The idea of carving up the Promised Land for the sake of appeasing globalist demands is not only biblically wrong, it is strategically disastrous. U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee took a bold stand recently by turning the spotlight back on France, a nation that has long pushed for the creation of a Palestinian state while enjoying the safety and distance of its European perch.
During an interview with Fox News, Huckabee flipped the narrative on its head. “If France is really so determined to see a Palestinian state, I have a suggestion for them,” he said. “Carve out a piece of the French Riviera and create a Palestinian state. They are welcome to do that, but they are not welcome to impose that kind of pressure on a sovereign nation.” His comment was met with fury from the French, but the message was crystal clear.
“I find it revolting that they think they have the right to do such a thing,” Huckabee continued.

This moment caught the attention of Pastor James Kaddis, who addressed the matter directly in a recent video. Kaddis applauded Huckabee’s boldness and criticized the hypocrisy of the international community. “The two-state delusion is exactly that. It is a delusion. There is no context in which a two-state solution works in Israel, especially when the proposed second state is a state that desires the annihilation of the main state.”
Kaddis called out the absurdity of France’s position, especially in the wake of the October 7, Hamas attacks. “France has no business opening their big mouths and actually making any kind of assertion that there should be a Palestinian state in Israel when in reality the people that are saying they supposedly want a Palestinian state… are the same people who terrorized thousands of Israelis.”
President Emmanuel Macron of France did not stop there. He declared that the creation of a Palestinian state was not only a moral duty but a political necessity.
Kaddis fired back, “Baloney! First of all, identify for me Mr. Macron where the morals are. You yourself have zero morals. You have no idea what morality even is.”
Even Germany joined the chorus, drawing the sharpest rebuke from Kaddis. “Germany of all places and all people has no right to tell the Jews what they should do after what they put the Jews through. Come on, let’s really think this through for just one second.”
When European leaders stand shoulder to shoulder, pushing for sanctions and condemnation of Israel, it is no longer a diplomatic discussion. It is a spiritual rebellion against God’s covenant. As Kaddis reminded viewers through the words of Zechariah 12, “And it will be on that day that I will set Jerusalem as a weighty stone to all the peoples. All who carry it will surely gash themselves, and all the nations of the land will be gathered against it.”
That warning is not hyperbole. It is prophecy. “On that day I will seek to destroy all the nations who come out against Jerusalem,” (Zech. 12:9).
The response of Hungary, by contrast, is a welcome reminder that standing with Israel brings clarity and courage. Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s withdrawal from the International Criminal Court in protest of arrest warrants against Israeli leaders and his public support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should serve as a model.

To those tempted to side with the crowd, Kaddis offered a blunt warning. “Mess around and find out.”
Those who bless Israel will be blessed. Those who curse her will face consequences beyond diplomacy. As Huckabee made clear, and Scripture affirms, there is only one rightful owner of the Promised Land. No international summit can override what God has declared.
Let the nations take note.
