Tucker Carlson recently drew attention while broadcasting from Qatar—a place where power, money, media, and American military infrastructure converge—using that setting to challenge long-standing assumptions about U.S. foreign alliances, particularly Israel.
According to multiple reports, Carlson criticized U.S. policy toward Israel, describing the country—home to roughly nine million people—as insignificant and lacking natural resources, with its strategic relevance, he argued, deriving primarily from the American security guarantee. By contrast, he suggested that the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations provide more essential assets to the United States. . .
