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.

      Because following the holocaust the world decided that everyone owed the Jewish people a homeland and the US was a key player in a) ending the holocaust and b) making Israel happen.

      No US President is going to turn their back on that. Biden did not do anything different than every other president in the past 70 years.

        Palestinians has nothing to do the holocaust. Actually 13k Palestinians volunteered to fight nazi Germany. Maybe the united state should has offer some land to zionists to create it’s state .

        No US President is going to turn their back on that. Biden did not do anything different than every other president in the past 70 years.

        I don’t give a damn, every single president who defended israeli occupation is a war criminal and should be held accountable

            The world decided to give Jewish people a homeland and they picked (then) Palestine

            Most of the world didn’t decide this and more importanly the local population refused

              At that point, following the holocaust, it didn’t matter what the locals wanted, it was imposed on them regardless.

                  Support for Israel was not. Supporting Israel at the expense of any other people was.

                    Bro that’s the whole history of israel. Israel should have zero protection against anybody until they go back to pre 67 territory
