NOT IN OUR LIFETIME: 'No Room' for a Palestinian State, Huckabee Says
Netanyahu relies on evangelical support in the U.S.
Mike Huckabee, the pro-Zionist extremist tapped by U.S. President Donald Trump to serve as his ambassador to Israel, said in an interview that he does not believe Washington is interested in pursuing a Palestinian state.
“Unless there are some significant things that happen that change the culture, there’s no room for it,” he told Bloomberg. He said he doubts that any state will be formed “in our lifetime.”

Huckabee, a former Baptist pastor and the one-time governor of Arkansas, told the BBC that it should be up to “Muslim countries” to give up land for such a state, implying that Palestinians should be ethnically cleansed in Gaza and the West Bank.
“So maybe, if there is such a desire for the Palestinian state, there would be someone who would say, we'd like to host it,” he said.
Huckabee is either ignorant or as dumb as he looks, because he must know that neighboring countries are opposed to Palestinians being forced out of their homeland, again.
He was asked if a Palestinian state could be formed in the West Bank, and he replied: “I wouldn't say there can never be, what I would say is that a culture would have to change. Right now the culture is that it's OK to target Jews and kill them and you're rewarded for it. That has to change.”
