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.

      Most wars of the last 100 years are heavily influenced by American decisions. Who they elected as president is not domestic policy, it directly influences the amount of missiles that will be raining on your friends.

      It’s the difference between “let’s build a symbolic pier do deliver two cartons of milk” and “let’s exterminate them so we can build a hotel”.
