In a surprising turn, Mehdi Hasan, a known critic of U.S. foreign policy, supported Tucker Carlson's statement cautioning against military strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. Carlson outlined the severe repercussions of such an action, including significant loss of American lives and financial costs. Hasan echoed these sentiments, expressing agreement with Carlson's perspective that the U.S. should reconsider its imperialistic interventions, drawing parallels to prolonged military engagements like Afghanistan. This exchange underscores growing divergence within U.S. political commentary regarding foreign policy, particularly that concerning Iran.
A strike on the Iranian nuclear sites will almost certainly result in thousands of American deaths at bases throughout the Middle East, and cost the United States tens of billions of dollars. Those aren't guesses. Those are the Pentagon's own estimates.
I hate to say this but Carlson is 100% correct here, declared Hasan in a quote-tweet, endorsing Tucker Carlson's views on U.S. intervention in Iran.
If we're still in Afghanistan 19 years later, what makes us think there's a quick way out of Iran? Carlson challenges assumptions about U.S. military interventions.
There are an awful lot of bad people in this world. We can't kill them all, it's not our job, Carlson asserts, emphasizing the limitations of U.S. military engagement.
