Sen. Ted Cruz issued a powerful warning about the rise of antisemitism on both the political left and right during Hagee Ministries’ 45th Annual Night to Honor Israel in San Antonio. While condemning the “pro-Hamas contingent” within the Democratic Party, Cruz also acknowledged a disturbing trend of Jew-hatred emerging among conservatives. “These are real human beings, and it is spreading,” Cruz said, referencing recent public figures on the right who have downplayed Hitler’s atrocities. The senator recounted to attendees that even a simple “good morning” post on social media now triggers hundreds of antisemitic responses — a sign, he said, of growing darkness and deception infiltrating American discourse.

Speaking before a cheering crowd waving U.S. and Israeli flags, Cruz called on Christians to take a firm stand for biblical truth and for Israel. He warned that the church itself is being corrupted by false doctrines such as replacement theology and the lure of political isolationism. “It is unequivocally in the national security interest of the United States to support Israel,” he declared, urging believers to be bold and discerning in these perilous times. Echoing the words of Mordecai to Esther, Cruz reminded the audience that they were placed in this moment “for such a time as this” — a prophetic charge for the Church to stand against deception, defend Israel, and confront evil without compromise.
