Mike Huckabee’s wonderful Queens adventure

Days after making explosive remarks in support of Israel’s case against the Iran nuclear deal, Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee greeted Jewish supporters in the Jamaica Estates home of Karen and Dr. Joe Frager.

The former Arkansas governor was chastised by President Obama for saying that the deal would “basically march [Israelis] to the door of the oven,” but the crowd gahered at Frager's home appeared appreciative that Huckabee had Israel’s back.

“The reason I invoked the language of the Holocaust is because the Iranian government invoked that very language in their threat to destroy Israel and America,” Huckabee said.

Most of those who attended the parlor meeting were from Queens, but some came from elsewhere on Long Island and New Jersey, including a group from Great Neck recruited by activists Dr. Paul and Drora Brody.
