U.S. Senate Confirms Christian Zionist Mike Huckabee as Israel Ambassador
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

French President Emmanuel Macron said in an interview this week France
might soon formally recognize a Palestinian state, with a decision
expected in June.

Meanwhile, the United States Senate on Wednesday confirmed former
Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as U.S. ambassador to Israel. Huckabee
is a far-right Christian Zionist who's openly advocated for Israel's
annexation of Palestinian lands and has said, "There's really no such
thing as a Palestinian."
