Khaberni - Tucker Carlson is considered one of the most prominent media personalities and political commentators in the United States. He posted today, Thursday, an episode through his accounts on social media platforms titled: "How does the US-funded Israeli government deal with Christians in the Holy Land?".
In the episode, Carlson hosted Hossam Naoum, the Archbishop of Jerusalem, who spoke about settlers' attacks on Christian villages and communities. The episode garnered more than 1.8 million views on the platform "X" in just 10 hours.
As the episode spread on social media platforms, the US Ambassador in Tel Aviv, Mike Huckabee, entered the fray, sending a message to Tucker saying: "Instead of talking about me, why not speak with me directly? It seems you stir up a lot of controversy about the Middle East. Why are you afraid of the truth?"
To which Tucker Carlson replied: "Thank you very much. I am pleased with that. We will be in touch with your office today to schedule an interview. Thank you very much."
Twitter users commented on this exchange between Huckabee and Tucker by saying that the US ambassador "has put himself in a difficult position", noting that Tucker has a broad religious and political background, and that the difference between the two is that "one uses logic, making him strong and effective, whereas the other uses religious myths that convince only those who believe in them."
Activists stated that Tucker Carlson, within a few hours, shed light on one of the biggest Israeli lies about the conditions of Christians in Palestine, confirming that the Christian world will soon wake up to the "20th century deception," and that injustice is not limited to Muslims in the occupied territories, but also extends to Christians inside Israel. Others recalled how Israel bombed churches in Gaza during its war on the sector.
Observers believe that these discussions require serious global action, calling for a world summit to discuss hate crimes and racism and ways to reduce them. Alongside this, launching media campaigns and focused news bulletins to highlight these violations and consistently present them to the international public opinion.
