Netanyahu Criticizes Tucker Carlson in Conversation Ahead of D’Souza’s Documentary

  

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu leveled harsh criticism at American conservative commentator Tucker Carlson during a recorded conversation with filmmaker and political analyst Dinesh D’Souza. The conversation was released this week as part of the promotional material for D’Souza’s upcoming documentary, titled The Dragon’s Prophecy.

Although the full details of the conversation will be released alongside the documentary’s release, sources familiar with the matter indicate that Netanyahu questioned Carlson’s stance and comments on Israel and international politics, describing them as uninformed or distorted. The interaction highlights a clash between the American media narrative and the Israeli leadership’s perspective on security, diplomacy, and international relations.

D'Souza, known for his politically charged documentaries and provocative style, has anticipated that The Dragon's Prophecy will address "strategic and controversial issues of global geopolitics," placing media and political figures at the center of debates that often generate significant public attention.

The episode also highlights the growing influence of US media on the international perception of Israel and how foreign leaders interact with media figures to defend or qualify their political positions. Analysts agree that the release of these statements could rekindle attention on the relationship between conservative media and US foreign policy, especially in the context of the Middle East.
