# Unwavering Support for Israel: Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos Questions the Global Lack of Awareness Regarding the Conflict

*Cayey, Puerto Rico – June 15, 2025*

In a public speech focused on the situation in the Middle East, Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos reaffirmed his **“one hundred percent”** support for the State of Israel, while directly criticizing segments of the international community for having an incomplete understanding of the conflict.

During his message on Sunday, June 15, 2025, the leader noted that much of the criticism directed at Israel stems —in his view— from a lack of historical knowledge and an absence of a broader understanding of the origins and evolution of the Hebrew nation.

## Criticism of International Public Opinion

Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos referred specifically to new generations and certain opinion outlets which, in his analysis, address the conflict without considering its background and underlying causes.

Along those lines, he maintained that many of these sectors **“don’t know the history or the promises”** that support Israel’s existence and sovereignty, highlighting a gap between global perceptions and what he considers to be the conflict’s structural reality.

His presentation introduces a recurring topic in his remarks: the need to reinterpret the Middle East situation from a perspective that combines history, politics, and long-term projections.

## Israel as a Global Stability Factor

Beyond the immediate defense of the Israeli state, Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos argued that support for Israel goes beyond the regional level and is directly linked to the international system’s stability.

In that context, he stated: **“We are an understanding people and we know what God has for Israel,”** noting that the country’s territorial development and consolidation not only serve national interests but would also have implications for global stability.

This approach positions Israel as an actor whose evolution impacts beyond its borders, reinforcing its centrality in the international agenda.

## Permanent Monitoring and Direct Action

The leader also noted that he closely follows developments in the region, emphasizing the need for active monitoring of the conflict’s evolution.

In his own words: **“If I’m not here, I’ll be there… wherever I am, I will be fulfilling the prophecies,”** making it clear that his actions are not limited to public statements, but include a permanent willingness to intervene in various situations.

This stance reinforces the idea of a dynamic strategy, in which a physical presence and direct action are integral to its operational focus.

## A Sustained Course of Action

The message is part of a series of recent statements in which Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos has been advocating for a more defined alignment of Latin America with Israel, including the relocation of embassies to Jerusalem and the abandonment of neutral positions.

With this new declaration, he consolidates a narrative that combines **political support, strategic analysis, and international exposure** in a context where foreign policy decisions are becoming increasingly significant.

In a global landscape marked by persistent tensions, his stance aims to influence both public opinion and decision-makers, arguing that one’s position on Israel will be a determining factor in shaping the future international order.
