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Donald Trump rescinded sanctions imposed by the Biden administration on Israeli settler groups and individuals accused of violence against Palestinians in the West Bank.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

    The only real way to curb settlers violence and support a two state solution is no more weapon at all to israel and global sanctions on the israeli state itself. Something the two genocidal parties would never do

      That would be nice. But one party’s voters think that Arabs deserve no quarter. The other party’s voters are somewhat split and nuanced on the issue. So if you want only zero funding for Israel, or no vote, you’re going to get the party who believes in no mercy, kill all Muslims, and annex all of Palestinian lands yesterday.

      Give them both the bomb. They’ll either blow themselves up, or MAD themselves into peace.

          Point to me saying I do. Show me exactly when and where I made that statement.

          Edit. Look at that, not one person is able to do it.

              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
