President-elect Donald Trump will nominate former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee as ambassador to Israel, Trump announced Tuesday.
Huckabee is a staunch defender of Israel and his intended nomination comes as Trump has promised to align U.S. foreign policy more closely with Israel’s interests as it wages wars against the Iran-backed Hamas and Hezbollah.
“Mike has been a great public servant, Governor, and Leader in Faith for many years,” Trump said in a statement. “He loves Israel, and the people of Israel, and likewise, the people of Israel love him. Mike will work tirelessly to bring about Peace in the Middle East!”

“He’ll attempt to bring the after christ…”
Easily done…..just encourage Bibi to bomb the Iranian nuclear sites.
Hopefully, his moishichist sentiments will be tempered by his new boss, Secretary of State Rubio who is also a great friend of EY, but in a bit more pragmatic way.
I would do a better job after they pay for my free hotels in Jerusalem but what’s political science
Gov Huckabee has been on the good list consistently for 50 years or so.
Good man with conservative ideals.
The yeshuah will come despite his prayers.
