United States holds firm to Its critique of Israeli settlements

In response to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saying that the U.S. critique of Israeli settlements is ‘un-American,’ the U.S. said, ?‘American values are why this country’s support for Israel has been unwavering.’ The White House press secretary Josh Earnest said on Monday that Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s comments that it was ‘un-American’ for the U.S. to disagree with Israeli settlement plans were misguided.
