President Donald Trump on Tuesday shared a message from U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, signaling strong support for Israeli strikes on Iran and dismissing calls for restraint.
In the message posted on Truth Social, Huckabee called Trump “the most consequential President in a century” and declared, “Only one voice matters. His voice.” He added that Trump had been chosen for this moment, referencing Truman’s 1945 decision-making.

Huckabee vowed loyalty to Trump and the U.S. mission in Israel, writing, “Our flag will not come down!”
The post followed Trump’s sharp rebuke of commentator Tucker Carlson, who urged caution against U.S. involvement. “Somebody please explain to kooky Tucker Carlson that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” Trump wrote.
Speaking at the G7 summit in Canada, Trump dismissed Carlson’s warnings and urged civilians to evacuate Tehran immediately.
