“Washington has wanted war with Iran for decades.’
Carlson also criticized Republican Sen. Ben Sasse, who had characterized the assassination of Soleimani as “very simple” because “he was an evil bastard who murdered Americans.” Even if that is true, Carlson said, it doesn’t explain why the United States isn’t launching similar attacks against Mexico and China who are also linked to the deaths of Americans. “Soleimani was certainly a bad guy. But does that make killing him quote ‘Very simple?’ It does not,” Carlson said.
Trump, Carlson said, ran for president “on a promise of fewer foreign adventures” and he vowed “to focus on our problems here at home.” Since then, Washington and some of the president’s advisers “have been committed to ignoring the results of that election and its implications. Washington has wanted war with Iran for decades …. They may have finally gotten it.”
Carlson’s skepticism “stood out on a network of outspoken supporters of the president and Thursday’s airstrike,” . Right after Carlson’s show, for example, Sean Hannity began his own show by saying that “the world is safer as one of the most ruthless, evil war criminals on Earth has been brought to justice.”Readers like you make our work possible.
