Just months before his assassination, conservative leader Charlie Kirk penned a lengthy and impassioned letter to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, reaffirming his "deep love for Israel and the Jewish people" while urging the country to radically reform how it communicates with younger generations in the digital age.
The five-page letter, dated May 2, pushed back against rumors — fueled by fellow conservative commentator Candace Owens and others — that Kirk had soured on Israel.

Instead, it revealed a man deeply committed to defending the Jewish state, though frustrated with what he called its "communications malpractice."
Kirk, co-founder of Turning Point USA and a prominent voice among young conservatives, began his letter with a heartfelt affirmation: "Everything written here is from a place of deep love for Israel and the Jewish people. I think it's important to be brutally honest with those you love. In my opinion, Israel is losing the information war and needs a communications intervention."
The letter cataloged his experiences on college campuses, where audiences of up to 5,000 students routinely peppered him with hostile questions about Israel.
From accusations of "apartheid" and "genocide" to conspiracy theories blaming Israel for 9/11, Kirk said the barrage reflected a dangerous generational shift.
Citing polling that nearly half of 18-24 year olds sided with Hamas over Israel, Kirk warned that anti-Israel sentiment was seeping even into MAGA circles. "This should be a five-alarm fire," he wrote.
Kirk's letter did not stop at criticism; it outlined a detailed communications strategy. At its core was the idea that Israel must take the lead rather than outsourcing its defense to American surrogates.

He urged Netanyahu to create a rapid-response media team akin to President Donald Trump's communications apparatus, capable of countering misinformation

How many months before Sept 10 did he pen that letter. Is there a copy, or is it released by TPUSA or Netanyahu?
Most passionate people I know in "MAGA circles" are utterly exhausted by America's military and financial involvement in sh!t-holes all over the globe. The first "A" in MAGA means America, not Israel, Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia or any other country where corrupt globalists have spent hundreds of billions of dollars in U.S. taxpayer money over the years.
I see the date of May 5th, but is there a copy? I am one of those who does not trust the Zionists, I don’t hate them. I just see them as very close to the Islamists in philosophy. Integrate into other countries society, and work from within.
He’s right to call out that Israel has a huge problem with public image and Jews in general online and among growing numbers of Americans, and around the world in general.
I have no idea how they fix that though.
You can already see here that parts of Maga have already been brainwashed.
I wear a Newsmax hat in public just to stir up the hornets nest. Always looking for new converts.
The New York Post posted the letter Sept 29. Many other outlets have published it since.
Countries who bless Israel will be bless and countries who curse Israel will be cursed.
I can readily see why your moniker is "Glad2bnuts". It really fits you, if you make a statement like that. How can you possibly compare Zionism, a love for the land of Israel (promised to us by G-D) with the brutal savages of muzzlimes? I don't see anything so great about "other countries society", with thievery, gays, transgenders, bigotry, sexual depravity, etc., so why should I aspire to integrate into them? Jews are intended by G-d to keep to their separate ways.
Tell you what---I don't trust YOU, after such a non-thoughtful blanket dismissal of Zionism really is.
Looking for the link for the 5 page letter.
All the links go to pages talking about Charlie Kirk things, but without a link to the 5 page letter and then selling Newsmax subscriptions.
Ignorance knows no bounds. I would point out that your Bible is written by Israeli Zionists.
Thanks for the actual link to the letter.
But you trust morons like Candace?
If you disagree with someone, you do not have to do it with insults. Why not post rebuttals. I find Candace to be a top notch mind, and point on.
