US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee launched the Ambassador Program in Jerusalem with a powerful address to a thousand Christian leaders, emphasizing the deep strategic and moral ties between Israel and the United States. Huckabee highlighted Israel's unique role as the region's only democracy and its commitment to religious freedom, urging attendees to stand firmly with Israel and confront misinformation upon returning home. He drew direct connections between threats to Israel and threats to America, stressing the importance of truthful advocacy and solidarity in the face of ongoing conflict and disinformation.

Dr Mike Evans, founder of the Friends of Zion Heritage Center, echoed these sentiments, underscoring the global partnership between the Evangelical community and Israel. He described Israel as a vital line of defense against extremism in the Middle East and called for honest engagement and support based on shared values and faith. The gathering marked a significant demonstration of support for Israel, aiming to strengthen global understanding and counter narratives that delegitimize the country.

Both speakers emphasized the importance of truth in public discourse and the need for influential leaders to guide their communities with clarity and conviction. The Ambassador Program seeks to deepen the connection between Christian leaders and Israel, equipping them to advocate for Israel's security, legitimacy, and role as a defender of freedom and stability.
