Peloni: Please read this response by Amishav Mellet to being labeled as a terrorist in a X post by Ambassador Mike Huckabee. Mellet is the brother of Benayahu Mellet HY”D who was recently murdered in a terror attack while defending a group of hikers and he is currently a member of a farm near where Huckabee uploaded a scathing one-sided tweet over the weekend.

An Open Letter to Ambassador Huckabee from the ‘Dangerous and Threating Settlers’
Israpundit is entirely dependent on readers support. Please help me continue educating people with the truth about what is going on in Israel and around the world.


The time has come. The Hon. Mike Huckabee should consider higher goals in accord with his esteemed position: 1. Reject Muslims as ‘Palestinians’ – Rome applied this name to Judea, 600 years before Islam was born. 2. Reject ‘West Bank’ – Jesus was not born in ‘Islamic’ Bethlehem; Jordan was the 2-state. Think Prophet Samuel’s challenge to Esther who took the Godly plunge: If not you then who? If not now then when? To be an Ambassador to Israel at this time is a Godly employ – it’s not for show.
@Josephus Did Trump effectively neutralize him by appointing him ambassador?

What a shame! We thought he was a friend of Israel. Perhaps he should lose his credibility as ambassador in Israel. That would create an international event that everyone would watch.
Probably, Trump should be speaking to him and performing damage control. However, Trump’s performance in the current presidency has left a lot to be desired, including how he deals with allies. Of course, that may be for show, but in that case, who is he trying to impress?
Not a good moment for this that popped up when I went to thie AllIIsraelnews site:
He was my first choice in 2016, but first the Christian persecution hoax, now the settler violence hoax? What’s next? He is way too gullible, easily manipulated, and unreliable an ally.
Is it possible that he is so gullible and easily manipulated? I would prefer to doubt that, but as I already said above, who is he trying to impress? Your suggestion would explain it, but not why he hasn’t been replaced.
