"A lion-hearted friend of Israel, he fought the lies and stood tall for Judeo-Christian civilization, the Israeli prime minister wrote on X. I spoke to him only two weeks ago and invited him to Israel. Sadly, that visit will not take place. That push, to portray Kirk as a fallen champion of Israel as much as of the US conservative movement, comes as many influential right-wing commentators have been increasingly critical of Washington's unconditional support for its Middle East ally."
"Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir paid tribute to Kirk on Wednesday, sharing a photo of the right-wing activist with an Israeli flag outside the Ibrahimi Mosque, one of Islam's holiest sites, in the occupied West Bank. The collusion between the global Left and radical Islam is the greatest danger to humanity today, Ben-Gvir said. Charlie Kirk saw the danger and warned about it. But the bullets of the despicable murderer struck him."
American right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk was shot and declared dead. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described him as a lion-hearted friend of Israel and said he invited Kirk to Israel weeks earlier. Other Israeli officials, including Foreign Minister Gideon Saar and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, paid tribute and emphasized Kirk's support for Judeo-Christian values and Israel. Ben-Gvir shared a photo of Kirk outside the Ibrahimi Mosque in the occupied West Bank and blamed collusion between the global Left and radical Islam. No suspect has been detained and the motives remain unclear. Kirk was a close ally of Donald Trump and had publicly criticized Islam and promoted conspiratorial views.
