Most Americans just want to live in a sovereign country that cares about them. That’s not a partisan position. It’s a baseline demand. Cenk Uygur explains.
“The U.S. government should put America first, and sending the Israeli military billions of tax dollars each year does not fit the bill. We should stop giving them our money.”
Imagine how establishment Washington would react if you made that statement on cable news. They’d smear you as a bigot and demand your removal from decent society. It would be cancel culture at its finest.
The truth, of course, is that there’s nothing hateful about opposing the U.S.-Israel alliance. The Israeli government does not represent all Jews, just like how Joe Biden does not represent all Catholics. The idea that disliking Israel equates to Jew hate is a carefully crafted farce. It’s time to tear it down.
Cenk Uygur has faced nonsensical antisemitism allegations for years. He speaks out against Washington funding Benjamin Netanyahu’s war crimes, and Israel First hates him for it. But he doesn’t care. Cenk joined The Tucker Carlson Show to expose the lies behind America’s “special alliance” with Israel, Israel’s war on the First Amendment, the dangers of identity politics, and more.
