"Threats in the region? If you don't live in Washington, here's the translation: That would be in hostile Middle Eastern countries," Carlson said. "Places where American troops would never be in the first place, were it not for the insistent demands of nongeniuses like Max Boot and John Bolton."
"But never mind, no one in Washington is in the mood for big-picture questions right now. Questions, the obvious ones, like: 'Is Iran really the greatest threat we face?' and 'Who is actually benefiting from this?'"
Thousands of Iraqis marched through the streets of Baghdad shouting "Death to America" during the Saturday funeral processions of Soleimani and al Muhandis.
Carlson, 50, then ripped Republican Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse, calling him a "chest-beater" and a "very tough character" who was making the "usual warlike noises" since the airstrikes.
Carlson claimed that "Washington has wanted war with Iran for decades" and referenced an August Gallup poll that showed only 18% of Americans "backed military force to shut down Iran's nuclear program."
