Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who used an appearance before the Heritage Foundation last month to attack Tucker Carlson over the former Fox News host’s anti-Israel rhetoric, blasted him again Thursday after the head of the conservative think tank refused to disavow the right-wing firebrand.

Cruz didn’t mention Carlson by name as he kicked off the Republican Jewish Coalition’s annual legislative conference in Las Vegas with a call to action to stop the spread of anti-Israel talk among young Christians.

But he left no doubt to whom he was referring and bemoaned what he said is the impact of such rhetoric.

“We are seeing young Christians and young evangelicals turning against Israel,” Cruz said in a speech that drew several rounds of applause and ended with a standing ovation.
