President Biden to impose sanctions on violent Israeli settlers in West Bank

U.S. President Biden visits Israel amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas

President Biden issued an executive order on Monday, targeting violent Israeli settlers in the West Bank. The order imposes sanctions on four individuals accused of leading riots against Palestinians, including setting their buildings on fire and assaulting civilians. According to the President, the violence has reached intolerable levels and poses a serious threat to the peace, security, and stability of the West Bank, Gaza, and Israel.

Former UN ambassador and Republican candidate Nikki Haley criticized President Biden's move, claiming that it unfairly focuses on Israeli actions while failing to address the provocations by Iran and Hamas. Haley argued that Israel is a democratic nation with a strong justice system capable of handling such incidents. She further criticized the President for allegedly appeasing the Palestinians while ignoring the true nature of being a friend to Israel.
