US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee: It might sound like I’m speaking on behalf of Israel

US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee:

It might sound like I’m speaking on behalf of Israel rather than the US. But let me explain why.

Imagine you came to my house for dinner and said, "Mike, we really like you. We think the world of you. We’re so glad to be here."

But then you added, "Oh, by the way, we can’t stand your wife. We hope she’s not going to be at the table tonight."

My response would be simple: "Well, she will be. And you won’t be. Please leave."

Because if you insult my partner, you insult me. You’re saying I made a terrible choice.
