Left-wing Americans ‘changed’ pro-Palestine view when confronted with ‘true facts’

Progressive Americans changed their perception once they were shown the “true facts” of Palestine’s treatment of the LGBTQ+ community, filmmaker Ami Horowitz says.

Mr Horowitz travelled to the West Bank and interviewed Palestinians to see what they think about gay people and then played that footage back to progressive Americans.

He said “every single person” he spoke to “changed” their pro-Palestine position – with one American questioning the accuracy of the left-wing narrative on the issue.

“People are less jaded than you think and when confronted with facts and you have them captured in the sense they’re now listening to you … you can change people’s perceptions once the facts, the true facts, are given to them,” Mr Horowitz said.
