Huckabee urges Israel to act on settler ‘terrorism,’ warns Iran over nuclear program

US Ambassador Mike Huckabee urged Israel to take "responsible action" against recent West Bank settler attacks in Kusra, which he termed "terrorism." He stated, "Under the US definition of terrorism, when acts are conducted that cause people to change their behavior, and put them in fear for their lives... that's terror." Huckabee also warned Iran that it "will not have" enriched uranium, indicating that a diplomatic solution is preferable to military action. Regarding upcoming Israeli elections, Huckabee noted President Trump's sensitivity and desire not to "tip the scale unfairly." Finally, he reiterated US support for Israel's right to self-defense in Gaza, stating that Israel is not expected to withdraw until Hamas disarms and demilitarizes.
