Mike Huckabee suggested any future Palestinian state should be carved out of ‘a Muslim country’
Mike Huckabee, the US ambassador to Israel, has said that the US is no longer pursuing the goal of an independent Palestinian state, marking what analysts describe as the most explicit abandonment yet of a cornerstone of US Middle East diplomacy.
Asked during an interview with Bloomberg News if a Palestinian state remains a goal of US policy, he replied: “I don’t think so.”
The former Arkansas governor chosen by Donald Trump as his envoy to Israel went further by suggesting that any future Palestinian entity could be carved out of “a Muslim country” rather than requiring Israel to cede territory.
I want there to be a distinction in the minds of voters as much as there is in reality between not doing enough and what the Trump admin is doing.
We were always going to keep our strongest ally in this proxy war, but we did not promote killing or removing every palistinian. The latter IS what the Trump admin is pushing for.
You seem not to be following the news. For someone who was reading news daily of how many killed, every time Blinken visit Israel next day at least 50 to 100 killed.
Reality is the US was promoting killing and removing every Palestinian. They literally asked Egypt and Jordan to take them. It was not “not doing enough” vs " outright support" it is “laying about support” vs “not laying about support”
The same happening with countries that says “we stop arm shipment” yet they are sending directly previous deals and re-routing new deals…
Again if you like Biden domestic policy and prefer to be lied to when it comes to foreign policy it is okay. But lets not pretend that one is better.
The news talked about the administration withholding large bombs bought and paid for while still pushing through small armaments without congressional approval. The news talked about Biden swearing at Netanyahu over the phone. The news quoted Netanyahu’s favorable opinion of Trump.
The news later talked about Trump delivering those large bombs. The news talked about Tanks on the ground in West Bank for the first time in decades.
Trump’s Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth openly admits that death or mass exodus is the plan now when it wasn’t before.
