Victor Davis Hanson: Confronting Conservative Antisemitism

Video Description

Tucker Carlson’s interview with controversial right-wing podcaster Nick Fuentes has snowballed into a bigger conversation that has everyone asking: Does the Right have a serious issue with antisemitism? Victor Davis Hanson explains how conservative icons like William F. Buckley once handled extremists, contrasts that with today’s platforms, and explores why some on the Right are now flirting with the same rhetoric on Israel that echoes leftwing sentiments. How should the conservative movement handle this divide? Hanson breaks it down on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “I think the reason for the rise of antisemitism is an element, the isolationist base of the MAGA movement, felt that it was the driving force and that it was going to be isolationist and we were not going to get involved in the Middle East. And they were very suspicious of so-called, what they call neocons and what they call Christian Zionists. As Tucker said, he hates Christian Zionists over any other people. Even bin Laden? Al-Qaeda? ISIS? I don't know. But they were losing influence. Donald Trump proved that he is not a neoisolation. He's a Jacksonian. Targeted strikes to preserve and enhance U.S. deterrents.” (0:00) Introduction(0:59) The Tucker Carlson-Nick Fuentes Interview(1:32) The Rise of Right-Wing Antisemitism(7:44) Left-Wing vs. Right-Wing Antisemitism(9:17) The MAGA Movement and Isolationism(11:09) The Importance of the U.S.-Israel Alliance(14:14) Conclusion 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest short videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.
