Tommy Robinson, British activist and journalist, sat down with Shifra Jacobs to share his thoughts on his trip to Israel and his evolving views since his first visit in 2016. Robinson, known for his outspoken stance on Islam and immigration, described his current visit as an eye-opening experience, highlighting his admiration for Israel’s unity and resilience in the face of ongoing conflict.

Israel’s propaganda struggles

Robinson expressed concern that Israel is losing the global “propaganda war,” particularly among younger generations, due to a well-organized disinformation campaign. He emphasized that his 2016 visit allowed him to understand the real security challenges Israel faces, drawing comparisons to the political divisions in the UK.

Facing backlash

Throughout his career, Robinson has faced significant backlash, especially for his pro-Israel views. However, he remains undeterred, stating, “The truth always prevails.” He likened his experience of being targeted by the media to the challenges faced by Jews in the UK, noting the importance of speaking out against misinformation.

What’s next for Robinson?

As Robinson prepares to return to Britain, he reflected on the rising anti-Israel sentiment and his plans for a new documentary addressing the UK Labour Party's handling of grooming gangs and its relationship with Muslim communities. Despite the ongoing criticism, Robinson remains determined to continue challenging the establishment and speaking out for what he believes in.
