Tel Aviv \u2013<\/strong> In a brazen display of arrogance and profound insensitivity, Mike Huckabee, the former US ambassador to the Zionist entity and a fervent proponent of its brutal wars in the region, has audaciously instructed the people of Lebanon to express gratitude for alleged Israeli contributions to their society. This demand comes as the Lebanese nation endures relentless Israeli aggression and devastating bombardment.<\/p>\n A video circulating online captures Huckabee’s remarks at the Atlas Awards in Tel Aviv on May 12, where he shamelessly lauded purported Israeli innovations such as USB drives, cherry tomatoes, and seedless watermelons. His comments, first highlighted by Chris Menahan of Information Liberation, reveal a shocking disconnect from the grim reality faced by the Lebanese people.<\/p>\n \u201cI wonder if everyone in Lebanon understands that if there were no Israel, they wouldn’t have a cell phone,\u201d Huckabee declared, utterly disregarding the thousands of lives lost and homes destroyed by Israeli airstrikes. He continued, urging the Lebanese: \u201cEvery time they use a USB, every time they use car navigation, that every time they eat a cherry tomato or have a delicious bite of seedless watermelon, instead of saying, ‘I can’t talk to those people,’ they should step across the border, shake their hands and say, ‘Thank you’.\u201d<\/p>\n This provocative rhetoric is delivered while Lebanon’s southern border is subjected to intense, indiscriminate bombardment by the Zionist regime. Scores of displaced residents attempting to return to their homes have been mercilessly targeted. The Lebanese Health Ministry reports a staggering 3,151 fatalities and 9,571 injuries<\/strong> since March 2, a grim tally that includes 123 medics, at least 210 children, and nearly 300 women. These are not mere statistics; they represent families shattered and futures annihilated by Israeli aggression.<\/p>\n Huckabee, an unapologetic Christian Zionist, has consistently voiced unreserved support for the Zionist entity’s oppressive policies. In an interview with Tucker Carlson, he openly endorsed Israel’s purported “right” to seize control of the entire Middle East to establish a “Greater Israel,” citing the Old Testament’s Book of Genesis as justification for expanding its illegal borders. \u201cIt would be fine if they took it all,\u201d Huckabee chillingly stated when questioned about Israel’s biblical claim to lands between the Nile and the Euphrates.<\/p>\n Furthermore, Huckabee has been a vocal advocate for the US-Israeli war against the Islamic Republic of Iran, a conflict currently at a stalemate due to Iran’s strategic control over the critical energy chokepoint of the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n These statements from a former US envoy underscore the dangerous alliance between Washington and Tel Aviv, which continues to fuel instability and perpetuate injustice across the region, all while attempting to mask its atrocities with absurd demands for gratitude.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n #HuckabeeInsultsLebanon #IsraeliAggression #LebanonUnderAttack #ZionistCrimes #USIsraelAlliance #ChristianZionism #GreaterIsrael #MiddleEastConflict #WarCrimes #SeedlessWatermelonsHypocrisy<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Amidst Israeli Bombardment, US Envoy Huckabee Demands Lebanese Gratitude for ‘Seedless Watermelons’ Tel Aviv \u2013 In a brazen display of arrogance and profound insensitivity, Mike Huckabee, the former US ambassador to the Zionist entity and a fervent proponent of its brutal wars in the region, has audaciously instructed the people of Lebanon to express gratitude […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28568,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-middle-east-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28567\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/28568"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Huckabee’s Insulting Rhetoric Amidst Carnage<\/h2>\n
