During a recent interview host Tucker Carlson questioned Ted Cruz about U.S. policy toward Iran, pressing him on his lack of basic knowledge about the country while accusing him of advocating reckless military intervention. Cruz awkwardly admits he doesn’t know Iran’s population, despite calling for regime change, and the exchange becomes increasingly combative as Carlson challenged the Texas senator’s credibility. 

Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence show note that Carlson gets Cruz to reveal that the U.S. is already backing Israeli strikes against Iran—contradicting official government statements. The hosts argue the push for war is being driven by pro-Israel influence and propaganda, echoing the prelude to the Iraq War. They also urge viewers, especially Trump supporters, to withhold all political support if Trump endorses military action, emphasizing the catastrophic consequences of war with Iran.

Plus segments on the likely consequences of war between the United States and Iran with Iranian professor Mohammad Marandi and the most common responses trauma surgeon Dr. Feroze Sidhwa receives when he tells people about working in a Gaza hospital.
