The US is complicit in Israels strikes on its archrivals nuclear sites, the journalist said

US President Donald Trump's support for Israel's strikes in Iran could spark an "all-out war" in the Middle East, American journalist Tucker Carlson has warned.

Early Friday morning, Israeli jets bombed nuclear and military sites across Iran, prompting Tehran to retaliate with a barrage of drones and missiles targeting Israeli cities. The escalation threatens ongoing negotiations over Iran's nuclear program, which Trump revived earlier this year.

In what he described as possibly his "final newsletter before all-out war," Carlson - a key Trump ally during the 2024 presidential election - argued that the US was "complicit in the act of war."

"While the American military may not have physically perpetrated the assault, years of funding and sending weapons to Israel, which Donald Trump just bragged about on Truth Social, undeniably place the US at the center of last night's events," Carlson wrote.

"Washington knew these attacks would happen. They aided Israel in carrying them out. Politicians purporting to be 'America First' can't now credibly turn around and say they had nothing to do with it," he added.

In a post on X, Carlson contended that "the real divide" is not between supporters of Israel or Iran, but "between warmongers and peacemakers."

"Who are the warmongers? They would include anyone who's calling Donald Trump today to demand air strikes and other direct US military involvement in a war with Iran," he said. Carlson stated that the "warmongers" include talk show hosts Sean Hannity and Mark Levin, media mogul Rupert Murdoch, and Republican donors Ike Perlmutter and Miriam Adelson.

While the US State Department has denied involvement in the strikes, Trump confirmed he had prior knowledge of the Israeli operation and praised the attacks as "excellent." He blamed Iran for the hostilities and accused it of refusing to accept the terms of his proposed nuclear deal.

Addressing the UN Security Council, Iranian envoy Amir Saeid Iravani said the US and other Israeli allies "share full responsibility for the consequences" of Israel's actions.
