A profound change is underway in Latin America, as socialist and communist regimes traditionally sponsored by radical Islamist forces tend not to survive. Nicolas Maduro, once the banker of left wing regimes, will end his days in a dark prison. In Brazil, international drug traffickers from the PCC and Red Command are under scrutiny by the US administration. A new international partnership pledges to combat antisemitism, and drug trafficking in Latin America and around the world, including former Portuguese colonies and their banks connected with Hezbollah and interests linked to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Claudia Sheinbaum, who became Mexico's first female and first Jewish president in October 2024, is not considered a political ally of Israel, but despite pressure from some members of her party to break diplomatic ties with the Jewish state, she had not done so, maintaining a pragmatic approach to the relationship. Israeli security forces have defended her on the ground in recent years when Sheinbaum's mortal adversaries defaced the streets of major Mexican cities with slogans against the "Jewish whore" and others even worse.
Netanyahu's promise
Netanyahu's promise to defend Judeo-Christian civilization around the world and firstly in Lation America already includes Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, Panama, and Costa Rica, with these nations forming a "core bloc" of pro-Israel support, often supported by strong evangelical movements, particularly in Brazil, Guatemala, and Honduras.
Argentina's President Javier Milei is a key ally in Prime Minister Netanyahu's defense of Judeo-Christian civilization, as formalized through the "Isaac Accords" announced in Jerusalem yesterday. This strategic partnership,, designed to protect Judeo-Christian values, specifically aims to fight terrorism and counter ill influence in Latin America.
Isaac Accords
The new "Isaac Accords" are modeled on the "Abraham Accords" and focus on security and economic cooperation between Israel and Western Hemisphere nations. Yesterday, April 19, Javier Milei positioned Argentina as a key defender of Israel, promising to move the Argentine embassy to Jerusalem and promoting "Judeo-Christian civilization" as the foundation of their shared geopolitical values.
The Argentine President has a strong, well-documented connection with the Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidic movement. He is an admirer of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Menachem Mendel Schneerson, has visited the Rebbe’s gravesite (the Ohel) in New York multiple times, and has attributed his election victory to the Rebbe's blessing.
Though born Catholic, Milei has expressed deep admiration for Judaism, studies Torah, and has engaged closely with Chabad leaders. He has a personal rabbi, Shimon Axel Wahnish, and has relied on guidance from Chabad-Lubavitch figures.
