He expressed disappointment that Budde did not offer a path for collaboration between church and state on immigration issues. He has been a vocal supporter of Trump and has engaged in discussions about faith and activism in the context of social justice.

Breitbart: PragerU: Ambassador Oren on Ceasefire, Israel’s ‘Moral Strategic Dilemmas'
Former Israeli U.S. Ambassador Michael Oren discussed the recent ceasefire deal with Hamas, which involves Israel partially withdrawing from Gaza and releasing around 1,900 terrorists in exchange for 33 hostages. He emphasized the moral dilemmas faced by Israel, balancing the need to retrieve hostages against the potential increase in future terrorism.
Oren highlighted the unprecedented military challenges the Israeli Defense Forces face in Gaza, where they confront a large number of terrorists embedded within a civilian population. He noted that the current ceasefire may ultimately benefit Hamas and called for accountability regarding the failures leading up to the October 7 attack.

Times Of Israel: IDF didn’t act on alerts of Hamas aerial activity hours before Oct. 7 attack — report
On October 7, 2023, Israeli defense officials received early warnings of potential Hamas attacks but failed to act decisively. Intelligence suggested various threats, including rocket fire and infiltration, yet military leaders dismissed the severity, believing Hamas preferred calm.
As a result, hundreds were killed and many taken hostage during the Hamas onslaught, leading to the resignation of top IDF officials over their roles in the intelligence failures. Despite prior assessments downplaying Hamas's threat, the attack exposed critical misjudgments within Israel's military leadership.
