President-Elect Donald Trump has taken a bold and historic step by appointing former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as U.S. Ambassador to Israel. Huckabee, a seasoned ally and long-standing advocate for Israel, has devoted five decades to building relationships across the nation, visiting over 100 times, and leading countless Christian groups on tours to deepen their appreciation for Israel’s history, culture, and challenges.
