Huckabee the favorite to win the Adelson primary?

Keep in mind, in the past Huckabee has said that a Palestinian state in the West Bank is "unrealistic", and that "there's no such thing as a Palestinian":

Given that, since this appears to be Adelson's top issue, Huck would have the inside track to winning his favor....should he run.

[Mr. Morden]

Again to bring up Huckabee's rather extreme views on Israel/Palestine, as noted in that thread I linked to, here's yet another gem from Huck on the topic, that could potentially win him favor from Adelson, if Adelson is really this far out on the issue as well:

*bump*

Huck is bringing up this theme again, now that he's on another trip to Israel.  He's saying that Israelis should be able to build anywhere they want in East Jerusalem, as "God gave them" the land:

And here:

he calls land for peace an "unrealistic, unworkable and unreachable goal."

This also raises the interesting question of how many of the 2016 GOP candidates would answer "yes" to the question "Do you support a two-state solution to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict?"

[Mr. Morden]

So Huckabee has the same position as most American politicians on Israel/Palestine?

Most American politicians don't say "there's no such thing as a Palestinian", and openly advocate the removal of Palestinians from the West Bank to be resettled elsewhere.
