Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee says “America First has never meant America only,” while defending continued conservative support for Israel. Huckabee argues that a lack of understanding of biblical material is contributing to skepticism among some right-wing voices toward Israel. In his remarks, he frames the issue as one of historical and religious context, suggesting that misinterpretations or limited knowledge are driving parts of the debate. The comments are presented as part of Huckabee’s broader effort to reconcile nationalist politics with support for Israel, emphasizing that the U.S. interest in the region can coexist with an “America First” approach. Across the coverage, the central focus remains Huckabee’s warning about “biblical ignorance” and his contention that conservative policy and values should not lead to isolationism or opposition to Israel. The reports do not provide additional policy details or evidence beyond Huckabee’s statements and characterization of the reasons he believes some conservatives question Israel’s role or relevance.
