Why the most vocal critics of Israel are also the most vocal supporters of the ‘Green New Deal
Green New Deal Advocates and Anti-Israel Sentiment: A Disturbing Connection
It should come as no surprise to witness the very same people calling for a “Green New Deal” and the energy disarming of America appear to be the very same people who are proudly anti-Israel. This became even more clear as many of us were gathering with family to celebrate gratitude during Thanksgiving, because opponents of American energy and Israeli freedom were hard at work at the same time.
First, protestors disrupted and were eventually arrested at the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade demanding “liberation for Palestine and planet.” Next, climate darling Greta Thunberg took to the streets of Stockholm shouting “Crush Zionism” to anyone who still listens to her.

And not to be forgotten “The Squad,” the four most intolerable and intolerant members of Congress, were among the very few to proudly vote against standing with Israel after the atrocities committed by Hamas. Yes, they are the same leaders behind the effort to force the “Green New Deal.”
It is not a coincidence. The loudest voices against Israel are also the loudest voices working to force a radical environmental agenda. It’s also not happenstance that the laws and rules they support just so happen to erode the strength of democratic nations, especially the United States and Israel.
The Authoritarian Green Agenda
After all, today’s green agenda is not an environmental movement, it’s an authoritarian one. Before dismissing this notion as hyperbolic, consider the cold, hard, facts which more than speak for themselves:
- Since taking office, President Joe Biden has issued 126 executive orders with many aimed at the American energy industry. At the same time, the Biden Administration is boasting about the fewest oil and gas leases in history. All while circumventing Congress.
- While working overtime to erode American energy, the Biden Administration turns a blind eye to Iranian oil sanctions. Since Biden’s swearing in, Iran is exporting more of their oil than ever. The ensuing billions of dollars flowing to Tehran can then be sent to support Hamas and Hezbollah. It is an arrangement that must make Greta and The Squad very happy.
- Once again using an executive order to go around Congress, Biden created the “Climate Corps” out of thin air…and a lot of public money. Biden’s goal is 20,000 activists that have their expenses, including housing and transportation, covered by taxpayers. Rest assured; the ranks of Thanksgiving parade disrupters will swell when they are nurtured by Biden’s green handouts.
- The avalanche of Biden’s proposed rules and regulations reach into every room of every American home. Gas stoves, gas-fed furnaces and gas-powered cars are all targets that the Biden Administration is working to ban without a single vote from Congress. In the meantime, the solar panels, electric vehicles, and batteries Biden claims will pave the way to the future are nearly 100% products of Communist China. As a real authoritarian regime, China is the biggest beneficiary of Biden’s green push at the expense of American family budgets. By the way, China is also a major customer of Iranian oil.
Those on the Left call it “intersectionality” when different groups jump on a cause just to support their political allies. It is the trend that enabled America’s teacher union leaders to suddenly became loud voices in the health arena during Covid lockdowns. The Left will close ranks to protect even the most extreme wings of their ideology. In this case, when it comes to protesting Israel and protesting American energy, those two wings have found common cause.
The consequences of these actions can be deadly. On the world stage, America is weaker when Biden and the intersectional Left push their agenda. From Greta to The Squad, ideas like the Green New Deal have nothing to do with the climate. And everything to do with knee-capping our allies abroad and America at home.
They’re all on the same team, and it’s not ours.

How do the actions of the protestors during the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade and Greta Thunberg’s statements reinforce the connection between proponents of the Green New Deal and their anti-Israel sentiment?
A disturbing connection has emerged between proponents of the “Green New Deal” and their anti-Israel sentiment. It is clear that those who advocate for the energy disarming of America and support the radical environmental agenda are often the same individuals who proudly express their anti-Israel views. This disturbing connection became particularly evident during the Thanksgiving holiday when opponents of American energy and Israeli freedom were actively working towards their goals.
During the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade, protestors disrupted the event and were eventually arrested for demanding “liberation for Palestine and the planet.” This blatant display of anti-Israel sentiment was further reinforced by climate activist Greta Thunberg, who took to the streets of Stockholm shouting “Crush Zionism.” These incidents clearly show that those who advocate for the Green New Deal are also vocal opponents of Israel.
Furthermore, the four Congress members known as ”The Squad” were among the few who proudly voted against standing with Israel after the atrocities committed by Hamas. These same individuals are leading the effort to force the Green New Deal, indicating a disturbing alignment between their environmental agenda and their anti-Israel stance.
This connection between anti-Israel sentiment and the Green New Deal is not a coincidence. It is the result of a shared ideological framework that seeks to erode the strength of democratic nations, particularly the United States and Israel. The radical environmental agenda supported by these individuals is not simply an environmental movement; it is an authoritarian one.
There are several facts that support this assertion. Since taking office, President Joe Biden has issued numerous executive orders aimed at the American energy industry, while boasting about the fewest oil and gas leases in history. This circumvention of Congress shows a disregard for democratic processes and an authoritarian approach to governance. Additionally, the Biden administration has turned a blind eye to Iranian oil sanctions, allowing Iran to export more oil than ever before. The resulting billions of dollars can then be used to support terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
Moreover, President Biden created the “Climate Corps” through an executive order, bypassing Congress once again. This initiative aims to deploy 20,000 activists whose expenses, including housing and transportation, will be covered by taxpayers. This not only expands the reach of the radical environmental agenda but also nurtures a culture of entitlement and dependency.
Perhaps most concerning is the avalanche of rules and regulations proposed by the Biden administration, which aims to ban gas stoves, gas-fed furnaces, and gas-powered cars without any vote from Congress. At the same time, the administration promotes solar panels, electric vehicles, and batteries that are largely produced by Communist China. This reliance on an authoritarian regime undermines American sovereignty and strengthens China’s position on the global stage.
In conclusion, the disturbing connection between advocates of the Green New Deal and their anti-Israel sentiment highlights a shared ideological framework that seeks to erode democratic nations’ strength. The radical environmental agenda supported by these individuals is not focused solely on environmental concerns but is an authoritarian movement that undermines democratic principles. It is imperative to recognize and address this connection to safeguard the interests of both the United States and Israel.
