| | + | In an Oct/2026 interview with former British politician Jacob Rees-Mogg, the "j7st askibg questions" bigoted propagandist [[Tucker Carlson]] questioned why Britain entered [[World War II]], arguing that Hitler had no fundamental quarrel with Britain. |
| | + | |
| | + | Carlson also characterized Germany’s territorial claims involving Poland as legitimate, essentially arguing that Germany had been stripped of territories populated by Germans. |
| | + | |
| | + | Klich, Poland’s chargé d’affaires in Washington, strongly condemned these comments, saying they distort the documented historical record and amount to an insult to millions of Nazi victims, including American servicemen. |
| | + | |
| | + | Klich accused Carlson of becoming an “apologist for Adolf Hitler” and demanded that he publicly retract his statements and apologize.<ref>[https://tvpworld.com/95769457/polish-diplomat-klich-accuses-tucker-carlson-of-insulting-victims-of-nazism ‘Disgraceful’: Polish diplomat demands Tucker Carlson retract ‘lies’ about WWII].

| | + | The diplomat reminded that Nazi Germany’s invasion of Poland was deliberately planned and aimed at destroying the Polish state and its population—not simply reclaiming territory. |
| | + | |
| | + | It was also noted Carlson’s broader history of skepticism toward the Allied war effort. |
| | + | |
| | + | Rees-Mogg himself pushed back against Carlson during the interview, saying Carlson appeared to be “verging on defending Hitler.”<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/10/03/rees-mogg-tucker-carlson-verging-on-defending-hitler/ Rees-Mogg: Tucker Carlson ‘verging on defending Hitler’]. |
