“It is a blessing to be here in Judea and Samaria” ~Mike Pompeo

“May I not be the last Secretary of State to visit this beautiful land,” Pompeo wrote in Psagot winery’s guestbook.

A history making visit to Judea and Samaria by US Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo was made today. This is the first official visit of an American Secretary of State to Judea and Samaria since 1967.

Excerpt from the Binyamin Regional Council official statement:
“We consider this visit to be an important message that sees Binyamin as a valuable and significant region for the State of Israel, which it is no less important to visit than other Israeli sites.We are extremely hopeful that representatives from many governments will follow his {Pomepo’s} example and come to visit in Binyamin, to connect to the history and enjoy the wide range of exciting and moving experiences that this area has to offer.”

Excerpt from Remarks to the Press by Mike Pompeo:
“Today I want to make one announcement with respect to a decision by the State Department that we will regard the global anti-Israel BDS campaign as anti-Semitic. …I want you to know that we will immediately take steps to identify organizations that engage in hateful BDS conduct, and withdraw US government support for such groups.”
