The 'Reverend' Mike Huckabee, a dough-faced preacher with a Southern drawl, grinning like a Cheshire cat as he pulls the strings of prophecy and power over the smoking, crackling heart of the Middle East. You can almost see him standing on the edge of the Dead Sea, arms spread wide, summoning his god to hammer out justice like fire across the Palestinian homelands. But look closer—those are no angel wings on his back. That zeal of his is half-baked, half-politics, half-apocalypse, and all business. Huckabee isn't just blowing hot air about Zionism for his evangelical base; this is a man who's truly bent on fueling Israel's racist, supremacist ambitions by any means necessary. The scary part? He'll bulldoze anything in the way, the entire tinderbox of the Middle East be damned.
Huckabee is dangerous because he's no mere tourist or sympathizer. He's all-in—a hardcore Zionist with the nuclear button of American evangelical power backing him up. To Huckabee, Israel is more than a nation. It's a divine mandate, a flaming roadmap to the end times. He's not in it for diplomacy or peace treaties. He's not there to shake hands in Jerusalem or pat a rabbi on the back with a hearty "shalom." No, he's there to lay claim to every stone, every inch of soil. And, of course, when you push a religious vision that sees the world as split between those with the "true faith" and everyone else, compromise is a dirty word. There's no middle ground, only holy ground.
For Huckabee, Israel's fate isn't just about Jews in a homeland—it's about setting the stage for the end of days. And he'll make sure that we're all along for the ride. Hopefully, when he goes low the rest of us will go high.
This is the guy who thinks the battle of Armageddon is a step up, a means to a glorious end. He'd throw every indigenous Palestinian out of their homelands if he could, clearing the field for his self-imagined God's version of the so-called 'chosen people'. He sees himself as a righteous warrior, and when the men pulling levers of nuclear power believe he's ordained by divine command, well, buckle up. That is the danger of Mike Huckabee's Zionism. It's a holy, if not evil, crusade dressed up as foreign policy, and that's a flame that'll set the whole world ablaze.
