Recently, Fox has spoken out again the United States military attacks in Syria and Afghanistan. He claimed that he has “studied the MOAB for years” and that “it’s a disgusting device, designed to inflict maximum casualties. It’s a carpet bomb. Should be illegal.”

Almost immediately, Fox’s tweets encouraging “love” were ridiculed on networks where the pundits had a tough time believing his theories would see results.

Trish Regan, host of “The Intelligence Report” on Fox, observed, “It must be nice to live in that kind of world, where you’re just so divorced from the reality of what’s actually happening out there.”
