Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a new interview it is “possible” God sent President Donald Trump to save the Jewish people from Iran.<\/p>\n
“As a Christian, I certainly believe that’s possible,” Pompeo told the\u00a0Christian Broadcasting Network<\/a>\u00a0from Jerusalem when asked if Trump compares to the modern-day Esther, a figure in the Bible who helped save the Jewish people.<\/p>\n “So, we were down in the tunnels where we could see 3,000 years ago, and 2,000 years ago \u2014 if I have the history just right \u2014 to see the remarkable history of the faith in this place and the work that our administration’s done to make sure that this democracy in the Middle East, that this Jewish state remains.”<\/p>\n Pompeo, whose remarks came on the same day Trump said the United States\u00a0should officially recognize<\/a>\u00a0the disputed Golan Heights as part of Israel, added he feels God is playing a role in the matter.<\/p>\n “I am confident that the Lord is at work here,” he said.<\/p>\n
