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.
You’re correct in the general sense. But it’s not even 49%. It’s basically 2-10% of the American electorate. They flip-flop based on their own myopic, selfish impulses, and whatever bullshit they’ve been fed by the media.
In 2016 they swung it for Trump because unlike his opponent he’s a white guy, they didn’t like Clinton, and because Trump’s promises of cheaper gas for their big trucks would save them a bit of money each month.
In 2020 they swung for Biden because he’s also a white guy, they had discovered Trump just caused chaos without really delivering any personal benefits to them, and Biden looked like the more stable option for their pocket book.
In 2024 they swung for Trump again because unlike his opponent he’s a white guy, and they apparently have fucking goldfish memories.
Meanwhile, millions of other people in America and elsewhere in the world are being put through hell to a lesser or greater degree because of these people.
