Too many media outlets out there look at Israel as an equal player in the world of politics with Hamas — and antisemitism abounds.

It’s crucial to discern which news outlets can be trusted for their coverage on Israel, and which cannot. And Chris Ruddy, CEO of Newsmax, was just noted by the Israel Allies Foundation for his pro-Israel stance with a listing in this year’s Israel’s Top 50 Christian Allies.



“There’s a lot of media misinformation and spin … and lies that are being put out about Israel and specifically Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,” Ruddy said.

“I’m very proud of standing with Israel,” he went on.

As for the peace deal and its chance to last — Ruddy said, “I have no idea … it was done in good faith … but the Arab states have not been very good, certainly the PLO, the Palestinians, have not been very good in upholding their part of the bargain.”

All true.
