A Christian volunteer explains why he chose to serve in Israel’s army and responds to critics abroad.
In a preview of his conversation with Ethan Hedding, Dinesh D’Souza explores a question that has sparked debate online: why would a Christian choose to serve in the Israel Defense Forces?
Hedding, a Christian who volunteered for the IDF, describes his personal journey, his faith, and the convictions that led him to stand with Israel in uniform. He explains that his decision was rooted in biblical belief, moral clarity about the threats Israel faces, and a desire to take action rather than remain a distant observer.
The discussion also touches on criticism from segments of the American right, including comments made by media figures such as Tucker Carlson. Hedding offers a direct response, arguing that support for Israel should not be a partisan issue but a moral one. He emphasizes that defending Israel is consistent with his Christian identity, not a contradiction of it.
