They Pretend They Were Friends With Charlie Kirk
A pointed attack on pro-Israel commentators accused of faking their closeness to Charlie Kirk after previously resenting him.
- Charlie Kirk, though broadly pro-Israel, pushed back on endless U.S. wars abroad.
- That skepticism made some allies, including Ben Shapiro, turn on him.
- Now those same figures publicly claim they were close friends with Kirk.
- The charge: they demand total loyalty and treat any disagreement as betrayal.
Outlook: Expect the feud over Kirk's legacy and the pro-Israel wing of conservative media to keep simmering.
