Kirk Killing: Tucker Carlson Funeral Speech Stuns Israelis & Jewish Americans
At Charlie Kirk’s memorial in Glendale, Arizona, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson sparked controversy by comparing Kirk’s assassination to the death of Jesus, claiming that those in power “go bonkers” when confronted with truth-tellers. Carlson’s mention of Hamas and a “lamp-lit room” was widely interpreted as referencing modern Israel, prompting criticism from Jewish groups and Israeli media for repeating medieval blood libel tropes. Despite the backlash, online users amplified Carlson’s claims, posting conspiracy theories linking Mossad to both JFK and Kirk’s deaths, and targeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In response, Netanyahu posted a video to X, firmly denying any Israeli involvement.
