Calculated Lies Against The Jewish State: Tucker Carlson’s Venomous Inquisition

Reprinted from Harbinger’s Daily
When U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee sat down with Tucker Carlson, whom he has known for 30 years, he expected a lively interview; what he got was a venomous inquisition.
The interview with Huckabee took place at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, a location chosen after Carlson refused to venture into the streets of Israel. It was an obvious slight, but only the first of many during his hours-long visit.
Seeking to stir up publicity and draw more unwarranted outrage against the nation of Israel, Carlson claimed to have been forcibly detained and mistreated by Israeli authorities while at the airport. This allegation was proven false by Israel, the Airport Authority, and the U.S. Embassy, all of whom rejected the claims that he experienced anything beyond standard procedure. Carlson’s bizarre accusation of mistreatment was further diminished when footage emerged of him laughing, smiling, and taking pictures with an officer during the supposed detainment.
This blatant and deliberate falsehood against Israel was a perfect precursor to the release of an interview that would follow the same disgraceful trickery.
Carlson’s disrespectful treatment of the U.S. Ambassador, coupled with his unending list of baseless accusations, was truly appalling.
Israel was accused of genocide, shielding pedophiles, abusing Christians, and pulling the strings of power in Washington, D.C. The Jewish people, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, were accused of not being Jewish at all. Huckabee was accused of favoring Israel over the United States, covering up Israel’s “bad actions,” and—ironically—twisting Scripture to justify Zionism.
Even God did not escape the condemnation of this supposed “Christian,” with Carlson accusing the Lord of genocide, also.
The Ambassador stated afterwards that it was more of an “interrogation” and “playing gotcha” than an interview. Huckabee would begin to dispute the unfounded conspiracies—correcting the record with Scripture, international law, history, statistics, and his first-hand experience in diplomatic work—only to be cut off almost immediately.
The Ambassador’s ability to respond was so hampered during the interview that he deemed it necessary to publish his answers in full afterward on social media, along with the overwhelming proof to back up his statements.
It was noted by the Ambassador that the same ill-treatment was not extended to Carlson’s other interviewees, with guests who brazenly gushed over Adolf Hitler speaking at length without any pushback.
To state the obvious, Carlson wasn’t interested in Huckabee’s answers or uncovering the truth. His stunt against Israeli airport authorities proves his lies are calculated, not done out of ignorance. Carlson came to Israel with one agenda: to deceive.
Daniel Cohen, News Director of the Real Life Network, responded to the Carlson-Huckabee interview by highlighting Tucker’s deliberate attempts to foment hatred against Israel and the Jewish people.
“Tucker is a snake,” Cohen stated plainly. “His deceptive trap is leading people away from the truth, just like the serpent in the Garden of Eden.”
“Tucker has been exposed, not by his enemies, but by his own mouth. By his own choices. By the company he keeps and the lies he tells about a country he spent a few hours at an airport NOT visiting,” he continued. “And Huckabee? He called him out. To his face. Corrected the record. Defended Israel. Defended the truth. Defended his faith.”
Cohen then explained why even one of the most formidable defenders of Christian Zionism, equipped with logic and reason, was unable to crack through Carlson’s hardened vitriol.
“Proverbs 27:17 says, ‘As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.’” Cohen noted. “You can sharpen iron. You can’t sharpen a snake.”
