Hunter Biden, son of former US President Joe Biden, has called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “evil incarnate” during an interview with prominent conservative commentator Tucker Carlson. He also said criticizing the Israeli government does not equate to antisemitism.
The remarks sparked a strong backlash online, with many users reminding Hunter Biden that his father’s administration continued supplying weapons to Tel Aviv, enabling Israel to continue its war on Gaza.
Much of the interview focused on controversies surrounding Hunter Biden himself — his past struggles with drug addiction and the laptop scandal that became a political weapon against the Biden family — before shifting to Israel. Carlson claimed that when the laptop controversy broke, Israeli-linked individuals had approached him with claims that the device contained material depicting abuse of minors.
Analysts note that the interview highlights how criticism of Israel and Netanyahu has moved beyond the Democratic Party’s progressive wing, gaining traction within the populist “America First” movement on the right as well — a movement of which Carlson is a leading voice.
