President Biden has received a tremendous amount of blowback for siding with Israel over its war with Hamas. Despite decades of U.S. support for the Jewish state, progressive Democrats are outraged that Biden is providing aid—after Israel was hit with a horrific terrorist attack.

This blowback may become so severe, it hurts Biden’s 2024 election chances. Perhaps to win back some anti-Israel progressives, the president plans an executive order that turns on Israel and its citizens.

From Politico:
President Joe Biden is expected to issue an executive order Thursday that aims to punish Israeli settlers who have been attacking Palestinians in the occupied West Bank…

As part of the rollout, the Biden administration will announce it is imposing sanctions on individuals who have engaged in such violence, which has killed or displaced many Palestinians from their lands, the documents say.

At a time when Israel is fighting for its existence, President Biden mysteriously timed an executive order that seemingly shames the nation and its settlers. The Democrat is wading into an issue not directly connected to the U.S. and will sanction Israelis accused of fighting Palestinians in the West Bank.

As you can imagine, Israeli leadership is not at all happy that an American president is trying to interfere over this issue. And one top Israeli is calling out Biden over this move.

From Daily Wire:
Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett slammed the Biden administration on Thursday after President Joe Biden signed an executive order targeting Israeli civilians settling in Judea and Samaria…

“In Israel, we prosecute any violence, any criminal activity. We don’t need any external help on doing it. And I have to say that it’s marginal. What’s called violence of settlers is marginal. We’re talking about a 50 percent decrease year on year.”

Former Prime Minister of Israel, Naftali Bennett, rebuked President Biden for targetting Israeli settlers over conflicts in the West Bank. Bennett explained that the Israeli government prosecutes “any violence.” And he pointed out that what the MSM calls violence is “marginal.”

It appears, because Israel is opposed to these actions, and prosecutes those accused, these incidents are declining “year on year.” Why, then, does Biden think it is appropriate now, to get in the middle of this issue?

His order will reportedly sanction Israelis accused of violence. Meaning, that they will be unable to do business with America and perhaps other allies. This appears to be an unnecessary punishment—but it could be used by Biden to convince progressives he is opposing Israel.

Would Biden interfere in another country’s business, just to help himself politically? I’ll let you answer that question yourself.

Key Takeaways:

• President Biden will sign an order targeting Israeli settlers in the West Bank.
• Former Israel PM Bennett rebuked Biden for getting involved in the issue.
• Bennett explained Israel prosecutes those who commit violence and that incidents have declined year over year.
