Summary

Donald Trump rescinded sanctions imposed by the Biden administration on Israeli settler groups and individuals accused of violence against Palestinians in the West Bank.

The sanctions, established under Executive Order 14115 in 2024, targeted those “undermining peace, security, and stability” and froze U.S. assets of sanctioned individuals.

This marks a reversal of Biden’s policy aimed at curbing settler violence and supporting a two-state solution.

Trump’s decision aligns with his previous support for Israeli settlements, which most countries consider illegal under international law.

    Yes. You are right on both accounts.
    That in no way means I have any “solution of keeping supporting Israel”. Don’t put words in my mouth just because it’s the only issue you care about.

      Don’t make fun of a comment advovating for imposing real pressure on Israel if you don’t want to be accused to supporting it. It is funny how you are complaining about putting words to your mouth while you accusing me of only caring about israeli occupation of palestine and the genocide issue when there is literaly zero indication about it
