US envoy says ‘without Israel, there would be no America’

US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said that “without Israel, the United States would not exist”, during his participation in a settlement conference held on Tuesday evening at Herodium National Park, about 6 kilometres southeast of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank. According to Maariv, the event was titled the “International Conference on Israeli Heritage and Archaeology in Judea and Samaria” — the biblical term used by Israel for the West Bank. In his speech, Huckabee said: “My role is not only to represent the United States in Israel, but also to convey Israel’s importance to the United States.” READ: ‘Without me there is no Israel’ says Trump warning Tel-Aviv to stop flattening homes Addressing Israeli Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu, in […]
