Another delirious statement by Tucker Carlson: "Why did Britain enter the World War?"

Far-right host Tucker Carlson questioned in an interview why Britain entered World War II, claiming that Hitler was right about German territories ceded to Poland. According to him, Britain had no stake in the matter, and the war destroyed the British Empire. The remarks sparked a heated discussion with former British MP Jacob Rees-Mogg.

The controversial far-right host Tucker Carlson continues his series of increasingly extreme statements. In an interview published over the weekend with former British MP Jacob Rees-Mogg, Carlson questioned whether there was justification for fighting Nazi Germany in World War II. According to him, Hitler invaded Poland over a legitimate territorial dispute, and "Britain had nothing to do with it." Carlson claimed that 15% of Poland was once part of Germany and was ceded under the Treaty of Versailles, and that Hitler's claim was correct. He added that the war destroyed the British Empire and asked "who cares" if the British spoke German. Rees-Mogg tried to explain the defense alliance with Poland and the campaign against evil, but Carlson insisted that Britain destroyed itself in the war. The interview initially focused on Rees-Mogg's support for sending aid to Ukraine.
