Did you hear what former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee recently said?

He wants Palestinians removed from their historic homeland.

Click here to tell him that this amounts to ethnic cleansing.

In comments widely reported in the international media, Huckabee said that Israeli Jews should be able to live anywhere throughout the biblical Land of Israel — an area that includes the West Bank and east Jerusalem.

But what about the Palestinians who already live there?

According to Huckabee:   “There are vast amounts of territory that are in the hands of Muslims, in the hands of Arabs. Maybe the international community can come together and accommodate.”

Many of the Palestinians who live in the West Bank and Gaza were already displaced during the founding of Israel.  Now Mr. Huckabee thinks they should be moved again.

This fits the definition of ethnic cleansing.  Tell Mr. Huckabee that you find his proposals reprehensible.
