The US is expected to announce sanctions against IDF unit for human rights abuses
Jerusalem Post ^ | 4/20/24 | Barak Ravid

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is expected to announce sanctions against the IDF’s Netzah Yehuda Battalion in the next few days, according to three American sources.

The sanctions are a result of human rights violations against Palestinians in the West Bank.

This will be the first time that the United States government has imposed sanctions on an Israeli military unit for its activities in the West Bank. The sources stated that the American sanctions will prohibit the transfer of US military aid to the Netzah Yehuda Battalion, will prevent its soldiers and officers from taking part in training with the United States military, and will prevent the soldiers from this unit from participating in activities that receive American funding.

RE: Is Joe Biden looking for votes in Michigan you bet he is.

Biden will walk over any number of bodies and step on faces on the way to grabbing more votes.
If a major terrorist incident in the US soon is shown to be from Arabs here then he will switch sides again.

Tying Israel’s hands.

At the same time, they are sending $9 billion to Hamas.

So - when have you proposed sanctions against the terrorists - or do you propose Israel just stops going after them until all the dead “hostages” are released? And let’s not forget - over 7 % of the “innocent Palestinians” are rooting for Hamas...

Typical Biden — focus on small groups of Jews rather than entire abusing governments, such as Brazil, Scotland, China, and Canada.
