"Talking about Israel only blinds us"
Alex Jones Urges End to Obsession with Israel and Jews
During his remarks, Jones claimed that the world must learn from the history of obsession with Jews that led, for example, Germany to the abyss, and generally leads.
Alex Jones, the host of Infowars, is facing accusations of shifting his stance on Israel, with critics claiming he has "run off the Israel train."
The controversy erupted following a video posted on X, where Jones sarcastically addressed the extent of media coverage dedicated to Israel.
"All I hear in the comments is Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel, maybe i should have a 10 hour show about Israel... There are other topics in the world, election integrity, and the globalists, and the neo-con cabal, and the left... we need focus on that too, and it all got cut down... the Israel issue is like a black hole topic that sucks all populists into it"
The remarks, have sparked a firestorm of reactions from his audience and political commentators.
In the video, Jones laughed, "There is no issue worth covering on all of planet earth except for ISRAEL," and further exaggerated, "In Fact, Israel is the Only Thing that Exists in the UNIVERSE." While framed as satire, these comments have been seized upon by detractors as evidence of a softening stance facing the wave of anti-israel rethoric on the right.
Jones acknowledged a range of opinions from his callers, noting, "Some callers say we should devote 100% of our coverage to Israel"
Jones's history with Israel-related content is extensive, dating back to the early 2000s when he often highlighted what he described as Israel's undue influence over U.S. policy.
"Every time I post something about China, people say, 'You're defending the Jews'... I cover everything, there's an awakening, but so much of it is just about Israel, and that's fine, but everyone turns into a one-trick pony."
Jones added, "Talking about Israel only blinds us to everything else happening around us... but it's not enough. I could attack Israel for 10 hours a day, and people would still say, 'Why aren't you covering Israel?' During his remarks, Jones claimed that the world must learn from the history of obsession with Jews that led, for example, Germany to the abyss, and generally leads.
