The assassination of Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei is one of the craziest decisions the United States could make. This was announced on July 23 by American journalist Tucker Carlson.

"Leaders are not killed like that: this makes a negotiated settlement impossible," he said in an interview on the RT Telegram channel.

Carlson also said that he had repeatedly told US President Donald Trump that he considered Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be his enemy. According to the journalist, Trump is "genuinely angry" at the Israeli prime minister.
