Former US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee attributed the declining public support for Israel in the United States to a lack of "biblical literacy," disinformation, and hostility toward people who believe in God. In an interview with NewsNation, Huckabee identified "three sources" behind the erosion of support for Israel: foreign propaganda and disinformation, hatred of those who believe in God, and a lack of knowledge about the Bible.
He suggested that these factors combined to create a desire to criticize Israel and blame it for everything. Huckabee also dismissed claims of genocide in Gaza and the characterization of Israel as an apartheid state, asserting that Americans would have a more favorable view of Israel if they were to "look at the truth."
