« White House has discussed U.S. military response if Hezbollah attacks Israel | Israel Plans to Turn Gaza Into 'Hiroshima' But Without Nuclear Weapons - Sy Hersh » |
In early October, the Palestinian group Hamas launched a surprise large-scale rocket attack on Israel from the Gaza Strip and breached the border, killing and seizing people in neighboring Israeli communities. Israel responded with retaliatory strikes and ordered a complete blockade of the Gaza Strip. | The US will lose in the war in the Middle East if Russia, China and Turkiye are drawn into it, said former Fox News journalist Tucker Carlson in his program on social network X (formerly Twitter).
"The stakes are much higher than many Americans realize. It is easy to imagine several other countries being drawn into the conflict between Israel and Hamas. These countries include Russia, Iran, Turkiye, China, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states, and probably many others," Carlson said.
According to the journalist, some may support Israel and the US, but most of the countries involved in the conflict will join forces against Washington.
"And that's going to be a problem. The US military is weaker than it has been in the past 50 years," Carlson said. The journalist added that the US Army has been exhausted by two senseless conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan and has been fragmented from within by the Pentagon's "buffoonish" policies.
