U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee addressed the relationship between Washington and Jerusalem, saying, "When people ask, 'Is it possible that the U.S. and Israel will split and no longer enjoy this extraordinary partnership?' I say, 'No. I hope we'll never be foolish enough to do that. We will continue to be partners as long as we both exist.'" He made these remarks at an Israeli-American Council (IAC) event marking the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence. The ambassador added: "It's like a marriage. If we separate, neither country will be able to afford to pay alimony."
