Transcript [00:00] All right. Well, joining me now is Dr. [00:01] Susan Michael, director of the American [00:04] Christian Leaders for Israel, and Troy [00:07] Miller, president and CEO of the [00:09] National Religious Broadcasters. Welcome [00:11] to you both. Doctor, I want to start [00:13] with you. This is simply horrifying. [00:16] We're talking about the political [00:19] assassinations here. Two Israeli [00:21] diplomats gunned down not in a war zone, [00:24] but in Washington DC. What say you? No, [00:28] it's absolutely horrific and shocking. [00:31] And I lived in DC 30 years. I worked [00:33] very closely with the Israeli embassy. [00:35] We went to many events in the city. Just [00:38] two weeks ago, Troy Miller was there. We [00:41] had an event for Jews and Christians at [00:43] another museum in Washington DC. So, [00:46] it's just shocking to think that over [00:50] political differences that someone could [00:52] be gunned down in the streets. But of [00:54] course, we know that it politics is just [00:58] the excuse for this anti-semitic attack. [01:01] It's about killing Jews. It's not about [01:04] policy. It's about killing Jews. And [01:07] they're just using Gaza as an excuse. [01:11] Troy, it's a it's a good point. And I [01:14] heard CNN trying to defend all of all of [01:17] this. And one of the eyewitnesses shot [01:19] back and you heard it there in Logan [01:20] Radics Logan Ratics reporting. um what [01:24] who is responsible for this anti-semitic [01:27] atmosphere in this country right now? [01:30] Well, first of all, as Susan said, our [01:33] prayers go out with the families here uh [01:35] of the victims. But look, this is the [01:37] radicalization that's happened on the [01:39] college campuses. It's happened in the [01:41] mainstream media. We even see it coming [01:43] from members of Congress uh that have [01:46] been out there about this. Whenever you [01:48] hear the chant from the river to the [01:50] sea, uh people know what that means. [01:52] It's calling for the murder. It's [01:54] calling for the genocide of the Jewish [01:56] people. And so, we've let this go on uh [01:59] too long. We're very pleased that [02:01] President Trump has been cracking down [02:03] on this on the college campuses. But I [02:05] tell you what, Todd, the sad thing is is [02:08] this story, because this was a radical [02:10] leftist that did this, this story will [02:13] probably disappear from the mainstream [02:15] media in the next day or two. [02:18] Uh yeah, I' I'd bet a Chick-fil-A [02:20] sandwich on that one, Troy. That's uh [02:22] that's exactly what's going to happen. [02:24] Uh doctor, I want to bring you back in [02:27] here. How do how do we fix this? It [02:30] seems like things are just simply out of [02:32] control right now with this [02:33] anti-semitism. And I'll just go ahead [02:35] and bring this bring this up. Also, the [02:37] anti-Christian atmosphere on these [02:39] university campuses. [02:42] Yes, it's a liberal, progressive, [02:45] anti-American anti-Christian [02:47] anti-Israel, anti-Jewish movement. It's [02:50] it's many different facets to it, but [02:53] you know, the real solution [02:55] um against the [02:57] anti-semitism is what you've got on your [02:59] screen today. Two major organizations [03:02] that uh working together. We we have [03:05] built we have spent several years [03:07] building educational resources about [03:09] anti-semitism courses, books, hundreds [03:12] of articles and through our partnership [03:15] with the national religious broadcasters [03:17] where they have an association of almost [03:20] every Christian ministry involved in TV, [03:23] radio, podcasting, any communicator. We [03:27] have to reach the Christian community in [03:29] America and educate them about the [03:32] dangers of anti-semitism. Many of them [03:34] don't understand how dangerous it is and [03:37] they don't know how to recognize it when [03:39] they see it. And we need to educate them [03:41] how to recognize it and how to stand [03:44] against it because we cannot expect the [03:47] Jewish community to stand alone in the [03:49] face of this. They need their friends to [03:52] stand with them. And so it takes a [03:54] collaborative effort of many [03:56] organizations, but we're working on that [03:59] to reach our own community. We have an [04:02] army, a potential army across America in [04:04] the Christian community if we can engage [04:07] them and mobilize them. [04:10] Well, I I will go a step further. I [04:12] don't think it's not only is it evil, I [04:14] I think it's also satanic what we are [04:17] seeing here, these these attacks and [04:19] this this these monstrous people that [04:22] are out there. Troy, here here's what [04:24] concerns me and I've been uh getting [04:27] feeling these calls on my national radio [04:29] show. There is there is a movement of [04:32] foot within our own our own group, the [04:35] conservatives and the Christians that [04:37] are starting to push back and say maybe [04:39] we should not be as supportive for [04:41] Israel. What what do you what do you say [04:43] to those [04:45] people? Although, first of all, I say [04:48] they they have no grounds to stand on [04:50] for for that. And Todd, that's a small [04:52] group. They're they're a vocal group. [04:54] There's been a a few of these so-called [04:56] key influencers that have brought this [04:57] up, but that's a small small group [05:00] within the Christian uh community, the [05:02] vast uh uh members of our organization, [05:05] the the 90 million people that we reach [05:08] uh uh plus they're behind Israel. We've [05:11] had several events where over a thousand [05:12] churches uh have been praying for our [05:15] Jewish uh uh brothers and sisters, [05:17] praying for peace. Um so, as Susan said, [05:20] this is a this is a collaborative [05:22] effort. This is a a movement we have to [05:24] to really fight and we have to fight the [05:27] mainstream stereotype uh that's [05:29] continued to to push out there. You [05:32] know, the the thing that really comes [05:33] into this is we have to hold to a solid [05:36] Judeo-Christian worldview. And that [05:38] worldview says that all of us are [05:40] fallen. All of us have have faults in [05:42] our lives, not just one group. You can't [05:44] pin this these things on one group. And [05:47] that that's what the left has tried to [05:48] do. the the the Jewish people are now [05:51] the the new uh enemy. They're the new [05:53] oppressors that that are out there. And [05:56] that's the problem. It's it's really [05:57] Todd, as you said, it's a clash of world [06:00] views. On one side, you have a [06:02] Judeo-Christian worldview that values [06:04] life at the highest. On the other side, [06:07] you have a far-left extreme secular [06:11] group that doesn't value life. And you [06:13] have an extreme Islamist group that has [06:15] called for jihad that that once they [06:18] wipe out Israel out of the Middle East. [06:20] They're looking at America as the big [06:23] Satan big time. Yeah. They're coming [06:25] after all of us. And it is it is [06:28] imperative that Christians in America [06:30] stand alongside our Jewish brothers and [06:32] sisters. And I'm glad uh that both of [06:34] your major organizations are doing just [06:36] that. Dr. Susan Michael Troy Miller, we [06:39] have to leave it there. Thank you for [06:40] joining us on Newsmax, part of our [06:42] breaking
