JD Vance’s recent visit to Jerusalem isn’t just a photo op; it’s a powerful statement that so many on the left refuse to make. While liberals squirm at the thought of standing with Israel, afraid to ruffle their globalist feathers or confront radical Islam head-on, Vance boldly reaffirmed America’s traditional alliance with the Jewish state — and paid homage to our Christian roots at the same time. This trip exposes the stark contrast between resolute conservatives and the feckless liberal establishment, who spin endless excuses while Israel’s enemies keep firing rockets and holding innocent hostages.
Kneeling at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a sacred site where Christ is believed to have been laid to rest before His resurrection, Vance demonstrated something too few in Washington have these days: faith, conviction, and respect for the spiritual foundations that built the West. Unlike the elitist left, who often sneer at Christianity or reduce it to a political weapon, his gesture underscores a deeper moral clarity. This is a man who has embraced his faith seriously, and it shows in his willingness to stand with Israel amid relentless attacks from Hamas terrorists.
JUST IN: V.P. JD Vance visits the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.
“What an amazing blessing to have visited the site of Christ's death and resurrection. I am immensely grateful to to the Greek, Armenian, and Catholic priests who care for this most sacred of places.

It is no coincidence that this visit comes as Israel grapples with the slow and agonizing return of hostage remains from Hamas. The brutal terrorist group continues to cling to these prisoners as pawns in a deadly game — and the globalist media tries to pretend there’s nuance here. The reality is simple: Hamas is a barbaric enemy violating ceasefire agreements to hold onto leverage. Meanwhile, the cowardly left continues to debate whether America should back Israel or not, betraying our closest ally on the world stage. This betrayal isn’t just shameful; it’s dangerous.
Vance’s solidarity with Israel, tied firmly to support for President Trump’s ceasefire deal — the only deal serious enough to recognize Israel’s right to defend itself — stands in sharp relief against the hollow gestures and weak-kneed diplomacy favored by the Biden administration and its Democratic allies. While liberals dither, Israel’s enemies remain emboldened. This isn’t a call for “balance” or “both sides” false equivalency; it’s a call for raw, unapologetic support of freedom and civilization against savage terrorism.
If the left can’t muster the courage to stand with the bastions of Western faith and democracy, then what are they really defending? It’s high time conservative leaders like JD Vance show the way and stop appeasing the enemies of our values and allies. Because when push comes to shove, there’s no room for fence-sitters or moral cowards in the fight for the future of the West.
