'US Should Fund Jewish Construction in Judea-Samaria, Not Gaza'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 12-12-14 | Baruch Gordon

Posted on 12/13/2014 11:12:15 AM PST by DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis

In a stirring speech delivered at the annual Bet El Institutions dinner earlier this week, former Arkansas Governor and US Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee said that the United States should immediately cease its funding to the Palestinian Authority (PA) and allocate the same amount to housing for Jews in Judea and Samaria (AKA the West Bank).

Huckabee, who led three groups to Israel this year alone, said that he always brings tourists to a random Palestinian shop to ask to see Israel on the maps sold in the store. The shopkeeper inevitably looks confused because Israel doesn’t appear on their maps, he explained.

Turning to the group, Huckabee said:

“The Palestinians have refused to acknowledge the existence of Israel, and continue to teach in their schools that the Jews are targets for murder. This should be so unacceptable that the United States should send a simple message: Until the Palestinians are willing to acknowledge not only the right of Israel to exist, but until it tears every page of every textbook that has that kind of anti-Semitic, hateful, unacceptable, violent language within the textbooks for children - then not only will the US not support any type of negotiation, but the US will cease immediately to send another dime of support to the PA or to Gaza. And the money that would have been given will now go to send concrete to Israel so they can build new apartment buildings and neighborhoods throughout Judea and Samaria...”

In his speech, Huckabee questioned why the US government gets angry over construction of homes in the disputed territories. “If anything, our government should be encouraging Israel to build as many bedrooms as can be in Samaria, Judea and throughout the Land of Israel and especially in the capital of Israel, Jerusalem,” he declared.

I’ve always liked the idea of Chick-fil-a opening up in Israel. In fact I did a paper about in in one of my business classes. They just need to close on Saturday and take out or modify the couple items that have bacon in them (or substitute turkey bacon). Then viola!

if USA is going to send money over to that part of the world, it should DEFINITELY be used to help Israel and NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT the IslamoNazi terrorists in Gaza or Hezbellah or Hamas or “PA” or Syria or Iran or Libya or...any other of O’s murderous friends and comrades in arms

plus, if we want to bring the violence to a quicker end...showing that we support Israel and her right to her little country.... will deliver a very salutory, good message to all the IslamoNazi terrorists... RIght now, they think they can keep killing Jews and Christians because O is in the WH

How can the many Jewish-American Democrats in Congress, particularly the nine or ten in the Senate, not hang their heads in shame at the revelation that Mike Huckabee, a non-Jewish Republican, is working to help Israel survive against its enemies, while they themselves do nothing but support Israel’s principal enemy, Hamas, by providing them with $900 million of taxpayer money each year to buy rockets to aim at their brothers and sisters in Israel?

Of course, self-hating Jewish-Americans like George Soros and other wealthy pro-Palestinian liberal Jews, contribute greatly to Jewish-American Democratic politicians so maybe it’s not surprising that they’re such enemies of their own people.

A major Jewish-American Republican political donor is Sheldon Adelson. Maybe he should consider supporting Mike Huckabee for president in 2016, since he would at least speak up on behalf of Israel during the campaign season. And maybe we, in the much less affluent wing of Jewish-American Republicans, should also contribute to Mr. Huckabee’s campaign.

Kudos to Huckabee for his outspoken Israeli views.

P.S. Huckabee sucks.

Do you also want Huckabee to use my tax dollars to build you a house?

If individual Americans want to join me in giving, great. But this should not be funded by the US government.
