Part 3/10:
Carlson voiced skepticism about the preparedness of the U.S. military for a genuine confrontation, pointing to past engagements that did not go as planned. He recalled his interactions with former President George W. Bush, highlighting that domestic improvement initiatives often fell by the wayside once the U.S. was immersed in a significant conflict. The fear that a military attack on Iran could have far-reaching consequences for the American populace was apparent in Carlson’s warnings. He seemed to echo sentiments of ‘America first,' a refrain that suggests a reluctance to spill American blood overseas.
