The Head of the General Authority of Civil Affairs and Fatah Central Committee member, Minister Hussein AlSheikh, responded to Pompeo in a tweet: “7 million Palestinians live on this land, in addition to 7 million others who were expelled. They have never expelled anyone to be here, they inherited the land from their fathers and grandfathers.”
AlSheikh’s statement came in response to former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s claim that “Israel is not an apartheid country and it is not an occupying country.”
