US support for Israeli settlements advances peace with Palestinians: Pompeo
JERUSALEM – US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Wednesday that Washington’s backing for Israel’s settlements in the occupied West Bank will advance Israeli-Palestinian peace, angering Palestinian leaders who seek the territory for a state.
But the move delighted Israel and provides important US support amid a potential International Criminal Court inquiry into alleged war crimes in Palestinian areas, including the West Bank. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the Trump administration’s backing was a “proper answer to the decision by the ICC in the Hague to investigate Israel’s actions in Judea and Samaria”, referring to the West Bank.
“The ‘Pompeo doctrine’ regarding the status of the settlements simply states that we are not foreigners in our homeland,” Netanyahu told the conference, hosted by the Kohelet Policy Forum, a Jerusalem think-tank.
