"65 progressive, faith, and human-rights groups sent a letter..." How about 65 extremist left-wing, antisemitic and Muslim groups sent a letter? The letter claimed that Huckabee supports "Israel's genocide of Palestinians." That's all you need to know about every one of the groups that endorsed that letter.

I've been waiting for the lawsuits against universities for Title VI violations (denying Jewish students' civil rights) and going after Hamas/Hezbollah/Iran terror financing networks in the US.

Notable that Biden's Justice Department, FBI, Homeland Security, etc. took no action in more than a year. Hopefully this is rectified by Trump.

Huckabee will be a great ambassador to Israel and Masri is already running for cover as result of this very interesting lawsuit

I’ve often wondered how Israel missed Hamas digging all those tunnels, an effort which must have taken a great deal of time, money, equipment and expertise, especially when you just consider the massive scale of that elaborate tunnel network constructed under Gaza. They would have required enormous amounts of concrete, special machinery and equipment, and know-how in order to design and build it.

What better “cover” for such a project could you ask for than a developer who just so happens to have all those necessary elements right at his fingertips.

The fact that Masri is anywhere near the Trump administration is not a good sign at all. Hopefully, the discovery aspect of the case will put an abrupt end to whatever that relationship may be, and Masri will find himself in a cramped 6x6 concrete cell awaiting his death.

On the Huckabee nomination, you write, " .... sent a letter to Democratic Sens. John Thune, James Risch, Jeanne Shaheen, and Chuck Schumer .... ". Thune and Risch are Republicans. Please don't slander them.

Haitham Razek Abd al-Karim Sheikh Khalil

Too many syllables in that name to be afforded life.

More than a decade ago I attended a lecture by a retired IDF General. He was wearing a grandpa cardigan. Not the imposing figure I expected. His opening sentence was this; "How do you know when an Arab is lying? His lips are moving". I think about that every time someone claims to be an innocent just expressing their 1st amendment rights.

Yes, my observation as well. This fella’s name, correctly styles as: “al Masri” means “from Egypt,” or “the Egyptian.” Those who read Hebrew (or transliterated) Haggadot, will recognize the Hebrew cognate: ״מצרים״ - meaning “Egypt.” Arab society was traditionally family, clan and tribe - not 1648 Westphalian nation-state. I recently saw a list of the surnames of Gazan and Yesha Arabs which reflect the origins of their Arab birthplaces - and not a one was “al Filastin.” (I’ll look for the list…)
