Tommy Robinson leaves Israel with a MESSAGE the world needs to hear
After two intense weeks on the ground, I caught up with Tommy Robinson to unpack his emotional journey across Israel.
After almost two relentless weeks documenting Tommy Robinson’s historic visit to Israel, we’re officially calling a wrap on our coverage.
Our team gave you front-row seats to everything the mainstream media refuses to show. Because if you relied on the BBC or Sky News, you’d have no idea what really happened during this trip.
When I asked Tommy how he felt at the end of the journey, he didn’t hold back. “The trip's been beautiful. It's been harrowing. It's been heartbreaking. It's been fun. It's been all those things in one,” he told me. “Every emotion you think you can feel.”
I’ve been travelling across Israel with @TRobinsonNewEra for 11 days now — and the reaction has been UNREAL.

From meeting hostage families to spending time with soldiers and locals, Tommy said he was struck by how many Israelis thanked him simply for “telling the truth”. As he put it, “It's pretty mad and sad… people going, ‘Oh my God, thank you.’ Thank you for what? For saying the honest truth of what's happening?”
Tommy was deeply moved by the warmth he received, but also frustrated that so few in the West speak openly in defence of Israel. “Everyone who cares about Western civilisation should be on the side of Israel. It's as simple as that,” he said.
He also described feeling something spiritual during the trip. “Christians prayed for me and I said, ‘Wow, I think I felt the Holy Spirit,’” he recalled. “I wish I got baptised here... I’ll probably come back and do that.”
Reflecting on his biggest revelation, Tommy pointed to Israel’s tough stance on illegal immigration. “They saw the problem and dealt with it. They built a fence and stopped the mass immigration. Ours don’t,” he said.
As for the backlash to his visit, Tommy was unfazed. “I go where I want, whenever I want,” he said. “Israel’s a beautiful country. I’m coming back.”
We need your help.
Here’s the truth — this reporting isn’t cheap.
The trip to cover Tommy in Israel and the (hopefully) end of the war with Hamas has cost over $25,000 AUD. Flights alone were more than $10,000, and with accommodation, transport, and security, this is one of our most expensive assignments yet.
