  1. > The Biden administration considered sanctioning ultranationalist Ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, but ultimately decided not to do it for now & focus on settlers who perpetrated attacks against Palestinians

    Kind of wish he did. They are both massively bigoted lunatics who have absolutely no business being in any Western like democracy. And yet Smotrich writes the country’s budget (he blocked tax funds to the West Bank for a few months from Palestinian imports/exports even though both Shin Bet and Biden said it was bad policy) and Ben Gvir has major influence over Israel’s police. Also, yet both of them are in the national security cabinet.

    Should also sanction Smotrich’s recent replacement in the Parliament. Zvi Sukkot was deemed too extreme by the IDF and has been arrested multiple times under suspicion of committing West Bank violence such as an attempt to burn down a Mosque and another where Palestinian cars were torched. And guess what? He’s the head of the West Bank committee in the Parliament.

  5. Well, I guess its something. Its a little something, but its something.

  8. Sanction ben gvir and smotrich next. They are encouraging this and are ministers in the Israeli coalition. They need to get their comuppence.

  10. The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office said Biden’s executive order is not needed.
    “The vast majority of settlers are law-abiding citizens and many of them are fighting these days to protect Israel. Israel is taking action against people who break the law everywhere and therefore there is no place for unusual measures in this regard,” it said.

    That disgusting bullshit quote shows exactly why Biden’s order is needed, and thank god he’s taking action.

  11. Good job Joe. Next force Israel to forcefully pull out all settlers out of Westbank. No matter if they are violent or not, its not their land.

  12. Should target all of them. So long as the settlers are there there will be no lasting peace.

  14. I’m about as pro Israel as it gets, and I think we need more of this. Way more.

  15. GOOD. As a Jew, those settler assholes are pieces of shit. I hope they lose EVERYTHING in the future peace process

  16. As an Israeli, fuck these guys. They should be arrested and treated as what they are, terrorists.

    The majority in Israel still believes that, even though our unpopular extremist government would make it appear otherwise. 

  17. good.

    israeli settlers are a small part of the population (about 6%), and the radical settlers (the violent ones) are a small minority out of them. as an israeli, they don’t represent israel and have barely no interaction with the vast majority of the israeli society (most israelis will never have a reason to steo foot into the west bank)

  18. Biden doing more for long-term peace and de-escalation than Netanyahu 

  20. I’m Israeli. Can they please sanction Ben Gvir and Smotrich next?

  21. All settlers should be banned the US recognises it as illegal.

  22. > Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich called what he described as a “settler violence campaign” an “antisemitic lie.”

    > Smotrich added that he will continue to work to strengthen Israeli settlements. “If the price is U.S. sanctions against me – so be it,” he said.

    I fucking hate Israel.

  23. those settlers are awful

    but this is nothing more than grandstanding before Biden visits Michigan which has a huge Arab population lol

    does anyone think someone settling there is going to come to the US

  24. I get that he wants to play both sides, but sanctioning foreign individuals seems both difficult and a violation of due process. 

  28. A good man. No one of course appreciates a centrist but we centrists certainly do.

  29. Israel has a right to defend itself
    Israel has to prove its taking steps to avoid a genocide

    Israel has a right to exist as a nation
    Israel doesn’t have a right to steal land from Palestine

    Palestine has a right to live peacefully
    Palestine forgoes that right when it harbours terrorists and assists in attacking Israel

    Sounds about right?

  30. Waiting to take action until 2024 but pulling UNRWA funding first is telling about their intent and priorities

  31. How about all western nations sanction settlers who attack Palestinians as well as people who take land by force from Palestinians. These rules should also apply to Palestinians involved in similar actions against Israel.

  32. Suspend all aid to Israel until they negotiate a permanent two-state solution. Anything else is just making the complete eradication of Palestine slower.

  34. Why not punish all Israeli people collectively for the actions of extremeists?

  35. Settler sewage has been getting pumped into Palestinian water supplies for years
