    Huckabee is hardcore zionist. He is a piece of shit, regardless of this performative disagreement with the country he has helped to empower to do nazi shit, with US weapons and money.

      He is a piece of shit, regardless

      100% agreed with that statement, but I wonder if he’s an even more hardcore MAGAt than he is zionist, because at least temporarily I could see those two fascistic movements coming into conflict with each other

        Regardless of his first loyalty, be it to evangelical dickheads and Israel, or the President’s party, the President’s party (not only them,) is controlled by Israel through blackmail.

        It sounds fantastic but it’s true, epstein, but surely other stuff too. Until we expose that blackmail, or supplant those crooked swells, nothing will change.

        I think that’s a good theory, since it’s very unexpected to see him saying these things.

        For what it’s worth, I can imagine that he’d turn on Netanyahu to maintain favor with Trump, but ultimately I think his hunger to see a war that ushers in the biblican end-times supercedes all other motivations for him.

    This is jaw dropping. I wonder if this is pressure by the Trump regime to get Israel to get in line behind whatever Iran deal Trump can conjure.

    Vance has publicly rebuked Israel to be “careful” with it’s most powerful ally. Netanyahu then rejected Trump’s peace plan. Friction from a normally sycophantic Huckabee may a signal that America’s love isn’t unconditional.

    Whatever private channels of leverage Israel has in the US, they appear to be weak.

    Despite what Alex Jones will tell you, Israel is a vassal state to the US, not the other way round. It may seem confusing considering how bad of an ally Israel is. But that’s my point, people on the left and right are starting to wonder if Israel is more trouble than she’s worth.

      You are way off base. Israel has blackmail on the ivy league swells that control the US. Not to mention the UK and elsewhere.

      Israel, and their superfans, are not supplicants, they are lording over us, the greatest country in the world, treating us like a bitch.

      That is the truth.

      Wouldn’t a vassal state be controlled by the suzerain state? Israel is acting as an uncontrollable rogue terrorist state.
