I took a trip to Israel to tour the Christian holy sites, thanks to Yoram Hazony and the Herzl Institute.

After a week of arguing with academics and Members of Knesset, I gained insight into why Israel has lost so much support from the US and UK right.

Conservatives see a double standard between the Zionism enjoyed by Israel, and the liberalism forced upon Britain, Europe, and the United States. We shouldn't be expected to abide by absurd international laws and take in dangerous Muslim immigrants if Israel doesn't do it too.

Just as Israel is a homeland for the Jewish people, England should be a homeland for the English, Europe for Europeans, and the US for heritage Americans.

We should copy Israel's successful model of nationalism. If it's good enough for Israel, it's good enough for us.

No matter what you say on this topic, you will be called either an antisemite or a paid-off Zionist. (Or, in my case, both.) I don't care who accuses me of insufficient loyalty to their cause. I am loyal to my own thoughts, and just say what I think.
