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.

    The protest voters amounted to some ~800k last time I did my research (check my profile for a post that goes over this).

    RFK forgot to pull out of the general election, and he amassed some ~1 million votes.

    Literally the Trump admin’s own hubris cancelled out the Uncommitted Movement’s efforts.

    But sure: let’s ignore Biden’s deep hatred and racism for Palestinians while ignoring that emocrats lost more voters than what new voters became eligible between 2020 & 2024.

    Let’s also ignore Biden’s awful, self-serving aim to run against Trump in 2024, when previously he had said he was a one-term candidate. And this old fuck couldn’t back out of the race until he was cumpstered and dumpstered on the national stage, leaving Kamala only months to prepare a campaign. Let’s not forget that there were people on voting day that didn’t even know Kamala was running (they assumed Biden).

    Let’s also ignore Kamala’s decent into fascism-lite, saying things like “the strongest military in the entire world” at the DNC, following along with right wing framing on immigration, and inviting Liz fucking Cheney on the campaign trail. This is also ignoring Kamala’s horrendously tone deaf policies aimed towards business and home owners, when most people don’t own businesses and don’t own.

    There is a generational divide in the country on Gaza. Young people under, say, 40 oppose everything this country has aided and abetted regarding Gaza. Older than 40, people don’t give a shit.

    So, have you just dated yourself? Are you too much of a bitch and coward to stick up for state mandated murder abroad? Or are you one of those soy libs that ignores all of America’s war crimes yet points out everything wrong with China?

    American foreign policy is uniparty. If you don’t protest that, you’re complicit.
