US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee commended Israeli President Isaac Herzog for his letter condemning extremist violence in Judea and Samaria.

"Great message from Israeli President Isaac Herzog about violence in Judea and Samaria," Huckabee wrote.

He added: "Attributed to 'settlers, ' but these criminal acts are NOT by settlers. They're UNSETTLERS. I know many settlers-good, decent people. Those who steal, vandalize, & injure others are terrorists."
