Norman Finkelstein calls Israel 'nation of child killers' in Tucker Carlson interview

American political scientist Norman Finkelstein described Israel as a “nation of child killers” in an interview with former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson that has gone viral online. During an almost two-hour appearance on The Tucker Carlson Show, published on Monday, Finkelstein, a prolific author and longtime critic of Israel, said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was the “perfect reflection of Israeli society". One clip circulating widely online focused on Finkelstein’s response to complaints that Jewish-Israeli students at Harvard University have felt isolated or unwelcome amid tensions over the war on Gaza, referencing the campus-wide student protests calling out Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
