Huckabee's comments drew swift condemnation from across the region, with U.S. allies expressing discomfort with his remarks.
Senior Trump administration officials have called around to several Arab countries in recent days to mollify their concerns after Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee claimed Israel has a right to control much of the Middle East.

Hi Doc Sarvis:
I finished reading Virginia Roberts Giuffre's book Nobody's Girl; hope you can borrow it from your library.
That book should have taken me two to three days to read, but I had to put it down after every chapter, so it took me almost ten days.
That poor girl never had a chance in life.
BTW: Republican Mike Huckabee may not be alone in his Bronze Age campfire sentiments about Israeli expansion.
This is a bipartisan Congressional junket to Israel circa 2019: www.youtube.com
You get the idea that a Sunni NATO is coming. Already Turkey and Egypt are cozying up to one another. Algeria, Syria and many of the eastern African and gulf states will soon jump aboard. Eventually, Morocco and the UAE will flip. Jordan will be the last.
