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Donald Trump rescinded sanctions imposed by the Biden administration on Israeli settler groups and individuals accused of violence against Palestinians in the West Bank.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

    So far Trump got a ceasefire. That is infinitely better for Palestine than anything that Biden did.

      Biden got a ceasefire. The deal went through days before Trump got in. He did fuck all except win, thus creating favorable conditions for Bibi. Read a book

        “Read a book” - sure, let’s read something. How about the fact that Trump’s envoy visited Gaza like 10 days before. How about the fact that Biden did fuckall for the entirety of the time about it. How about the fact that the deal is the exact same as the one that Israel rejected in November.

        But sure, it was Biden (who literally called himself a zionist, who literally promised his daddy to support Israel no matter what), he just really wanted a few more months of genocide before Israel was kindly asked to cut the shit and decided to stop. And he did it on the very last few days of the presidency, just for the memes.

          I don’t think even the most talented surgeon can get your head out of your ass, I’m sorry.

            Alright then point out where I said something untrue. Prove me wrong instead of being obtuse for no reason.

          Let’s read this! Sure seems like Trump’s “envoy” had no business engaging in diplomacy with a foreign power. Not that we’ll ever see his administration punished for anything, given how many of you fuckers seem to crawl out of the woodwork anytime anyone is slightly less than worshipful of Daddy Trump.

            Moving the goalposts now aren’t we? First of all, I’m not a fan of Trump. I just don’t deepthroat Biden just because he has a “D” next to his name. I just give credit where it’s due - orange man got a ceasefire.

              Lol, moving the goalposts? You’re the one who brought up that Trump’s envoy visited Gaza recently. If you’re implying that this contributed to the ceasefire, then they violated the Logan Act.

            Do you have any arguments to show it was Biden or do you just go on what you think happened and ignore anything else? Address what I said in my post, otherwise I’ll just treat you as a weak troll. Hate Trump or not, the reality is he got a ceasefire, not Biden.
