Based, Tucker! Finally, it takes a reporter to state the obvious and denounce US for allowing women to fight for us in the military when our military men can't and won't!
I was an airline pilot back then. Before the 2nd world trade center attack all air crews were briefed that the terrorist wanted to take over our aircraft and use them as missiles.
Fact.
Why would anyone go fight for the defense contractors? That is who you serve in he military.
@@mikepalmer2219he needed the contractors for security do he could report from there. Did you not listen?
@@Hiberno_sperg - You've got your wires crossed. mikepalmer2219 is referring to the military industrial complex not the individual "mercenaries".
@@mikepalmer2219 exactly, I'm a veteran and I went because I believe I was part of doing good, now I warn people not to put your life on the risk for that industry. They don't even tell us the truth why you're there in the first place, and they don't safe you when you think they will. They can go fight their own wars.
The things these men go through to make sure we all know the truth.
Tucker is a CIA asset.
Journalists get evidence of these things. That’s the whole point. Tucker is lying to you as always
@@noahbrooks8939 Cope
@@noahbrooks8939just say you don’t like him because your liberal overlords told you not to. Dont make it sound like a calculated conclusion bro😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tucker is a REAL man! God fearing, women loving, respected, truth telling, gentleman who serves and protects for all the right reasons!!!
Well said.
you can't be serious
Why did i here this in Rick James’ voice? 😂
He is a person yes
Tucker is not God-fearing - he describes himself as nominal episcopal. Please don't create idols out of people.
Thank you Tucker Carlson for being a real man!!!
That’s your idea of a real man. Awesome standards.
@@Maintainingabadtrip better than men who breast feed 😂
@@noname-xo5mp Awesome standards
Because they show you how stupid this country is. They let a woman with three kids out in the danger area? I blame the husband as well.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Even Germany back then didn't let women go to war
100%
well you have 3 options, Take real action to change the country, Leave the country and be an Ex pat, or keep complaining online, If I had to guess your gonna pick option 3 cause it require the least amount of effort on your part.
Orders are orders mentality
God bless you Tucker 🙏🏻
I absolutely have loved watching the intellectual growth and moral centering of Tucker over the decades.
Thank you Tucker
For being real, honest and based. Loved the interview 🥀
That general’s comments about the mother dying was outrageous!
im sure youve said worse without even realizing it.
Always eye opening !! Thank you Tucker!
Love your points on warfare. 11+ years Active Duty special operations and 10+ years as a PMSC in OIF/OEF. At the end of the day, the only principle I could hold onto was keeping good people safe to make sure they returned to their families the way I met them; alive and intact (physically).
All that for nothing, ever think in that 20 years that maybe being a part of it is bad too? What makes you any better than the generals that you follow?
@@dasse8717 He is at least risking his life, unlike the officers and politicians.
@@dasse8717you’re just as spineless as the politicians that sent him
@@dasse8717what are you hoping to achieve by being negative? This guy is basically agreeing with you on your views of war, yet you’re so sensationalized and radicalized you can’t even see that, and instead foam at the mouth to ask questions that show how biased and uneducated you are.
I knew a girl from high school who joined as a medic. She was killed in Afghanistan trying to save a man from a car bomb. She was brave and may she rest in peace.
She was only 5’1.. she had ZERO business being at war.
Whats the point of freedom if you cant freely choose to go to war and accept that you might die at war? in the end sex makes no difference when the bodies are stacking up and the wolves are at your door cause your gonna want every able bodies hand holding a weapon and willingly to fight. A child shouldn't have any place in war yet in WW2 plenty of underage boys lied and fought cause they wanted to and some of them became legends for their deeds, Audie murphy is a perfect example of that.
"ZERO business being at war."
More business than you. Female soldiers have more risks and answer the call just the same.
Bush, Cheney, Clinton, and all those fiends killed her.
Jesus. Why do we do this, put women in combat roles? Would you trust a 5'1 woman to drag you out of a firefight with bullets flying? I wouldn't.
size has nothing to do with capability. she put her life on the line for your freedom and youre sitting in your smelly chair that you probably havent left in 12 hours talking about how a person who died for your safety had no business being there. im sure you didnt mean it in a bad way but cmon bro.
VERY beautiful ♥️🇿🇦 Thank you Tucker for defending woman.
You really are a keeper 🤗
I was in the military and every one of the enlisted guys had the same opinion. Women can serve in support roles like nursing or cooking but have no place in combat positions
Do you have any idea how many MOS’s there are? Women can do most.
@@Maintainingabadtrip There's a lot. Including nursing and cooking. My comment clearly says women can serve in combat support. Just not actual combat roles. All of us at ground level agree. There's a million reasons why but there's only a need for this one. They physically can't be competent warfighters and that's just the way it is and I don't care who's feelings that hurts
was the mother who died not in a support role though?
@anti-antifamclovin7627 I agree, I'm a Seabee and on deployment I constantly had to do things for the women who were with us because they weren't strong enough. Women have their own skills that are useful just not contingency construction.
Iraq used to be like Abu Dabi before we invaded. Night clubs open 24/7, parties and foreigners coming in to party.
Abu Adbi had torture chambers?
@@dontbugme7362 Do you have Guantanamo Bay detention camp?
In what way you better?
@@monaliza3334 what are you talking about?
@dontbugme7362 i believe the insinuation was/is that, since we (as Americans that is) [still] maintain & operate Gitmo...aka the US Department of Defense installation Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and (both generally speaking, as well as specifically referencing/inferring, I'm assuming), and then once you take their comment about the U.S.'s [complicity, involvement, support, perpetuation, etc., of] "torture" in that context, well then... we're basically just hypocrites; no different, and not really any better, even as the self-righteous conquerors (that we are) than the (allegedly "evil" & "wrong" people who, by the time we're finally done, become the) vanquished. Essentially, increasingly more often these days, and over the last several decades, & pretty much ever since our victory following the end of WWII, we, not just as Americans... but also along with our allies, [most of] western & central Europe, as well as a few other nations from across the globe, which together basically form & shape "the West" (e.g. [the global perspective of] Western Civilization) have been, for nearly almost a century at this point, and (more importantly) STILL currently ARE..until/unless there's profound change, will continue to remain/be viewed/treated the same, moving ahead into future times... very much conflated, similarly compared, placed into the same camp(s), perceived, treated, etc. as pretty much one & the same damn thing as the very adversaries & enemies.... which, by the way, -FAR more often than naught- whenever we as a nation & global SUPERpower, decide to step up, "defend" ourselves (and/or our friends/partners/allies) or "protecting all of humanity" or to fight for/bring "freedom, liberty & justice," and/or "bring or deliver democracy" to someplace else, what that nowadays, all to often REALLY truly means, unfortunately: target, villify, corrupt, compromise, leverage, manipulate, undermine, subvert, destabilize, indebt, attack, invade, subdue, destroy, control, etcetera any & all nations which suffer the misfortunes of & are unlucky enough to wind up falling right smack dab into/within our [iron] sights... "and, the rest," as 'they' say, "is history..."
Btw: this is all coming from a guy (me) who genuinely, deeply, passionately, in fact, absolutely LOVES, respects, appreciates, truly cares about, supports, protects & defends his country...THIS country.. OUR country.. the hands-down very best country, that ever was, IS or likely ever will be... that is (per Ben Franklin's now famous quote, regarding the founding & holding onto our [Constitutional] Republic), "if we can keep it..."
I believe we can, but just because that's how I think/feel ain't enough. it's gonna take actual, real, HARD work, and at the rate we're going, in the direction we're already headed, I dare say that it may also very well necessitate some incredibly long, difficult, savage & brutal fighting. Fighting who, you ask? Of that, I'm still not entirely sure yet...
@@dontbugme7362 right... Lol. I triggered a few people, huh?
I learn more from Tucker Carlson 10 min yt video than 1 year of msm. ❤🇺🇸👍🏼
Back years ago they didn’t want women in wars because it would be hard to see her blown apart and now it’s different
Me : writes anything in the comment section
CZcams : haha nice try ,we'll be deleting this one too ..
It’s the man’s responsibility to protect women and its women’s responsibility to listen to their fathers, husbands and brothers as they’re responsible for them.
I spent from 76 to 97 "defending our country as a Marine, the past twenty five years has been a real eye opener for many of us. "War, what is it good for, absolutely nothing, say it again!" Good God, ya'all!
I hate to break it to you but you didn't defend your country from anything
@@Hiberno_sperg No shit?
@@user-iy6de7qi1r name one enemy foreign or domestic enemy that you defended your country against? Looking at you service time line you missed Vietnam? Grenada? Panama? Iraq 1? You are blowing smoke up the collective arse of America if you think that is defending your country.
@@Hiberno_spergthat's literally what he just said. Are you thick?
@@user-iy6de7qi1r i mean he is right, I respect your service record but you weren't drafted and forced to do your service and any combat you saw or could've seen was all the works of elites trying to manipulate things for their own goals. America hasn't been in a war worth fighting since WW2. Everything after that we could've never been involved in.
I remember that and prayed for Trucker 🙏🏻
God bless you, Tucker!
Thank you Tucker! I agree; Women should be appreciated and taken care of more, and not sent to the battlefield to risk their lives more. May God continue to bless and keep you!
Go Tucker!
LOVE YOU TUCKY...😂❤
Iraq was not about colonialism, it was about keeping Sadam from getting rid of the fiat dollar for oil sales...
That's what American colonialism is about. Dollar globalism
And potentially ancient relics mentioned in the Bible
@@ZLwh1ne we may never know what was lost...
Blessings Tucker, from this old man in northeast Tennessee. Thanks for sharing this Iraq adventure, a side of you that I was unaware of.
It's still embarrassing that we all bought into the WMDs bullshit when it was just a smke screen for oil.
I didn't. I knew they probably didn't have Weapons of mass destruction.
Netanyahu pushed the WMD lie in front of our congress & promised the Iraq invasion would promote stability
No, we were too stupid to take the oil. It was to satisfy the warmongers who thought we stopped short in the first gulf war. All the lives and dollars spent on Afghanistan, and we essentially gave the mineral rights to China. Tucker stated it perfectly, we suck at colonialism.
@@sapinvaIt's a proven fact that it was about oil. Bush invaded to shut down Iraq's oil production to manipulate the world market and producers. Had nothing to do with the US taking over the oil.
actually, if you look at all the offensives we have fought against other countries it's just about feeding the military industrial complex. that's what's going on right now with Ukraine. we aren't there to correct morals or do anything but create money and give it back to the politicians.
phk yes. do'nt send women to war. Revere them, protect them, die for them.......but don't put them in harms way. Thank you Tucker
I disagree...I think its the ultimate equalizer. Equality is what they want. Why don't you listen to women judge?
I disagree, too. They want "equality" so I say give it to them.
And default to their husband’s authority as he is responsible for them.
@@21cranberries21I get the argument but men and women aren’t equal.
@alexgreen6678 you're not listening to women bro...90% of women are on the left. They've been telling you for 100 yrs that men and women are equal. Give them their equality friendo...who are you to get in the middle of their progress....I say march to the frontlines, and those are not menstruating can occupy the foxhole....
As a female Hospital Corpsman in the Navy in my younger years, I'd like to know why both parents were deployed to a war zone at the same time. Surely one of them should have stayed stateside??
It used to not be allowed for a married couple to be deployed together on the same base/FOB, so I found that part of the story odd.
@@RubyW7944 Ya, I'm throwing the BS flag on that one.
@@mopesrus7266 Look it up and get back to me.
I'm sure it never happened and I can definitely see some asshat General telling a story like that to a journalist for clout without any clue how horrific the story truly sounds then getting butt hurt at the negative response
Makes one wonder about the story.
Back then both the Republicans and Democrats played us. Now we know thier games. It's still a long road to voting out all the warmongers.
These two should start a show together....very good chemistry.
Completely agree on how sending women into battles is disgusting!
20 years ago when I would see Wounded Warrior commercials on Fox News showing women with missing limbs, it would hit me in a different and unsettling way than seeing the men with missing limbs. It’s just not right. It’s twisted to send women off into harms way or encourage them to do so with the lie that they are the same as men. They are better than men and should not be subjected to that. They are the cultivators of the civilization that men are to defend. It’s not hating women at all, it’s appreciating them for who God made them. Anybody that does not see that has lost something valuable. Sadly many of my peers don’t see this and have been programmed to default to “men and women are the same”
its not about them being the same its about FREEDOM. If someone woman or man wants to fight for their country theirs no logical reason not to, The military makes up less than 1% of the population and females in service only make up about 17% so its truly not a big deal. If they want to go fight and meet the requirements and are capable of doing the job then why strip away their right to do so?
A whole new respect!
" hunnie i dealt with the last one, can you deal with that" 😂☠️😂☠️😂☠️😂☠️😂
Great video segment ❤❤
God bless you and love you Tucker in His Divine volition! Amen! Fiat!!!!
Damn! Thanks for sharing this Tucker.
He ain't lying'
I served in the military long enough to retire and saw advancements in my time that may not have been possible in any other venue, but my entrance into the military was during the time of the Vietnam war, though never sent there, I enjoyed the many opportunities that were afforded me as a member of the military and was "gung ho". I got to serve in Germany and South Korea twice and was firmly ensconced into the believe that the military was the "righteous" arm of our country. After retiring my experiences and memories were of those I had served with and was horrified by 9/11. When our country decided to invade Afghanistan and then Iraqi I was in full support. Then 2016 happened and slowly afterward became aware that my support for my government in conducting this conflict was not in the best interest of our country. I cannot count the number of times I supported the governments incursion into these areas and was very vehement about it. After 2016 it became apparent there was something wrong with these pictures and it dawned on me the American people were played and manipulated in supporting these conflicts solely for the enjoyment of those defense contractors and those in government were there to justify its continuance. All the lives lost, not only in Afghanistan and Iraqi but as well Vietnam and even more eye opening has been the conflict that was created with Ukraine and Russia just for the defense contractors. My allegiance is to my country and the people of the United States, not to those who sacrifice on the altar of convenience the lives of our young men and women only for the sake of those in the defense industry. Our borders are being invaded and nothing is being done about it, but we can sacrifice the youth of our nation in a made up conflict. My distrust and disgust with my government makes me sick in my soul and not only my stomach.
Thank you for your service, I’m 65 and just now figuring this out myself. I still love and am proud my country🇺🇸, I was not in the service but I was a first responder for 25 years.
Here before Pingtrip get's his hands on this.
That dude is an editing god
I’ve never heard Tucker talk about this. Thank you and God bless!
I love what a good soul Tucker is. My introduction to Tucker was on Fox which I didn't like at all, but ever-since he went independent you get to see the real Tucker and I love that guy. Even the interaction with strangers who try to "Catch" him in his private life, he always responds with respect. He is a much better guy than I am.
I remember them saying Osama and Saddam had a meeting "so there must be terrorist cells in Iraq". YEARS later it come out that in the meeting Osama asked if he could have training camps there and Saddam said no way. But I mean think about it. WHY THE HELL would a dictator want another heavily armed group with heaps of guns THAT HE DOESN'T CONTROL HIMSELF in his country. I mean that's the ONE chance of being overthrown internally and he doesn't need them so why risk it?

Thank you, Tucker.
Thank you Tucker
Dave Smith is a national treasure.
I am a Gulf War one Veteran and became anti war after being a VFW Post Commander and seeing the consequences of war on the familys. They go through the war long after it's end and suffer it as the Soldier.
Kudos to Carlson senior. More kudos to Tucker venting off on the General. No doubt that exchange got back to Fox. It was just a matter of time. One of the best clips of any of the serious folk i follow.
I'm here for this amazing duo
Amen!!!🙏
wow tucker, just wow
“I took leave” translates into Employer wouldn’t approve
"The obvious is real" is clouded by what we WANT reality to be.
Thanks Tucker
K00l TV 📺 OMG. That's horrible. Tucker you are heroic and stoic. I love you. Xoxo ❤❤❤💲💲🍺🍺🇬🇧🇬🇧🤠🤠🤠
This was so sad Tucker , about the mother & I think their purpose should only be caring for their children & husband as God intended! I tried to share the video but they wouldn't allow it! I'm so tired of censoring! TY4 you're braveness to try to spread the truth of what's really going on! God bless u & all yr family & keep u safe always!!☦️🙏🏻
Who wouldnt allow you to share the video ?
Imagine almost getting fired for carrying a gun in an active combat zone.
Right on Carlson....
Dude I'm watching King of Queens the other day and in the last season towards the finale Tucker Carlson randomly pops in on a cameo appearance talking with Doug about their new apartment in Manhattan lol. It was so unexpected I never realized he was in that show.
Tucker your awesome dude coming from a 29 year old Chicano
I feel as Tucker does it was evil mothers should never be in the service
The only info I’ve ever retained from a generals mouth was
“You’re replaceable. Another selfless service American will take your place in this fight. Nobody held a gun to your head. You volunteered”
He was trying to give us a braveheart level motivational speech
Ban.
The most epic thumbnail ever 😂

"I was for it." Thank you for admitting that Tucker, you're forgiven. And loved! ❤
Because USA was never a "Colonial Power", we suck at Nation building. Saddam and the true colonial powers were ruthless at maintaining control That is how it is done.
But there was also 2 major failures that occurred in Iraq. # 1 Brenner (I think that was his name), disbanded the Iraqi military and that left an unprecedented power vacuum. Iraq was full of weapons and ex-soldiers who knew how to use them. (Unlike MacArthur who kept the Japanese military in service to ensure nation could function. Patton did the same in his zone in Europe.)
#2 Iran is bordered by Iraq in the West and Afghanistan in the East. They knew they would be next after Iraq was subdued. To prevent that from happening Iran insured all of the Shia militias were well armed and supplied with terrorists and fighters. The "Insurgency" was stoked by Iran our mistakes.
(To keep the costs down, the number of troops sent was kept low. That allowed massive amounts of unguarded munitions and weapons to disappear from unguarded stockpiles.)
He is exactly right about the officer corps of our military. It started in Vietnam and has just gotten 1000% worse.
He also held an AK in Nicaragua.
Just found out it’s Tucker in the picture in the thumbnail, I am amazed.
I'm a Mexican born, but I live in America. I love this guy. Just because we think a like.. America comes first to me!!
Ps.im from TX.. that comes first😅 😅
Sad for our country and for the world. Jesus, please help us, Amen. ✝️💧🩸👑💜✝️
I love how people refer to our liberation of persia as an "invasion". 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I thought it was all a setup then and now ...
But a setup for what exactly because our government is so screwed.
_People can endure a lot. Awful repression, dictators, etc., but not chaos. People cannot deal with chaos. And what we brought to Iraq was pure chaos._
- Tucker Carlson
(profound)
The Civilized Nation realize the ugliness of violence and war. It understands the grim reality of its destruction that it insists on keeping half of humanity spared from the destruction.
Preach Tucker Preach ❤️✝️🇺🇸
Tucker is an AK operator. Can't wait for Brandon Herrera and Tucker to sit down for a conversation.
CARLSON A REAL PATRIOT 👍🏼
Tucker with an AK is my sleep paralysis demon, I’m just picturing him at the foot of my bed… holding the AK wrong, which makes it even scarier.
“If something obvious is happening…. It’s happening!” Tucker Carlson
Thats when I joined the Marines. 2002-2006. Iraq 2005. When i hit the fleet they told us it was over and we'd never get our chance. Lol we got our chance
I think they're talking about Staff Sgt. Kimberley Voelz. She wasn't a mother though.
Brian Williams, eat your heart out.
❣️❣️
Tucker Huge Fan! Better Know Generals Name! Retired Enlisted say it or Dont!
If you haven't listened to the whole thing this clip is taken from then I highly recommend it.
Talk about how our Navy was the smallest Navy since WW2 in the Obama era and how they looked for any reason to discharge someone.
5:10 Total BS!! While I typically agree with most of Tucker's views, THAT woman made the decision to serve. And this country allowed HER to make that decision. Any loss of life is saddening, but in the USA women have the ability and right to serve.
War is a man’s game.
She probably joined up during peacetime for college money with the promise that she wouldn't be in danger then the government re-classed her, ploped her down in a war zone, in a vehicle without armor and she lost her life while male flag officers are busy working on their future career at Raytheon
While I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree with your sentiment about women in combat, it is because we cannot keep them from going to war due to their "right" to do so.
Did Tucker jusy reveal that he fought a skirmish in Iraq?
Ukraine is sending woman
Webster Tarpley was a great analytical mind and I learned from him that just as important as opportunity is to an event, so too is ability to actually carry out an event. So you can have somebody like the US Sabre rattling and kicking out proposals that take us direct to nuclear war based upon ideology or desire that ill intent is in fact inertia. Tucker's last statement about all thinking something and the spontaneous combustion that follows is real. We are daily moving the pieces as quietly as possible to a European war that will not turn into Ukraine 2.0
But these pieces moving, NATO exercises and inflammatory statements have caused the PRC and Russian Federation to remind us they have no problem doing the unthinkable while we are busy deciding how to save Ukraine's borders when we can't even save our own...
1:02
From what i hear, there was a small U.S. unit that was going to go into iraq in early 2001 and take Sadam out. That operation was stopped because of a fellow nato country objecting to what they were going to do.
