Arab countries slam US ambassador remarks that Israel can take over all Middle East

Several Arab countries, including Palestine, Jordan, and Egypt, have condemned comments made by US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee. In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Huckabee suggested it would be "fine" if Israel took over the entire Middle East, sparking a diplomatic backlash. Jordan's foreign ministry described the remarks as "irresponsible, escalatory and absurd," while Saudi Arabia called them "reckless." The Palestinian foreign ministry stated the comments were an explicit call to violate state sovereignty and supported the displacement of Palestinians.
