Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced in April that a town would be named after Trump, which some locals opposed.
“The decision by the president on Syria in no way changes anything that this administration is working on alongside Israel,” Pompeo said.
“I told Bibi, you know we give Israel 4.5 billion dollars a year. And they are doing very well at defending themselves,” the president said.

Trump made a major policy decision that will primarily benefit Iran, Turkey, Russia and perhaps Islamic State — and the worries don’t end there.
Netanyahu: “We will continue to take very strong action against Iran’s attempts to entrench itself in Syria.”
“We have defeated ISIS in Syria, my only reason for being there during the Trump Presidency,” Trump tweeted.
“If this resolution ever made sense, it surely does not today. The resolution is plainly biased against Israel,” Nikki Haley said.
