The Action Update: No More Forever Negotiations
On Friday, Israeli and Lebanese military leaders will be meeting at the Pentagon. The US and Israel share the same goal, ending Hezbollah’s reign of terror across Lebanon and northern Israel. Unfortunately, the powers that be in Beirut remain cowed by and/or sympathetic to the terrorists they’ve coddled for decades.
Let’s dive in.

CUFI Action Fund Statement on Kentucky Voters Ousting Rep. Thomas Massie
WASHINGTON – On Tuesday evening, the Christians United for Israel Action Fund released the following statements welcoming the forthcoming conclusion of representative Thomas Massie’s career in Congress. For the last month, CUFI Action Fund has worked relentlessly to ensure Massie could not escape his weak and unjustifiable positions in the face of the Iranian threat.
“The people of Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District have taken the first step towards shedding themselves of a long time embarrassment. In the GOP it should be crystal clear that if you choose the path of antisemitism, anti-Americanism, and more often stand with jihadists than stand up for Judeo-Christian values, your time in office will be short,” said CUFI Action Fund Chairwoman Sandra Hagee Parker.
“At the end of the day, the people of Kentucky chose a true warrior over a forever-contrarian, and I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have a Navy SEAL than a thorn in everyone’s side representing me in Congress,” said CUFI Action Fund Senior Director of Strategy and Public Policy, Boris Zilberman.

The CUFI Action Fund, a nonprofit 501(c)(4) nonpartisan organization, is the policy arm of Christians United for Israel (CUFI). The Action Fund works to ensure elected officials hear the perspective of millions of Christian Zionists across the country.

CUFI Action Fund Condemns Graham Platner
(5/8/26) WASHINGTON – On Friday, the leadership of the Christians United for Israel (CUFI) Action Fund released the following statement in response to Graham Platner becoming the presumptive Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Maine.
“That so-called ‘leaders’ now seek to support Platner is symptomatic of the sickness of Jew hatred and the weak-kneed approach of far too many.” said CUFI Action Fund Chairwoman Sandra Parker. “Anyone who promotes antisemitic conspiracy theories, praises Hamas terrorist attacks, legitimizes holocaust denial, and spreads false allegations of genocide, would be wholly unemployable in most fields; so too should he be unelectable in the Senate, and disqualified from representing any political party in our nation,” she added.
“Platner’s choice to tattoo his body with a Nazi Totenkopf, the skull-and-crossbones icon adopted by Nazi SS units and then defend the imagery a few short years ago should be reason enough that he be roundly opposed. Individuals such as Platner should be outright rejected from either party, not only because they put in danger American Jews who now face an unprecedented level of attacks but because they disparage the history, sacrifice, and valor of those fought to defeat Nazi Germany. Elevating someone like Platner tears at the very fabric of America.” said CUFI Action Fund Senior Director of Public Policy and Strategy Boris Zilberman
The CUFI Action Fund, a nonprofit 501(c)(4), nonpartisan organization, is related to the nation’s largest pro-Israel organization, Christians United for Israel (CUFI). The Action Fund is dedicated to ensuring our elected officials hear the perspective of the millions of Christian Zionists across the country.

The Action Update: Ending the (real) Forever War
Former U.S. Ambassador to the UN Samantha Power once wrote, “…the most important part of decision-making was not the justness of one’s intentions but the effectiveness of one’s actions.”
It’s a half-true (at best) quote from someone who advanced and supported some of President Obama’s deadliest policies and acts of indifference. Although ultimately irrelevant to all but the neo-leftist choir, Ms. Powers and this specific quote exemplify the lie that is the foreign policy establishment. The truth is that serious people ensure they are making both just and effective decisions – sacrificing one for the other is why Ms. Powers and her ilk ultimately set the table for the 10/7 Massacre, the current war with Iran, and the deaths of more than 30,000 Iranian protestors.
So, with this in mind, let’s check in with an Administration that doesn’t accept the (deadly) Powers Compromise…
