Western conservative figures gathered at the International Conference Center in occupied Jerusalem, most notably the controversial Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson, the American conservative political commentator and writer Benjamin Ben Shapiro, the former US ambassador to Israel David Friedman and others, to discuss "the most important issues in the fields of culture, politics and intellectual life."

The event, which was held last Thursday, was sponsored by the "Tikvah Fund" in addition to Silla Meir and Schipule, and publishing houses translated into Hebrew the works of conservative and right-wing American authors.

The Tikva Fund is a New York-based non-profit organization that defines itself on its website as "politically Zionist, economically free-market oriented, culturally traditional, and open-minded."

On the podium, the speakers spoke to an audience of nearly 3,000 listeners, who each paid about $100 for tickets to attend, and Amyad Cohen of the Tikva Fund presented the guests praising their work against the "barbarians" who try to defeat reason and dignity and promote a global vision that abolishes national identity and disintegrates the family. According to a report by the Israeli newspaper, Haaretz.

The three are best known as authors of the conservative American website "The Daily Wire" founded by Ben Shapiro, which sponsored Peterson's recent video "A Message to Muslims" that addressed issues of sectarianism and religious division, and was described by critics as arrogant and full of images. Orientalist stereotype.

Jordan Peterson: The fate of the world depends on the people of Israel!

Addressing the right-wing Israeli audience, Peterson told the right-wing Israeli audience, "As a Jew in Israel, are you telling the greatest story ever? That's up to you to decide...You have an enormous moral responsibility."

And he added, "I think it is correct to say that the fate of the world depends on the people of Israel...You attract people here because of what you can do. Show us what the Holy City looks like because we need it."

The Israeli newspaper "Haaretz" commented that Peterson "showed his true color" in Jerusalem, as he appeared to thousands of Israeli admirers "more of a priest than a warrior of (religious) icons."

Peterson has previously considered that he does not believe that Islam can be compatible with democracy.

Canadian professor of psychology Jordan Peterson found only the day when more than a thousand settlers stormed Al-Aqsa on the occasion of the Throne Day, to roam its yards surrounded by occupation soldiers and other orientalists.

This is another example, clear and frank, of the arrogance and ignorance mixed with intolerance of the white man, regardless of his culture and academic degrees.

Peterson praised - in a message broadcast last July - the "Abraham Accords", calling in a high tone of Muslims in the Islamic world to stop fighting among themselves and consider Christians and Jews as their enemies, and a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto added, "The best place to find Satan, It's inside you. If you thought the real enemy was someone else's heart, you didn't think long enough."

Peterson's comments drew sharp reactions from Muslim activists who criticized his "high and superficial" advice on how to solve problems in the Muslim world. Commenting on Peterson's letter, anti-Islamophobia activist CJ Werlman said in a YouTube video that "Peterson wants to believe that Muslims backward and barbaric, while white men like him are educated, enlightened, and civilized."

Werlman added that Peterson talks about sectarian reform without knowing that this phenomenon in the Muslim world "was harnessed and nurtured by European colonial powers, which sought to plunder Muslim lands by dividing and subjugating the indigenous Muslim population."

David Friedman and the Biblical Narratives of Israel

In their speeches, The Daily Wire writers discussed the main challenges the Western world is currently facing, the dynamics of power and tyranny, and “how well-known Torah stories and fundamental belief in God serve as moral pillars for all of humanity, and Israel’s role in this where they can playing as an emerging technological and ethical superpower on the global stage,” according to the JNS news site.

After their words in the lecture, Peterson and Shapiro sat down for a conversation with former US ambassador to Israel David Friedman, who focused on the historical and biblical accounts of Israel, Israel's role as a Jewish nation-state, and put forward a debate about whether the United States was "on a cliff."

Friedman is widely credited with being the main figure behind moving the US embassy to Jerusalem, America's recognition of Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and contributing to the signing of the "Abraham" normalization agreements between Israel and Arab countries.

Friedman was close to former US President Donald Trump, and he was known for his refusal to establish a Palestinian state within the two-state solution. The legality of settlement in Judea and Samaria (West Bank).

Ben Shapiro: Muslim immigrants degrade the United States!

For his part, Ben Shapiro is described as one of the most prominent conservative faces in American politics and media, and is famous for his mockery of left-wing currents and "political correctness" and is known for praising Western culture and civilization, which he asserts "is superior to all other civilizations," while he said that immigrants from Islamic countries " They degrade the United States.

Shapiro calls for the removal of the Palestinians and the 1948 Arabs from the lands in which they live. In an article published in the conservative American website TownHall, Shapiro said that "the ideology of the Palestinian population is indistinguishable from the ideology of the terror leadership," comments that were described by his critics as fascist and indistinguishable. humanity, and retreat from each other.

In 2010, Shapiro said that "Israelis like to build, while Arabs like to blow up trash and live in open sewage."

In 2007, Shapiro wrote an article describing the "Palestinian Arab population" as "corrupt to the core" and blaming the Arab-Israeli conflict "on the Palestinian Arabs themselves."

He also believes that Israel and America will "continue to pay the price of blood and money" if they refuse to recognize the "simple truth" that claims that "the Palestinian Arab population generates terrorism, anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism"!!
