01 · THE DISPATCH

Mark Levin, a prominent conservative commentator and host on Fox News, toured the Binyamin Regional Council in Judea and Samaria on Thursday alongside council head Israel Gantz. According to Ariel Kahana (Israel Hayom), the delegation visited the council's emergency command center, local farms, and the archaeological site of ancient Shiloh.

Levin praised the communities and the landscape, calling the visit 'amazing' and urging Americans to see the reality on the ground. 'Many in the United States receive a distorted picture of this place,' Levin said. 'In practice, you meet amazing people here – farmers, families, thriving communities.' He emphasized that Judea and Samaria are 'the birthplace of Judaism and Christianity' and rejected the term 'West Bank,' describing the area as 'the eastern bank of the State of Israel.' Levin also noted what he described as ongoing Palestinian construction aimed at creating a territorial continuity that would separate Israeli settlements from major transportation routes.

The visit underscores ongoing advocacy by Israeli officials and American conservative figures to reframe international perceptions of the region. No further details on Levin's itinerary or any official meetings were provided.
