Star Parker, founder and CEO of the Center for Urban Renewal and Education (CURE), and members of CURE’s media team attended last week’s March for Israel in Washington, DC.

The team captured interviews with Americans at the march. On CURE’s YouTube page, you’ll find five brief clips of those interviews. We’ve shared one below.

Hear from those who are speaking out against the evil of terrorism, despite any fear they may feel. When Hamas, a Palestinian Islamic terrorist group, attacked Israel on October 7, they unleashed the fury of freedom-fighters intent on protecting the innocent and seeing that justice is served.

“Israel is a beacon of freedom and a strong ally of the United States,” Star said in a statement. “For those who value democracy and the rule of law, Israel represents a rare and crucial example in a region fraught with instability. Israelis fight in order to survive. Hamas fights because they want to kill. We must come together and stand with Israel and against those such as Rep. [Rashida] Tlaib.”

Star explained in a recent column why the left hates Israel and America.
