Haitham Taysir, a U.S. citizen, was assaulted on Thursday "while working in his family's olive groves," The Vulnerable People Project reported. Huckabee, the chief diplomatic representative in Israel whose top responsibilities include protecting U.S. citizens, has condemned Israeli settler violence in the past. He has also, however, ignored violent attacks on Americans in Israel. "An American citizen, Haytham Taysir, was just severely beaten by settlers in his olive groves in Burqa, Ramallah," wrote Nathaniel in a social media post on X. "[Huckabee], how's that crackdown on settler terrorists going?" Nathaniel, who rushed to Levine's aid shortly after the attack, provided additional details on the incident. "The [Israel Defense Forces] provided cover, with tear gas and machine guns, while the settlers beat Washington Post journalist Heidi Levine nearly to death," Nathaniel wrote. "Then the IDF shot a Palestinian bystander, and aimed their guns and shoved the paramedics who were trying to treat him. All of this [is] documented."
