Hikind & Huckabee to Travel to Israel
Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) has announced he will travel with former Arkansas Republican Governor Mike Huckabee to Israel next week for a three-day trip to demonstrate their support for a united Jerusalem and their belief that Jews have the right to live anywhere, including Judea and Samaria.Huckabee, who once said he supports the notion of a Palestinian state in Egypt or Saudi Arabia, has long been a vocal proponent of Israel, and of Jews’ right to reside anywhere within the Jewish state.

“I am thrilled to be accompanying the Governor on this politically significant and extremely important trip,” Hikind said. “His presence will certainly strengthen the residents who are facing the possibility of eviction due to President Obama’s incessant pressure on the Israeli government to dismantle Jewish settlements.”
 
Hikind and Huckabee will be joining Dr. Joseph Frager, Chairman of American Friends of Ateret Cohanim and the facilitator of this trip, as well as Mr. Rubin Margules, Zionist Organization of America Brooklyn Regional President. The itinerary includes visits to Jerusalem’s Old City, Ma’aleh Adumim, and Hebron, among other locations.

Hikind is in the process of rolling out a major campaign to bring thousands of American Jews to Judea and Samaria in mid-November to show support to the affected settlers.

Isn't Dov supposed to an influential Democrat? Why is he palling with a big-time loser? This is a "preaching to the choir" trip. Dov should be banging on the white house door accompanied by serious g'virim. He should take Chuck & Joe (Biden) on this trip. This is gratuitous showboating (like many of Dov's trips). Doesn't do a thing for Clal or Eretz Yisroel.


2. your'e wrong!

Huckabee may be the next president. It will be great having another 'ohev yisroel' back in the white house. Down with Obama & his healthcare plan!! Moshiach NOW!!

Joe & Diana Korman
This is wonderful. We also support Israel and their right to Jerusalem and all of Judea and Samaria and for Jews to live and build anywhere in Israel--it is their land and their nation.


5. Dov is the מאן!
וכן יראו וכן יעשו
Right now the אידן in ארץ ישראל need all the support they could get.


6. Israel

Someone better show Mr. Obama the scriptures concerning Israel. Especially the ones that tell what happens to a nation that does what he is doing.


7. I support

I do not wish the land of Israel to be divided. It will bring wrath of God against nations who force Israel to do this.. I know that time of Jacob's trouble is coming soon..

Don Hollyfield
Thank God Mr. Hikind and Mr. Huckabee and the others that are standing for Israel. Israel has bent over backwards for peace. There is not a nation on earth who would deal so kind to the people that want them all gone.I stand with you and my prayers are for your God to be with you and for your peace and safety. Your friend Don
