Steve Bannon slams Fox News host as 'Tel Aviv Levin' for calling him a 'contemptible POS' in wild rant

WASHINGTON, DC: Amid escalating tensions among MAGA loyalists, Steve Bannon ripped into “Tel Aviv” Mark Levin after the pro-Israel war hawk unleashed a barrage of wild attacks on the political strategist.

Earlier this week, the 67-year-old Fox News host called Bannon “a contemptible POS” after he slammed the conservative pundit for supporting US involvement in the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran.

The outburst is the most recent round in the MAGA civil war that has broken out in recent weeks, with Trump deciding to attack three of Iran's key nuclear facilities.

Steve Bannon hits back at Mark Levin in wild rant

On his Real America’s Voice show ‘War Room’, Steve Bannon brutally hit back at Mark Levin’s criticism, saying, “Boy, Tel Aviv Levin. Tel Avin Levin is very – he’s big mad. He’s big mad.”

“Big mad because he didn’t act as a spokesperson as a spokesmodel for a foreign nation, they didn’t get what they wanted,” he added, according to Mediaite.

“Now, why are like Tel Aviv Levin and all of these guys, why are they so apoplectic?” he questioned before adding, “They’re all a joke and of course at Fox, they’re a mouthpiece and a propaganda arm for a foreign government, and you have to weigh and measure this.”

Bannon went on to slam Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for rejecting President Donald Trump and attacking Iran after agreeing to a ceasefire, saying, "You saw why Bibi can't be trusted, Netanyahu can't be trusted."

“They never call out Netanyahu, who got Israel into this,” Bannon claimed of Levin and other staunch Netanyahu supporters, like Sen Lindsey Graham (R-SC), before branding Netanyahu "a bald-faced liar."

“The Netanyahu government is out of control. What happened last night, and I have preached this from the beginning, they’re not trustworthy. The Netanyahu crowd is not trustworthy. They’re not worthy of our trust. They’re not worthy of our trust and last night showed it in living color," he warned.

The war between Steve Bannon and Mark Levin

The back and forth between Steve Bannon and Mark Levin first started last week when the former White House chief strategist said the conservative pundit is part of a group of “hyenas” and “jackals” who “feed off death and destruction.”

Levin has advocated for the United States to take a more active role in the war against Iran since Israel launched its initial attack on the country earlier this month.

“What Levin and these guys did in Ukraine and Fox did in Ukraine, you see them cheerleading Ukraine now? Where is it? Where there’s a million people dead and wounded,” Bannon said during an episode of the 'Bannon’s War Room' podcast, according to NJ.com.

In his initial response to Bannon's attack, Levin, anchor of Fox News' 'Life, Liberty & Levin', called him a "disgusting fraud."

“Nobody gives a s**t about what you, Bannon, a confessed and convicted fraudster has to say,” Levin wrote.

“You’re a liar. You cheated how many people? At bottom, you’re a certified disgusting fraud. And it shows every time you open your big mouth,” he added.

Levin then chastised Bannon for continuing to declare his opposition to the US joining a battle in the Middle East, stating that he "opposed our great military and commander in chief at a time when they acted to destroy Iran’s nuke."

"80% of Americans backed the operation. You and your tiny cabal of lunatics gave aide and comfort to the enemy. Now you prance around like you support our country rather than apologize for your outrageous disloyalty," the 67-year-old remarked. 

He claimed Bannon "stabbed the president in the back in the middle of battle despite the fact he pardoned your sorry a** for God knows what," before adding, "You’re a contemptible POS."

"You always will be a certified, convicted, confessed fraud who ripped off patriotic Americans," Levin concluded.
