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. [*That would be ethnic cleansing]
Is this now official policy [I would assume so], it has been coming.
This is Trump’s idea for peace.
A fucking disaster I would call it for both Israelis and Palestinians.
“This is not at all surprising given what we’ve seen in the last four-plus months, including the administration’s open support for expelling the population of Gaza, the legitimization of Israeli settlement and annexation policies,” said Khaled Elgindy, a scholar at Georgetown University’s Center for Contemporary Arab Studies and former adviser to Palestinian negotiators.
*Looks like I will have to wait a bit.
I wonder what the reactions in Europe and the surrounding Arab world will be, as they have banked on a two-state solution
