Patriotism Under Attack: Rep. Mast Stands Strong

The recent wave of antisemitic rhetoric from certain far-left figures highlights a disturbing trend in American politics, where patriotism is mocked, and service to America is vilified.

Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL), a decorated veteran who valiantly served in the U.S. Army and later volunteered with the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), has come under fire from a vocal anti-Israel faction led by pastor Rick Wiles.

Wiles, who runs a far-right Christian news site notorious for spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories, has labeled Mast a “traitor” for his supporters of Israel, particularly during a critical time when anti-Israel sentiment is rising.

This attack is not merely about Mast. It reflects a broader narrative that seeks to undermine the credibility of individuals who stand with America’s allies in the ongoing battle against terrorism.


Mast, having lost both legs and serving honorably in Afghanistan, represents the courage and resilience of American servicemen and women. He exemplifies the type of patriotism that should be celebrated, not condemned. His decision to wear his IDF uniform in defiance of those who downplay the seriousness of terrorism is a statement of solidarity—something Wiles and others clearly misunderstand.

Interestingly, Wiles’ zeros in on Mast’s commitment to Israel while neglecting the sacrifices made for the United States. Contrast this with Rep. Rashida Tlaib and her “Hamas Caucus,” who have yet to denounce the heinous acts of violence perpetrated by Hamas. Their silence speaks volumes about where their allegiances lie.

As Israel grapples with threats from Iran and Hezbollah, it's crucial to recognize American leaders like Mast who stand firm against such aggression. Instead of supporting our allies in this critical conflict, figures like Wiles perpetuate the dangerous narrative that equates defense of Israel with treachery against America.

Wiles has even obscured his true intentions with incendiary statements, advocating for narratives aligned with those espoused by certain radical groups. This should alarm any American who values true patriotism and support for democratic allies.

In today's climate, where antisemitism is alarmingly on the rise, it reinforces the necessity for solidarity with Israel as they face threats to their very existence.

Attacks against those who serve in defense of liberty—both at home and abroad—should not stand unchallenged. Americans must unite against the growing tide of divisive rhetoric and support those who embody true patriotism in these times of turmoil. Rep. Brian Mast’s steadfast commitment to both the U.S. and Israel deserves our recognition and appreciation, not derision.

The stakes are high, and voices like Wiles' only threaten to undermine the principled stands taken by true patriots. It is essential to stand firm against this wave of anti-American and antisemitic sentiment.
