Pompeo, in testimony to Senate, refuses to back two-state solution
[IsraelTimes] US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Tuesday refused to reaffirm American support for a Paleostinian state after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to extend Israeli illusory sovereignty over West Bank settlements.
Testifying before a Senate subcommittee just as Israel wrapped up tight elections, Pompeo declined to respond when Democrats asked him to back a two-state solution.
"Ultimately, the Israelis and Paleostinians will decide how to resolve this," Pompeo replied.
