Huckabee is a longtime friend of the Jewish State and has led dozens of solidarity delegations to the country. He's also a partner with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. 

Former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, who served during Trump's first White House term, is praising the move. 

The nomination is also receiving praise from Iran hawks and other former Trump officials.
