Shortly after Tucker Carlson’s interview with Mike Huckabee in Ben Gurion AirPort, Israeli officials confiscated his passport and hauled off his executive producer to an interrogation room.
Tucker: “Men who identified themselves as airport security took our passports, hauled our executive producer into a side room and then demanded to know what we spoke to Ambassador Huckabee about. It was bizarre. We’re now out of the country.”
Two sources familiar with the matter said the Israeli government initially did not want to allow Carlson into the country, prompting a delicate negotiation involving the State Department.
They evenutally decided to not bar Carlson from entering the country to avoid a ‘diplomatic incident,’ according to a Channel 13 report.
