian people step up. Plenty of other people around the ME silently rooting for the Zionists to get rid of the Mullahs and simplify their lives. Will be interesting.

B 52's are so obsolete its ridiculous.

IMO they are more dangerous to their air crews than anything else we've got flying.


Hey now ... those beauties are the greatest planes in U.S. history.

I am probably the only one who thinks the biggest tragedy of this conflict is the dirty Jews destruction of the last of the F-14s in service.

I regret voting for Ted Cruz...


Tucker ever the pompous ass. He's so silly with his little game of gotcha.

Cruz is smarter by far but silly to go on his show, knowing this is what he and his team do - try to embarrass those they disagree with.

Coping hard here... knowledge is power... this is why neocons always lose wars and make America poorer and weaker
Tell me the relevance of the population of Iran, or what version of Islam they subscribe to, in deciding whether to strike at its nuclear capabilities and ballistic missiles. I truly am open to the possibility those things have some bearing on that decision, and Tucker's questions weren't designed to instead make Cruz look foolish by proving he doesn't know the answer to irrelevant questions. Knowledge is power, as you say, so please tell us how those two factors weighed for or against the strikes at issue.

Good luck millennial!


Everytime the US has gotten involved in a Middle East war there has been a mass displacement of Muslim refugees into Europe and America.

Iran is twice as large as Iraq almost 4x that of Syria. Destabilizing the country would create a catastrophic refugee crisis... as as we've seen in the past the Gulf Arabs will take our bribes to not attack Israel, but they won't lift a finger to help the refugees from America's ill conceived wars.

Only a complete idiot or a corrupt SOB would be so cavalier about going to war... which one is Cruz?


That's utter bull***** There have been plenty of skirmishes throughout the Middle East that didn't result in a mass displacement of immigrants to America. Moreover, I watched Tucker's interview and it's entirety, and he never mentioned that as a concern.

You're just spinning at this point.

A bit humorous you argue against the term as made-up, and then introduce made up terms (Paleocon?) in the post in which you're arguing against made up terms. And of course, as always, its the Jews responsible for everything (another commonality with the woke left).

I think there is a good argument to be made you guys share much in common: 1) an incalcitrant attitude, intolerant of any beliefs that diverge from your own, which often times leads to demonization of opponents; 2) a common hatred/strong dislike for Israel/Jews, and a shared belief they are responsible for many of the world's ills; 3) sympathetic toward Russia (though for different reasons); 4) an adoption of the "oppressor/oppressed" view of the world (with the federal govt. the number one oppressor of both): 5) a susceptibility to conspiracy theories; and 6) a common belief that you suffer unfair disadvantages due to current societal structures and ideologies.

Those beliefs could describe both of the extremes of the political spectrum.

Paleocon is not a made up term. Paleocon is the platform of Pat Buchanan and accurately describled the republican party before the late 70s when it was taken over by the neocons and became the controlled oppostion party. Instead of doing whats right for Americans in America we became the pro Israel pro empire party. You really should take some time to educate yourself about the beginnings of the neocons, read the Clean Break memo, become familiar with who wrote it and quit telling everyone theyre just a conspiracy theorist bc you are not familiar with the topic.

So, Paleocon isn't made up (even though Buchanan coined it?) and Woke Left is? Interesting. Sounds like they were both made up. You just simply disagree with the Woke Right definition (though as pointed out above, you guys share MUCH in common).

Quite familiar with the beginnings of the neo-con movement. One of the reasons I think Bush II will go down as one of the worst presidents in modern history. But like Wilson above, I am not pacifist or isolationist, as I think that also leads to dangerous policy.

I think the problem for a lot of you guys is there is no middle ground or happy medium. It's a set of binary choices in your book. It's what causes you to defend countries that are state sponsors of terrorism and have killed or maimed thousands of Americans. I reject that premise, just as I reject the idea that the Jews are responsible for the world's ills.

I mean, when your leader is a bleached blonde horse-faced twit who believes in Jewish space lasers, you might consider your ideas are a bit kooky.

What's fringe is wanting peace or wanting total destruction and ending this swiftly. DC wants a long drawn out war.

You've pointed out one person who said we should do whatever is necessary to ensure Iran is no longer a nuclear threat, and apparently believe that is proof that some large segment of our party or the admin wants to put troops in harm's way to effect regime change in Iran.

Look, I get the aversion to the neocon mindset. I have it as well. But that's not what's going on here.

Let's assume you're both right. At what point is it okay to attack deplorable "thoughts?"

Also, why do we ignore that "traditionally" being a nuclear country has in itself been a deterrent against aggression, especially atomic aggression?

To me, this looks and feels like Iraq, again.

Who watches that guy and listens to him?? He has the worst voice ever. His ratings have to be horrible. I'm convinced he's CIA.


same people that listen to this guy but older and Ben is in direct contact with Netanyahu regularly.
Well, except for the fact he's said nothing of the sort, but ok.

B 52's are so obsolete its ridiculous.

IMO they are more dangerous to their air crews than anything else we've got flying.


Hey now ... those beauties are the greatest planes in U.S. history.

I am probably the only one who thinks the biggest tragedy of this conflict is the dirty Jews destruction of the last of the F-14s in service.
Two of us.

Ted Cruz is the type of guy to let his best friend go through his work emails while he's sleeping with his wife...
If we are going to start culling allies based on the fact they have spied on us, or us on them, then we aren't going to have any allies.

Hell, we've done it with abandon on our allies for years. I recall a couple of years ago the brouhaha that resulted when a report came out disclosing the extent of our spying operations on European allies.

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/13/us/politics/us-spying-allies.html

Again, if this is truly Tucker's best argument of ridding ourselves of Israel as an ally, holy cow is it woefully unconvincing.

FTR, the country that spies on us the most is Russia. Yet, Tucker continues to sing their praises. Guess it just depends on whose ox is being gored.


Only a ****** Boomer would actually believe Russia is America's biggest spy threat.

The cold war ended 40 years ago sir!

Israel is America's biggest security threat and this has been reported ad nauseum. Even a modicum of effort researching this would make it abundantly clear.

We shouldn't be giving free handouts to a country that steals our confidential information and interferes in our elections.

Israel's proxy's should be required to register as foreign agents under FARA like every other country on Earth.

Dual citizenship should be abolished - my roots are so deep in this country I can't claim citizenship anywhere else so its only fair every else here makes the decision what country their true loyalty lies with.

The idea another country should be able to have free reign to do whatever the hell it wants with zero repercussions and that if they get caught, Boomers will deflect away by saying we were doing the same is so weak its no wonder Boomer have run this once great country off a cliff!


It's generation X, *****.

And this post is further proof you have horrid reading comprehension. What happened millennial did you fail hooked on phonics?

I did not say that Russia was our biggest spy threat. I said they spy on us the most which is a demonstrably true statement.

Honestly, you're just a ****ing moron.


Chimping out again... another sign of your low intelligence.

You are an utter embarrassment and incapable of taking criticism.


Says the millennial snowflake who had a nuclear meltdown when he learned Israel was bombing Iran.

That thread will go down in infamy. It established you once and for all the biggest pariah on this board.


You are the value brand version of ATL_Bear or sombear... those guys share your globalist, America Last views but at least they can come up with cogent and compelling arguments. They are capable of critical thinking and have made me look foolish a time or two without the need to resort to ad hominens.

We do share one thing in common Mothra, we both have oversized egos and think we are more intelligent than we really are.

ATL and sombear are a distant 2&3 in that category. What you don't realize is you are your own worst enemy …and your not even Jewish.

I'm not arguing for regime change but just pointing out he only listed the failures as there are many over the last 20 years that have changed regimes and been successful. Or at least not war zones.

If you question why we do forever wars or who is really running the show then you're fired.

You don't do it publicly. It's a topic for discussion when joint chiefs meet but it is not a topic for him to post on social media.

Argue, haggle, plead, present evidence all you can during the meeting. But, if you go against the admin in social media you should be and will be fired.
