Jon Stewart Pushes Pro-War Lies! Trump Says Tucker Is Not “America First! w/ Owen Shroyer

The host, citing 'Professor Hang,' explains that the US stock market is heavily reliant on investments from Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar). If the Iran war leads to reduced oil income, inability to export oil via the Strait of Hormuz, and increased defense spending, these GCC states will cease investing in the US. This withdrawal of hundreds of billions of dollars, particularly from major tech companies, would cause the US stock market and economy to collapse.

Professor Hang's analysis on GCC investments in US financial markets exploding since 2012, and news reports indicating Gulf states are reviewing overseas investments due to financial strains from the Iran war.

Jon Stewart is criticized for using 'hacky' Islamophobic jokes and misrepresenting Iran's actions. Specifically, Stewart framed Iran's retaliatory strikes on US military bases (used to attack Iran) as Iran 'just attacking everybody' due to being 'crazy.' The host argues Stewart knows the truth but deliberately pushes an emotional, pro-war narrative, possibly influenced by his company's ownership by a 'Zionist machine' and his brother's high-level position at the New York Stock Exchange.

Stewart's jokes about Iranian virgins and comments on Iran 'mowing down its own people' and 'slapping everyone else' during a 'two-on-one beatdown.' The host points out Stewart's company is owned by Larry Ellison and his brother, Larry Leowitz, was COO of NYSE Euronext.

Rachel Maddow is accused of deliberately misinforming her audience by blaming Trump and Gulf States (UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia) for the Iran war, while almost entirely omitting Israel's role. The host argues that Israel publicly called for US-led regime change in Iran and directly participated in bombing campaigns, and that Maddow's narrative serves to protect Israel and the Democratic party's ties to it.

Maddow's 'Follow the Money' segment, where she mentioned Israel only twice in passing, immediately shifting blame to Gulf Arab states and their financial ties to Trump. The host cites a Marine screaming 'Nobody wants to die for Israel' at a Senate hearing and Marco Rubio admitting Israel attacked first.

Candace Owens argues that the US desire for regime change in Iran stems directly from demands by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders, not from any imminent threat to the United States. She contends that Zionism has brought 'nothing but grief' to America and that US foreign policy is dictated by Israel, leading to perpetual wars in the Middle East.

Owens's statement that 'Netanyahu is demanding it' and that 'Israel is dictating our foreign policy.' She also mentions Trump's alleged receipt of $100 million from Miriam Adelson, who 'wanted to annex the West Bank.'

Tucker Carlson asserts that the US government's focus on Iran is not connected to American national security, noting a lack of Shiite terror attacks in the US. He argues that this focus is on behalf of a 'foreign power' and distracts from pressing domestic issues such as illegal immigration, a collapsing economy, and the drug crisis, which he views as the true threats to the US.

Carlson's statement: 'How many Shiite terror attacks have there been in the United States in my lifetime? Let me do the math. Zero. So don't tell me that the greatest threat we face is Iran. That's a lie. You're telling it on behalf of a foreign power.' He lists domestic problems as primary threats.
