Former Arkansas Governor, Mike Huckabee often says nice things about Israel on American television. Many religious Jews consider him a friend of the Jewish people. They celebrate his arrival in Israel with great fanfare whenever he visits. They even take selfies with him and nosh on kosher sushi at boutique wine festivals.
But there is another side of Mike Huckabee. He is a devout evangelical, with a long history of advocating the conversion of Jews to Christianity. The following presentation addresses a simple question: Is Mike Huckabee truly our friend? Or is he a foe?
Mike Huckabee & “One For Israel”
One For Israel has a clear missionary agenda. They don’t mince words. Mike Huckabee proudly endorses them.
These videos & screenshots have been shared widely with Jews in Israel, particularly among religious Jews who celebrate Huckabee whenever he visits. Those who support Huckabee aren't naive. There are many reasons for their behavior. Yet how can any decent Jew rationalize their association with someone who has such an insidious agenda against our people.

Jews For Huckabee
Don't let Mike Huckabee charm you with nice talking points about Jews or Israel. To truly understand him, one has to listen to what he says when in the company of HIS friends.
"The best thing to happen for Israel would be that the gospel would take hold in Israelis and in Arabs, and that the common ground to bring peace in the Middle East, would not be something that diplomats would have a clue about, it would be something that would happen not at a peace table, but rather at the foot of the cross."- Mike Huckabee
Mike Huckabee’s evangelical agenda is well documented. The evidence is disturbing. In light of this, how can any Jew continue to associate with him? Isn’t it time for Jews to end these unhealthy relationships with open missionaries which endanger the spiritual integrity of Am Yisrael?
We Jew don’t need Esau’s material goods, nor do we need their political alliances. We survived 2000 years without them. Correction: We survived 2000 years DESPITE them. Despite their attempts to murder and maim us, we resisted their efforts to bring us to the cross. We prevailed when they cane at us with fire and swords, shall we falter and grab their hands in friendship, just because they smile at us today. Listen to what they say when in the company of friends.
