"If Ever There Was a Just War, Israel is Fighting It" – David Keyes Delivers Powerful Defense of Israel’s Righteous Battle Against Hamas Evil

David Keyes, former advisor to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has issued a strong and compelling defense of Israel’s military campaign against Hamas. In a powerful video message, Keyes declared that if ever there was a just war, Israel is fighting it right now. He drew clear parallels to historic Allied actions in World War II, including U.S. bombings of Japan and British operations in Burma, noting that Israel faces even greater proportional threats from an enemy embedded right on its border while achieving lower relative civilian casualties.

Keyes directly challenged critics like Piers Morgan by highlighting the barbaric scale of Hamas’s October 7 massacre and the group’s use of Gaza civilians as human shields. He emphasized that Israeli soldiers make split-second life-and-death decisions in one of the most challenging urban battlefields in history, much like Allied forces did against existential threats in the past. Victory for Israel means the possibility of peace, while a Hamas victory would lead to further genocide against Jews and regional chaos.

This clear moral framing reinforces what supporters of Israel have long understood: the Jewish State is engaged in a legitimate war of self-defense against a genocidal terrorist organization backed by Iran. With steadfast support from the Trump administration, Israel continues to fight with determination and ethical clarity. Such strong voices defending the truth are essential in countering biased narratives and ensuring the world recognizes the justice of Israel’s cause.
