| THE LIE Activists and students argue that Palestinians are “better allies” than Israel, presenting them as oppressed victims who share American ideals of justice and human rights. |
| THE TRUTH ➜ Palestinians are radicalized: Surveys consistently show that two-thirds of Palestinians supported Hamas’s October 7 massacre, even after immense suffering in Gaza. This reflects not just opposition to Israel but endorsement of violence as a legitimate path. NPR, June 2024 ➜ Palestinians celebrated American tragedy: Palestinians were filmed cheering and handing out candy after the September 11 terror attacks. Today, chants of “Death to America” are heard not only in Gaza and Ramallah, but even at pro-Palestinian rallies on U.S. campuses and streets. Jewish Journal, Sept. 2024 ➜ Palestinians ideology rejects peace: The Palestinian National Covenant and Hamas charter still demand Israel’s elimination “from the river to the sea.” This is not a vision of coexistence but a call for erasing a U.S. ally and replacing it with an Islamist state. AJC Translate Hate ➜ Palestinian factions are recognized terrorists: Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), which works hand-in-hand with Hamas, is formally listed as a terrorist organization by the U.S., Canada, the UK, and Australia. Its sole objective is Israel’s destruction through violence, proving Palestinians are aligned with global jihad, not America. Australian Government, 2018 update ➜ Israel is a true ally: Unlike the Palestinians, Israel is a democratic state that shares America’s values of freedom and rule of law. It provides critical intelligence, develops lifesaving technology, and stands with the U.S. against terror. American leaders from both parties consistently affirm that Israel defends itself — and strengthens America’s own security.

| TAKEAWAY Palestinians are not America’s allies. They are aligned with radical Islam, anti-Western hate, and terrorism. Israel is – and always will be – the ally that strengthens America’s security and protects Western values. |
