Jewish settlements not illegal, Pompeo announces
in historic US policy shift
By ICH and Agencies
November 18, 2019 "Information
Clearing House" - The Trump
administration announced on Monday that it does not
view Israeli settlements in the West Bank as
illegal.
US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman said that the
announcement Monday could actually advance peace
between Israel and the Palestinians.
The US policy, Pompeo said, was “based on the unique
facts, history and circumstances presented by the
establishment of civilian settlements in the West
Bank.”
The move is likely
to be welcomed by right-wing Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu and anger the Palestinians, as
well as other countries seeking to resolve the
Middle East conflict.
