Conservatives Divided Over Israel and Iran

Jun 16, 2025

As Israel intensifies its military campaign against Iran, a surprising battlefront has emerged within the American conservative movement. President Donald Trump, once a near-universal favorite among Christian Zionists and pro-Israel conservatives, now finds himself navigating a rift among his supporters. For those who support Israel both strategically and biblically, this moment is both revealing and unsettling. It’s becoming increasingly clear that the conservative coalition is not unified on America’s role in the conflict—divided between staunch defenders of Israel and a rising tide of isolationists. On one side stand those who view Israel’s strikes as justified acts of self-defense against the growing nuclear threat from Iran; on the other, populists and “America First” voices warning against any involvement that could lead to another foreign entanglement.


Tucker Carlson has become a leading voice in this isolationist camp, accusing Trump of complicity in Israel’s actions and warning that such support undermines the core values of the MAGA movement. His narrative, gaining traction in certain circles, suggests that aiding Israel equates to betraying American interests. Yet not all populist conservatives agree. For Christian Zionists, this is a pivotal moment to stand firm. Our support for Israel is not merely political—it’s rooted in Scripture and covenant. As Iran threatens not just Israel but regional stability, this is not the time for retreat. It’s a time for conviction, clarity, and courage—because not every conservative is a friend of Israel, and now more than ever, we must be.


Stay Awake. Keep Watch.
