British patriot Tommy Robinson, currently visiting Israel, visited Yad Vashem — the Holocaust museum in Jerusalem — for the first time on Monday, issuing a clarion call in support of the Jewish state and warning against the dangerous antisemitic rhetoric spreading across social media.
“Yesterday I visited the Holocaust museum in Israel,” he began. “It was the first time for me. To go into detail, to hear in detail, to understand, actually, the depravity of the crimes that were committed against the Jewish people. And not just depravity, but what built up to it.”
“And do you know what I took from that museum and what I took from that tour?” he continued. “I understood a lot more why words are so important to the members of the Jewish community. I’ll be honest, sometimes over the years when words had been said, even innocently, I’ve seen a massive backlash and a huge deal made out of these antisemitic tropes or allegations of antisemitic tropes. I never quite understood it. After visiting that museum and understanding that Jews didn’t just get murdered to start with, there was a big build-up of propaganda to do with antisemitic tropes. I learned a lot more and what I took from here gave me more of an understanding why there’s so much emotion from members of the Jewish community.”
“That’s what I took from here,” he stated. “It made me understand a lot more why there’s so much fear and for then, remember I haven’t gone through that history, that was my first time but I guarantee every single British Jew, every Jew around the world understands the full horrors of what their people and their race went through.”
“So, really you understand why this homeland, this country, why this place of safety is so important to them and also why they must fight and never stop fighting because of what history has done to them,” he concluded.

Earlier this month, Israel’s Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli extended a high-profile invitation to Tommy Robinson, calling him a “courageous leader” in the fight against radical Islam. Robinson is known for his unapologetic stance against jihadist extremism and his support for Israel.

“In the wake of the horrific Manchester terrorist attack, Israel and the Jewish people stand firmly with our allies in the United Kingdom,” Chikli wrote on X. “Tommy is a courageous leader on the front line against radical Islam… He has proven himself a true friend of Israel and the Jewish people.”
Robinson, who accepted the invitation, emphasized the trip as a personal mission — not one motivated by compensation or fanfare, but by shared values and a mutual struggle. “The horrific Manchester attack has strengthened my conviction that the United Kingdom and Israel are fighting the same battle—against the scourge of Islamic jihad,” Robinson posted on X. “Their fight is our fight. I’m a proud British patriot and a Zionist.”
Speaker of the Knesset Amir Ohana declared, “Looking forward to hosting you at the Knesset mate! You’re doing a great service to your country, but more than that. As I have said repeatedly since Oct 7, far from being a local struggle — this is a global battle, between the forces of radicalism, extremism and fundamentalism, and those of freedom, liberty and democracy. Western civilization is under attack — and it’s our duty to stand firmly together — and win. See you in Jerusalem!”
