Israel deserves ‘reparations’ for genocide, says trump ally

Mike Huckabee is the US ambassador to Israel. Huckabee has always been a controversial figure, and yet he’s never had a run like the last few days:

Don’t heart Huckabee

Al Jazeera reported the following on who Huckabee is:

The devout 69-year-old evangelical Christian was born in the southern US state of Arkansas.

He served as governor of his home state between 1996 and 2007 before launching unsuccessful bids to be the Republican presidential candidate during the 2008 and 2016 primary seasons.

They added:

Huckabee is a staunch supporter of Israel.

After his appointment, Trump released a statement in which he said Huckabee “loves Israel, and the people of Israel, and likewise, the people of Israel love him. Mike will work tirelessly to bring about Peace in the Middle East!”

His appointment demonstrates a “very hawkish, very pro-right-wing Israel” approach by the Trump administration, Yossi Mekelberg, an expert on Israel at the Chatham House think tank, told Al Jazeera.

Many American evangelicals support Israel, but not because they like Israelis. In actuality, they think the creation of Israel is a signifier that the end times are approaching, and that Israel will trigger the Rapture.

If you’re unfamiliar with the term, the ‘Rapture’ is the time when God calls his faithful back to heaven. Said ‘faithful’ will not include the Jewish men and women who live in Israel, even if they do play an instrumental role in jump starting the Armageddon.

Israel — ‘Reparations!’

In the clip above, Huckabee was asked:

Should Israel be expected to even pay one penny to rebuild Gaza at this point?

The first point to make here is that even if Israel was asked, they wouldn’t be the ones paying; it would be the countries which keep this rogue nation financially solvent (i.e. the US and its lackey states like Britain). Secondly, of course they should be asked; they literally levelled the place.

This is how Huckabee responded:

Absolutely not. Absolutely not. And I’ll tell you, if anything, there ought to be reparations to Israel for the extraordinary fight that they have had to conduct to get their hostages back, 252 including many Americans.

To quote Drop Site’s Ryan Grim once again:

Reparations!

This really highlights the cry-bully mindset of the Zionists.

They don’t just want to commit genocide; they want the world to perceive them as the victims of their own atrocities.

Anti-democracy

Huckabee has also attracted criticism for comments he made in conversation with Tucker Carlson:

There is literally no bottom with these people.

They will always find a way to sink further, and they will always be furious when you confront them with the reality of their own depravity.
