For years, we have warned about the clear and growing threat of the Islamo-leftist alliance, not just to the Jewish community, but to all Americans and Western civilization. This movement has long masked its antisemitism behind the guise of anti-Israel activism, using slogans of social justice and human rights. But as we cautioned, its true face is now on full display: an alliance determined to dismantle the core values of our nation.
Disturbingly, we are now witnessing alarming signs on the right as well. A rising faction of conservative isolationists believes America should withdraw from global leadership and focus solely on narrow self-interests. For them, America’s alliance with Israel is seen as a liability. Figures like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens have openly spread antisemitic rhetoric and conspiracy theories, seeking to erode the historic U.S.-Israel partnership. Anti-Americanism is no longer confined to one side of the political spectrum.
In our latest article, “Enemies Within: Islamo-Left Alliance and Far-Rightists,” we examine this dangerous convergence of extremist ideologies. On the far left, radical movements align with Islamist groups, promoting antisemitism and anti-Americanism as was evident in the targeted murder of Jewish embassy staffers in Washington, D.C. this May and the vile celebrations that followed. On the right, “America First” isolationists pushing to undermine U.S. global leadership, weaken strategic alliances, and abandon American global responsibilities. Though ideologically opposed, both movements are antisemitic and reject American democratic values, posing a grave threat to our future.
This analysis expands on the message from our earlier piece, “Whether You Voted for Trump or Biden, All Americans Must Come Together Against Radicalization” where we called for unity against extremism during the transition from the first Trump administration to Biden. We also highlighted the Abraham Accords as a model of cooperation America should champion. Today, we renew that call: radical forces on both the political and religious extremes stand opposed to peace and the core values that define this nation.
Finally, we encourage you to explore the critical work of Honest Reporting, a media watchdog organization that monitors news coverage for bias and promotes accurate, fair reporting on Israel and the Middle East.
Wishing you a great month ahead,
Gila and Adam Milstein
