On Monday, Glenn addressed the Knesset, the legislative branch of Israel. Glenn was introduced by Knesset member Danny Danon of the Likud party, who welcomed Glenn saying, “(I am) glad to host a friend of the State of Israel… Usually we don’t clap here in the Knesset, but maybe we can do that at the end.”
The Jerusalem Post reports:
Beck discussed how the shocking reality of Israeli everyday life, under constant threat of terrorism, does not prevent the public from living their lives comfortably and casually.
In his classic simplified yet brazen style, the pundit explained “the few things I actually know” about Israel:
1) The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is about destruction of Israel and the west.
2) Anti-semitism is going to go through the roof. When these conditions appear, it’s always the Jews fault. It’s not about the holocaust, (that’s) just the latest in a string of events thousands of years. Holocaust is just the one they made a movie about. It was the same way all the time.
3) The world is about to change, so think differently. Everything you thought you can count on, forget about it, (and) create new systems.
4) The truth shall set you free.
Beck then explained that his plan for Israel advocacy is based on communal outreach. “If you go to a synagogue, reach out to a church. If you go to a church, reach out to a JCC. Say, will you watch this with me? After that we’ll talk and eat and get to know one another.”
