Politico: Huckabee's Israeli Odyssey

[Agorism]

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0211/49750.html

A parade of Republican presidential hopefuls is making its way to Israel, signaling the candidates’ seriousness about foreign policy and national security and their hawkish approach to terrorism. As POLITICO recently reported, “A stop in the Jewish state is becoming as critical as an early trip to Iowa or New Hampshire.”

But while Mitt Romney and Haley Barbour check the Israel box and move on, Mike Huckabee lingers. This month, the former Arkansas governor spent two weeks in Israel on his 15th trip to the Jewish state, during which his suggestion that the Palestinians go find their own state in some Arab country prompted a settler leader, Dani Dayan, to announce that he is praying Huckabee will be elected president.

They have much more right to their own land than (for example) North and South Americans or Australians...what a prick.

Native Americans are included here though, and they an vote.

I dont care about all that "buahhh land belongs to the indians buahhh" leftist crap. Those were different times and different set of values what is done is done. I was just saying that it takes some nerve (not to mention lack of humanity) for someone to say that.

Maybe Huckabee should try to disguise himself as a "common" man and go to some of those settlements and kibutz to learn the hard way what they really think of his gentile christian arse...
