Jackson Hinkle Joins Anti-West Khamenei Funeral Chants

Jackson Hinkle, an American anti-Israel influencer, reportedly participated in Khamenei’s funeral ceremonies as crowds chanted against the United States, Zionists, and Israel.

According to the report, Hinkle joined calls of “Death to the USA,” “Death to the Zionists,” and “Death to Israel.”

Hinkle was born and raised in California and now resides in Russia, according to the same report.

The Tanakh says, “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.” That warning speaks directly to the moral inversion on display when an American-born influencer stands with an Iranian regime built on threats against America and Israel.

Who Is Jackson Hinkle?

Hinkle is a U.S.-born online political commentator and influencer who gained attention through a mix of pro-Russian, anti-Israel, and anti-Western messaging.

He has branded himself with “MAGA communist” language, while promoting views that often align with Russia, Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis.

Jewish and extremism-monitoring organizations have repeatedly flagged his online activity. ADL identified Hinkle as one of several far-right influencers who used the Israel-Hamas war to grow their audiences on X while spreading anti-Zionism, hate, and conspiracy theories.

Reporting tied to the Network Contagion Research Institute also described Hinkle as an American influencer used by foreign and extremist actors to spread anti-Western propaganda.

He has appeared in settings linked to hostile actors, including Hezbollah and Houthi circles, and has reportedly lived in Moscow.

America And Israel In The Same Crosshairs

Hinkle’s participation at Khamenei’s funeral matters because the chants were not aimed only at Israel.

They targeted America as well.

The crowd’s calls of “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” expose the ideological unity between anti-Americanism and anti-Zionism inside the Iranian regime’s orbit.

For the United States, Hinkle represents a disturbing phenomenon: an American citizen using American platforms and influence to echo the slogans of America’s enemies.

For Israel, he represents another front in the information war. Tehran and its allies do not only fire missiles or fund proxies. They also use Western voices to launder hatred against Israel through social media.

That same hostility appeared in “Iran Official Threatens Trump Over U.S. Warning.” Mohammad Baqer Dhu al-Qadr warned Trump to speak to Iran “with respect,” exposing Tehran’s hostility toward America and its wider threat to Israel.

Hinkle’s chants fit the same pattern. Iran threatens America directly, while its online allies target Israel and Zionism with the same language of destruction.

A Shared Moral Calling

The United States and Israel both face enemies who understand that words shape war.

Iran’s slogans are not harmless theater. “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” are statements of political theology, strategic intent, and ideological hatred.

The United States and Israel also share a covenantal understanding before God.

America’s covenantal tradition is rooted in liberty under God, ordered justice, and the belief that government must protect freedom. Israel’s covenant is older and unique, rooted in God’s promise, Jewish peoplehood, Torah, and the return to the land of Israel.

Those covenants are not identical. However, they meet in a shared calling: defend life, resist tyranny, and reject regimes that sanctify death.

In this story, that calling means recognizing that anti-Americanism and antisemitism often march together. It also means refusing to excuse an American-born influencer who echoes the slogans of a regime that threatens both Washington and Jerusalem.

For Israel, the duty is to defend Jewish life against Iran’s military, proxy, and propaganda networks. For America, it is to confront those who use American freedom to amplify the enemies of freedom.

Hinkle’s presence at Khamenei’s funeral is therefore not just an online provocation. It is a symbol of how Iran’s message travels through Western platforms, Western personalities, and Western political confusion.
