🚨 EXCLUSIVE — Tucker Carlson DOUBLED DOWN on attacking Chabad, saying (falsely) that they support "violence against innocents." Tucker also reiterated that "at the center" of the "religious war" in Iran is "the Third Temple," adding that Chabad "is in favor of rebuilding the Third Temple." Some apology. As I had exclusively reported, Tucker on March 4 indicated that Chabad was ultimately behind the war in Iran. Tucker futher — and equally falsely — claimed that this was because Chabad was supposedly a driving force in wanting to destroy the Al Aqsa Mosque in order to rebuild Judaism's holy Temple, or beit hamikdash in Hebrew. After receiving enormous blowback for his comments, Tucker gave what his loyalists have called an apology. It was not. Tucker simply did not address his outrageous assertion that Chabad was agitating for the "destruction of one of the holiest places in Islam." As for the rest of his previous Chabad comments, he simply lied about what he had actually said, pretending as if he had merely commented on patches worn by some soldiers depicting what Tucker insists is the Third Temple. For good measure, he added in the new slander that Chabad actually supports "violence against innocents." To be clear, this is a long-running theme for Tucker over the past year, claiming that Jews, "neocons," and/or Israel have bloodlust and "get a thrill" from murdering people. Crucially, Tucker explicitly stated that it was "true" that the "Third Temple" was "at the center" of what he deemed a "religious war" in Iran. Then he had the audacity to tie it all back to Chabad, saying, "And Chabad, check their website, is in favor of rebuilding the Third Temple." Tucker, however, must not have actually checked the Chabad website. That's because the Chabad website states that the Third Temple, or beit hamikdash, can only be rebuilt by God, and only once Moshiach (or the Messiah) has come. What does the Chabad website actually say about how to usher in this divine state of being? "Perform more acts of goodness and kindness" At no point does Tucker reveal that Chabad wants the Third Temple to come not through violence, let alone war, but rather by people performing "acts of goodness and kindness." Perhaps Tucker simply can't wrap his head around this concept, which animates the very essence of Chabad. Why? Because the new Tucker is neither good nor kind.
