Watchdog groups criticized Carlson for amplifying Isaac’s inflammatory rhetoric without challenge, particularly amid rising [[antisemitic]] attacks globally.
Watchdog groups criticized Carlson for amplifying Isaac’s inflammatory rhetoric without challenge, particularly amid rising [[antisemitic]] attacks globally.
In 2025, Carlson interviewed a former Church of the Nativity spokesperson involved in the [[2002 siege of Bethlehem]], during which armed Arab Palestinian militants occupied the church under Arafat. The guest, presented by Carlson as a “Christian peace advocate,” had previously propagated false narratives that Israeli forces had attacked the church — a claim repeatedly disproven by journalists and Vatican sources at the time. Carlson made no mention of the armed standoff or the militants’ use of the church as a human shield, omitting critical context.
In 2025, Carlson interviewed a former defender of [[Islamism|Islamic]] terror during which armed Arab Palestinian militants occupied the church under Arafat. The guest, [[George Stephanopoulos]]' sister, a known falsifier, presented by Carlson as a “Christian peace [sic] advocate,” had previously propagated false narratives that Israeli forces had attacked the church — a claim repeatedly disproven by journalists and Vatican sources at the time. Carlson made no mention of the armed standoff or the militants’ use of the church as a human shield, omitting critical context. He also refused to interview a real native, Arab Christian who asked to, fearing it will interrupt his propaganda.
Analysts pointed out that Carlson's choice to host these individuals aligned with his broader pattern of indulging fringe anti-Israel figures while avoiding voices from the mainstream Jewish community.
