(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told visiting U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Thursday: "President Trump...recognized Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and he did so at a time when Iran is trying to use Syria as a platform to attack and destroy Israel. And the message that President Trump has given the world is that America stands by Israel." "We're celebrating Purim, when 2,500 years ago, other Persians, led by Haman, tried to destroy the Jewish people. They failed then; and today, 2,500 years later, again Persians led by Khamenei are trying to destroy the Jewish people and the Jewish state....Thank you, America."
