John Ondrasik, the Grammy-nominated singer behind Five for Fighting, has released a powerful new version of his hit song “Superman” to honor Israeli hostages still held by Hamas. The reimagined anthem features updated lyrics demanding freedom for captives like 24-year-old Alon Ohel, who has endured brutal conditions in Gaza for over a year. Ondrasik debuted the tribute on conservative outlets like NEWSMAX and Fox News, calling it a “battle cry” for patriots worldwide to stand with Israel against terrorism.
The song’s revised lines—like changing “a home I’ll never see” to “a home I soon see”—highlight the unbreakable spirit of hostage families. Ondrasik praised these families as “superhuman” for surviving 17 months of agony while global leaders ignored their suffering. His collaboration with Alon’s mother Idit Ohel sends a clear message: America won’t abandon its allies in their fight for survival.
Hostage Square in Tel Aviv served as the backdrop for the emotional music video, where families held photos of loved ones kidnapped during Hamas’ October 7th massacre. Released hostages confirmed Alon needs urgent medical care after being starved and tortured. Ondrasik slammed Hollywood liberals for staying silent while terrorists brutalize innocent civilians.
The singer isn’t Jewish and has no family in Israel, proving solidarity with the Jewish state transcends bloodlines. He’s visited Israeli troops and hostage rallies multiple times since the attacks, calling the experience “life-changing.” His yellow ribbon campaign and new song “OK” pressure weak-kneed politicians to demand immediate releases.
While coastal elites parrot Hamas propaganda, real Americans back Israel’s right to defend itself. Ondrasik’s bold stance contrasts sharply with woke celebrities who blame Israel for Hamas’ crimes. His music rallies patriots to reject moral equivalence and recognize evil when they see it.
Idit Ohel appeared tearfully on Fox News, begging the world to save her son. She described Alon as a gentle soul who loved music before terrorists turned him into a bargaining chip. Ondrasik vowed to keep shouting Alon’s name until every hostage comes home—no matter how long it takes.
This isn’t just about Israel. It’s about defending Western values against radical Islamists who want to destroy freedom. Ondrasik’s anthem reminds us that heroes still exist—in the IDF, in hostage families, and in everyday Americans who refuse to look away.
The clock is ticking for Alon and 57 others rotting in Hamas tunnels. Ondrasik’s message cuts through the noise: Pray harder, speak louder, and never surrender to terror. Freedom will win if we have the courage to fight for it.
