US media commentator Tucker Carlson has sparked controversy after saying Israel “will be punished” for the killing of children linked to Hamas during the ongoing Gaza war. Speaking during a recent broadcast, Carlson criticised Israel’s military campaign and warned that actions taken during the conflict could lead to long-term consequences.

The remarks come amid continued fighting in Gaza following the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel, and as international scrutiny grows over civilian casualties. Israeli officials maintain that Hamas operates within civilian areas and bears responsibility for harm to civilians, while human rights groups continue to call for accountability and restraint.

00:00Because killing people who committed no crime is immoral.
00:04It will always be immoral.
00:06And people who do it will be punished for it.
00:08And nations that endorse it will be punished for it.
00:12That's a fact.
00:14And you are seeing now, you are seeing now a very intense effort to convince you otherwise.
00:22Oh, it's fine.
00:23They deserved it.
00:24Really, do their children deserve it?
00:26If a man commits a crime, do he kill his kids?
00:30I don't care if it's in Minneapolis or Gaza City.
00:33No, we don't.
00:35And if we do accidentally, we say, I am so sorry that we murdered someone who did nothing wrong.
00:39Because it is murder.
00:41And to see Christian pastors make excuses for that is one of the most...
00:46And that's not a partisan question.
00:49That is not a political question.
00:51That is the only question that matters.
00:53Do we have the right to murder people?
00:56And the resounding answer that Christianity provides us is no.
01:05I don't get into the whole debate, you know, dispensationalist.
01:08I don't even, I didn't even know the terms.
01:11Dispensationalist, you know, or whatever.

01:13I'm an Episcopalian, okay?
01:14I don't enter these debates.
01:15Or was.
01:16My theology is super simple.
01:20I like the Beatitudes.
01:21Read them yesterday.
01:22I actually think, was it Michael reading them, some of them here?
01:26I think any person, any honest person would say it's the essence of the Christian faith.
01:31And killing tens of thousands of children, and then making excuses for it on behalf of a foreign government, is not in there.
01:39It's antithetical to that.
01:40Sorry, it doesn't make me a hater, it makes me the opponent of hate.
01:48So now that I've alienated most of the crowd, with my staunch...
