The backlash against U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee's remarks has intensified following his interview on Tucker Carlson's show, where he claimed that Israel has a biblical right to land covering territory between Egypt and Iraq. Huckabee stated, 'it would be fine if [Israel] took it all,' a comment that has drawn condemnation from a coalition of 14 Arab and Muslim-majority nations, including Pakistan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, who labeled his remarks as 'dangerous and inflammatory.' This coalition's joint statement emphasized that Israel holds no divine sovereignty and warned that such expansionist narratives threaten regional stability. Additionally, the foreign ministers of Brazil, France, Spain, Turkey, and other nations condemned recent Israeli decisions that they claim introduce sweeping extensions to unlawful Israeli control over the West Bank, describing them as 'a flagrant violation of international law' and a step towards 'unacceptable de facto annexation' (Nukta Latest, February 24, 2026).
