When Media Bears False Witness Against Israel

Recently, Tucker Carlson gave airtime to an Orthodox nun who accused Israel of committing “genocide” against the Palestinian people. Rather than challenging these falsehoods, Carlson allowed them to go uncorrected—giving legitimacy to rhetoric that has been historically used to justify antisemitism and violence against the Jewish people.

This moment reflects a troubling pattern. From Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens to those who platform them, such as Charlie Kirk, voices with significant influence in the conservative Christian community are repeating dangerous talking points that distort both history and Scripture.

Bearing False Witness

The Bible warns us plainly:

“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” —Exodus 20:16

Israel is not committing genocide. Israel is a sovereign nation fighting for survival against Hamas and other Iranian-backed terrorist groups who openly declare “Death to Israel, Death to America.” To accuse Israel of genocide while ignoring the atrocities of her enemies is to bear false witness—something Christians must reject.

Biblical Mandate to Bless Israel

Scripture also reminds us:

“I will bless those who bless you, and curse those who curse you.” —Genesis 12:3

Christians have a biblical responsibility to stand with Israel, not to question or undermine her legitimacy. Every time voices within the Church or conservative circles adopt anti-Israel rhetoric, they open the door to replacement theology and antisemitism masquerading as political commentary.

PJTN’s Response

At Proclaiming Justice to The Nations (PJTN), we are confronting this disinformation directly. While billions of dollars from foreign actors like Qatar are being funneled into American media and education to turn hearts away from Israel, PJTN is producing award-winning documentaries, programs, and podcasts to equip Christians with truth.

One example is our documentary, Boycott This!, which exposes the lies behind the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement and highlights the countless ways Israel blesses the nations through innovation, technology, and humanitarian aid.

Through resources like this, PJTN is empowering Christians to resist the lies, stand against antisemitism, and reaffirm the biblical covenant God made with Israel.

Standing Firm Together

Tucker Carlson’s platforming of antisemitic rhetoric is just the latest reminder of why PJTN’s mission is so urgent. If we remain silent, false narratives will continue to grow unchecked, leading more Christians astray and endangering Jewish communities worldwide.

Now is the time for Christians to stand boldly, reject false witness, and proclaim biblical truth about Israel and the Jewish people.
