Trump picks pro-settlement Mike Huckabee as US ambassador to Israel
Briefly

Trump's nomination of Mike Huckabee as ambassador to Israel reflects a strong alignment with pro-settlement policies, diverging sharply from established international law and norms.
Huckabee's evangelical Christian beliefs shape his unwavering support for Israeli settlements, which he emphasizes as a biblical right, dismissing the concept of occupation.
The former governor's remarks are indicative of a broader trend among certain U.S. political figures who fundamentally alter the narrative around Israel's territorial claims.
The appointment suggests an intensified U.S. backing of Israeli settlements, complicating the already fragile peace discourse in the Middle East.
