Israel First Patriots Stand Strong in US and UK

Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, Richard Kemp, and Douglas Murray Champion Israel in Times of Crisis

Since the horrifying massacre of October 7, 2023, there has been a group of voices in the West that has left a lasting impression on me. I call them “patriots absolute,” and their unwavering support for Israel in the face of global condemnation and increasingly woke rhetoric is something to be celebrated. While there are countless individuals who have risen in Israel’s defense, today I want to focus on four individuals who have continuously shown courage, strength, and clarity – Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro from America, and Col. Richard Kemp and Douglas Murray from Britain. Their voices have been a beacon of reason in a world that sometimes seems increasingly mired in misguided rhetoric.

Mark Levin: Roaring When Others Whisper

Let us begin with Mark Levin, affectionately known as “The Great One” to his millions of listeners. As a constitutional scholar, former adviser to President Reagan’s cabinet, and now one of the most influential political commentators in America, Levin has never been afraid to speak truth to power. His radio show, The Mark Levin Show, has become a cornerstone for millions of listeners seeking clarity amidst the chaos of today’s political landscape.

What has impressed me most about Levin is his unapologetic stance on Israel. His recent comments on the UK’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer were a testament to his unyielding support for Israel, and his frustration with Western leaders who seem quick to lecture Israel on how to fight a war. As Levin said, “Israel is fighting a defensive war, and no one seems to care about that. They are being told to feed their enemies while simultaneously defeating them.” Levin’s critique of the hypocrisy surrounding Israel’s right to defend itself is not only powerful – it is also deeply necessary in a world where some seem to have lost sight of basic moral principles.

Levin’s defense of Israel is rooted in his understanding of the broader battle at play: a battle between the Marxists, Islamists, and the West. “The West is losing,” he warns. “And Israel is one of the last strongholds.” His words resonate deeply in a time when so many voices in the West are either silent or hesitant to take a firm stand on Israel’s right to exist and defend itself.

Ben Shapiro: Uncompromising in Truth

Next, we have Ben Shapiro, a name that has become synonymous with unwavering support for Israel. As a Jewish-American commentator, Shapiro’s defense of Israel is personal, intellectual, and unwavering. From his early days as the youngest nationally syndicated columnist in the United States to his current role as one of the most prominent conservative voices in America, Shapiro has used his platform to tell the truth about Israel, despite the waves of opposition he faces.

Shapiro’s commitment to Israel became even more evident following the October 7 massacre. In his interviews and public statements, he has been a fierce defender of Israel’s actions and its right to protect its people. He has faced relentless attacks, both from the left and from certain factions within Israel’s own political spectrum, but Shapiro remains steadfast. He believes, as do I, that defending Israel is not just about military might; it is about telling the truth in the face of constant lies. As he said, “Defending Israel simply means telling the truth about it.” That truth, of course, is that Israel is a sovereign nation that has the right to exist, defend itself, and flourish, no matter how loud the calls for its destruction become.

Shapiro’s bravery in the face of personal attacks, and his relentless pursuit of truth, epitomize the resilience and renewal that Israel itself represents. Even when the vitriol is high, and the pressure to compromise on core values is immense, Shapiro stands firm. He is a beacon of reason in an increasingly hostile world.

Col. Richard Kemp: A Military Mind Behind Israel’s Defense

Turning to the UK, we have Col. Richard Kemp, a military veteran who has dedicated his life to the defense of freedom. Having served in some of the world’s most dangerous regions, including Afghanistan, Iraq, and Northern Ireland, Kemp knows what it means to protect a nation from existential threats. His experience in military strategy and counter-terrorism has given him a unique perspective on the threats facing Israel.

Kemp’s advocacy for Israel goes beyond words – it is rooted in his first-hand understanding of the realities of warfare. In his writings and interviews, Kemp has been a consistent voice supporting Israel’s right to defend itself, particularly against terrorist organizations like Hamas. During Operation Protective Edge in 2014, Kemp was vocal in his support for Israel’s military actions, explaining why Israel’s response was necessary in the face of unrelenting attacks on its civilian population. He has been a staunch critic of those who attempt to demonize Israel’s defense efforts, often pointing out the hypocrisy and double standards applied to the Jewish state.

Kemp’s words on Israel’s defense strategy, particularly in his writings about how Israel has been forced to fight an unconventional war, demonstrate the complexity and necessity of Israel’s actions. His unwavering support for Israel during such trying times speaks volumes about his commitment to justice and his deep respect for Israel’s resilience in the face of unimaginable threats.

Douglas Murray: A Defender of Civilization

Finally, there is Douglas Murray, one of the most articulate defenders of Israel in the Western world. A bestselling author, public intellectual, and a frequent contributor to major media outlets, Murray has spent his career defending Western civilization and standing up against the forces that seek to tear it down. His support for Israel has been consistent and vocal, and his recent speeches and writings have continued to shed light on the reality of the situation facing the Jewish state.

Murray’s latest book, On Democracies and Death Cults: Israel and the Future of Civilization, explores the existential battle between Israel and its enemies. He contends that Israel represents the last stronghold of Western values in a region increasingly dominated by death cults. His analysis is sharp, his rhetoric powerful, and his commitment to Israel’s survival unshakeable. Murray’s contributions to the discourse on Israel have been invaluable, particularly in the way he articulates the broader ideological and cultural battle at play. As he said in a recent interview, “The West’s connection to Israel is existential. If Israel falls, it is not just Israel that loses. The entire Western civilization is at risk.”

Murray’s words echo the sentiment that Israel is not merely fighting for its survival – it is fighting for the very values that underpin Western civilization. His intellectual clarity and steadfast defense of Israel make him one of the most important voices in today’s geopolitical landscape.

A Final Word: Israel’s Resilience and Renewal

In a world increasingly divided by political correctness, cancel culture, and rising antisemitism, it is both refreshing and inspiring to see such steadfast defenders of Israel standing tall. For a while, I thought I was one of the few defending Israel outside its borders – but I was wrong. Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, Richard Kemp, and Douglas Murray are patriots absolute, and their unwavering support for Israel deserves our admiration. They embody the resilience and renewal that Israel itself represents – holding fast to the truth, standing up for what is right, and never backing down, no matter how intense the pressure.

As Israel continues to face threats from all corners, it is voices like these that will help guide the way forward. Their unwavering support for Israel, their clarity of thought, and their courage to speak out against the forces of extremism are an inspiration to us all. In a world that is increasingly woke, where moral clarity is often sacrificed in favour of political correctness, these patriots remind us that some things are worth standing up for – Israel being one of them. And as long as these voices continue to echo in the West, Israel’s future will remain bright, and its resilience will continue to shine.
