Huckabee blames ‘biblical illiteracy’ for waning support for Israel in US | Benjamin Netanyahu News | Al Jazeera

US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee blames the decline in American support for Israel on ‘biblical illiteracy’. He cites disinformation, foreign propaganda, hatred of those who believe in God, and ignorance of the Bible as key factors. Huckabee denies claims of genocide in Gaza and that Israel is an apartheid state, asserting Americans would view Israel more favorably if they knew the truth. A Pew poll from April shows 65% support among white evangelicals, but 60% of Americans hold unfavorable views of Israel; an AP-NORC poll from July suggests many believe Israel committed genocide, despite many not knowing enough to answer.
