U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee isn’t afraid to call out lies. During a recent Fox News appearance, the former Arkansas governor slammed global critics blaming Israel for Gaza’s crisis. “This is nonsense,” he declared. “Israel is defending itself against Hamas terrorists, not starving civilians.”
Media outlets worldwide push a false narrative that Israel intentionally blocks food and aid. Huckabee insists this ignores Hamas’s deadly attacks and Israel’s right to protect its people. “They want us to believe Israel is evil,” he said. “It’s just not true.”
The ambassador confronted claims of mass starvation directly. “I’ve seen what’s happening in Gaza,” he said. “Israel isn’t holding back food – Hamas is using civilians as shields.” He blamed Palestinian leaders for refusing peace deals and, instead, funding weapons.
Critics point to Israel’s strict blockade since March, but Huckabee called it necessary. “Our ally can’t let terrorists smuggle weapons into Gaza,” he explained. “Global leaders should back Israel, not side with Hamas.”
Huckabee made his comments just days after visiting Gaza with a U.S. delegation. They aimed to debunk fake claims spread by leftist activists and Democrats in Congress. President Trump’s team stands firmly with Israel, unlike the previous administration.
Some Republicans complain the U.S. should pressure Israel for “peace,” but Huckabee rejects that. “We shouldn’t appease terrorists,” he said. “Our focus must remain on stopping Hamas.” His stance matches most American conservatives who prioritize national security.
When asked about Palestinian statehood, Huckabee warned: “Hamas has already proven they can’t govern. A Palestinian state now would hand power to terrorists.” He urged lawmakers to focus on supporting allies like Israel over weak compromises.
Huckabee ended with a powerful message to Americans: “Don’t believe the liberal lies. Stand with Israel and refuse to give in to terror.” Conservatives nationwide are applauding his bold defense of freedom and morality.
