"In March, Carlson mused that a strike on the Iranian nuclear sites will almost certainly result in thousands of American deaths at bases throughout the Middle East, and cost the United States tens of billions of dollars. A bombing campaign against Iran will set off a war, and it will be America's war. Don't let the propagandists lie to you, he added for good measure."
"The first week of a war with Iran could easily kill thousands of Americans. It could also collapse our economy, as surging oil prices trigger unmanageable inflation. Consider the effects of $30 gasoline, warned Carlson in June. But the second week of the war could be even worse. Iran isn't Iraq or Libya, or even North Korea. While it's often described as a rogue state, Iran has powerful allies."
Two major predictions of catastrophic U.S. casualties and economic collapse following an attack on Iran did not materialize after Iran's limited retaliatory strike on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, which caused zero casualties. Predictions warned that a bombing campaign would set off an American war, kill thousands, trigger surging oil and $30 gasoline, and potentially escalate into a world war involving BRICS allies. Iran maintains extensive military ties with Russia and sells most oil to China. President Donald Trump proceeded to strike Iran's nuclear program and derided the critic with the nickname 'kooky Tucker Carlson.'
