Great, now do the twelve UNRWA employees that were directly involved in the attacks on October 7th.
Good.
This is a good first step.
I imagine the one thing any sitting president hopes to avoid in an election year has to be a war in the middle east. At this point the White House probably have math wizards trying to game out which course of action will loose Biden the least votes in the most crucial battleground states. Also wouldn’t be surprised if Netanyahu manages to drag this out to get a republican back in office (and avoid bribery charges).
It shouldn’t just be “West Bank Settlers that have attacked Palestinians”… it should be “ALL West Bank Settlers” period.
There is zero Palestinian that has been compensated, much less fair-market compensated for lands stolen from them in the West Bank by thieves protected by Netanyahu’s far-right racist coalition
“President Biden signed an executive order on Thursday that imposes sanctions on four West Bank settlers who have committed violence against Palestinians. **The order marks the most significant action Biden has taken against Israelis amid criticism over U.S. backing for Israel’s war in Gaza**.”
That really throws into relief just how little Biden has actually done, if the most significant action is “slap the wrists of four private citizens who committed terrorism.”
This seems fairly mild. Give it a few weeks and all the UNRWA funding will be back.
Sanction the Israeli government they are the ones who back and allow the settlers to spread.
You have to sanction Israel and condemn Netanyahu’s actions as genocide Joe, *now*, or you and your party will *never* have my vote ever again, for the rest of my entire life. That’s a hard promise.
“Acts of genocide may have occurred” is the exact same language that Clinton used to avoid taking action to stop the Rwandan genocide. That’s a historical term of art that’s admits guilt. Clinton called it the “biggest failure of his Presidency.” If the DNC won’t learn from its own mistakes, the DNC is worthless.
**Gaza is your Rwanda, Joe.** These dead kids are now on your hands as you continue to drag this out.
Will the far-left assholes calling him Genocide Joe see this?
Boy, “sanction” is an interesting choice of words for this one.
/’saNG(k)SH(e)n/
1. give official permission or approval for (an action)
2. impose a penalty on
While funding the army that is enforcing the illegal settlements.
Not enough! We need to sanction Israel as a whole until they remove all their settlers.
Way too little way too late. Doing this ahead of his Michigan visit. WEAK
Where is the executive order sanctioning Gaza residents aiding and/ or participating in Hamas crimes ?
That should be about half of the Gaza strip.
Fucking finally
Guys, it’s 4 settlers.
4
Calm down.
*sanctioned exactly 4 settlers
Lol can’t wait for all the children to still swear off voting for him.
Can’t wait for Pelosi to whine about Biden being a Russian plant.
Zionism is terrorism and until Biden actually does something to keep Israel in check, they will continue killing innocent women and children.
4 of them? Sheesh.
So after tens of thousands are killed in Gaza, the best Biden can do is to sanction…. 4 individuals? That’s the best he can do? And somehow people think this is a step in the right direction, barely a few weeks after Biden bypassed Congress on weapons sales to Israel thereby authorising further bloodshed? Get a grip.
Do them as a whole.
If only someone did this 30 goddamn years ago.
For every illegal housing unit built in the West Bank the US should cut Israeli funding by $1,000,000. That money could then go to organizations that will help the Palestinian economy.
Sounds like a lot but really is just a drop in the bucket of what Israel receives.
4 of them lol
Please help convince your Gen Z friends and loved ones that “Genocide Joe” is a stupid nickname and American presidents have to live in the real world.
Oh and Gen Z is going to be a LOT worse off with Trump in office.
Duh
The president has to go through more hoops to punish four Israeli colonists than he has to for dropping bombs on Yemen.

There is a lot of irony in this
