Thread title is inaccurate, Huck says they're not settlements, they're communities:


Huckabee visits West Bank: 'Build Israel Great Again'

https://i.imgur.com/f8t27YB.jpg

Standing in front of a bright red banner reading "Build Israel Great Again," former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee promised Tuesday during an appearance in the West Bank that President-elect Donald Trump's policies toward Israel would be very different than President Barack Obama's.

Huckabee was in Maale Adumim to lay the cornerstone for a new neighborhood in one of the largest Israeli settlements in the West Bank, just east of Jerusalem. The former Arkansas governor and strong supporter of Israel held a hat with the same catchphrase, and said he would bring one to Trump, whose campaign slogan "Make America Great Again" was the inspiration for the Maale Adumim banner.

Huckabee told CNN that he rejected the use of the word "settlements."

"I think Israel has title deed to Judea and Samaria," said Huckabee, using the Biblical terms for the West Bank. "There are certain words I refuse to use. There is no such thing as a West Bank. It's Judea and Samaria. There's no such thing as a settlement. They're communities, they're neighborhoods, they're cities. There's no such thing as an occupation."

Why would you allow Huckaboo or CNN to dictate titles of discussion topics here.

"At the beginning of the Republican presidential campaign, Trump turned to America’s Jews and teased them: “You’re not going to support me because I don’t want your money!” Such a comment about Jews and money had not been made for many years, particularly not by an American president. He also said that Israel, like any other country, would have to pay for the aid it received. If he is a man of his word—and let’s hope that he isn’t—we are in deep trouble. Where are we going to get $38 billion from? Even if we stop funneling money to the settlers and to the Haredim and even if we cancel the Public Broadcasting Corporation, we will still be tens of billions of shekels short. "
