Whatever Carlson’s real views on war and empire, the genesis of Carlson’s “anti-war” bona fides does not appear to be based in anything close to liberal or left principles. In a number of clips released Monday, Carlson disparaged the Iraqi people to Bubba the Love Sponge and his co-hosts and implied that most—if not all—of the blame for postwar chaos in the country was due to their culture.
“You know, I’m not defending the war in any way, but I just have zero sympathy for them or their culture,” Carlson said of Iraqis on May 30, 2006. “A culture where people just don’t use toilet paper or forks.”
“They can just shut the fuck up and obey, is my view,” Carlson continued. “And, you know, the second we leave, they’re going to be calling for us to return because they can’t govern themselves.”
On March 11, 2008, Carlson said that Iraq could be salvaged “if, somehow, the Iraqis decided to behave like human beings or something.”
Carlson’s view on the war was perhaps most clearly expressed, however, shortly before Barack Obama’s election as president. On October 7, 2008, Carlson told Bubba and company that invading Iraq was a mistake because of the kind of people the Iraqis were—if indeed they were people at all.
“Iraq is a crappy place filled with a bunch of, you know, semiliterate primitive monkeys,” Carlson said, “that’s why it wasn’t worth invading.”
