      It wasn’t even random “settlers”

      It was 7 of the most violent despicable ones, and the sanctions did nothing

      But Bibi told Biden to revoke the sanctions, so he did.

      By his own words over decades of political service, Biden has constantly reiterated that he’ll do what Israel asks because as a toddler his dad made him promise.

      It’s fucking insane that everyone just didn’t care over half a century

      If it comes down to Israel or America, Biden will always pick Israel. That’s where his loyalties lie because of a childhood promise a lifetime ago.

      There’s reasons why it took him over 30 years to win his first presidential primary, and this is one of the big ones.

      The word comes from settler colonialism, which means the colonists come steal the land and live on it instead of just enslave the people.

      Somehow people starter using the word “colonialist” instead of “settler” which is weird because settler sounds far too peaceful for these psychopathic Nazi colonists.

      Why are we still referring to these human shit stains as settlers?

      Peas in a pod stick with each other no matter what. US knows a thing or two about wiping out the natives.

        You can blame bibi all you want, this issue predates him. Scapegoating him only enables this problem to continue. Don’t get me wrong he sucks, but removing him will not drastically change the situation.

          “Antisemitism in Germany predated Hitler, scapegoating him only enables the problem to continue,” Nazis in the 40s probably. What a clown thing to say. He is the current tip of the genocidal spear known as Israel. Though I agree with you entirely that removing him won’t change Israel’s genocidal actions. That doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be tried at The Hague and put in prison for life.

          Ah, but shitting on Biden and the US at every opportunity is completely reasonable while talking bad about the guy who is actually pulling the trigger is fucking scapegoating!?

            Did you miss the part where Biden removed the sanctions on those settlers or something? Jesus fuck you people are insufferable.

              I did actually miss that part. Cuz it doesn’t seem to be in this article at all I don’t know where the title comes from.

                It doesn’t seem to be in the article? The article is specifically about the executive branch, led by Biden, removing the sanctions. What else do you want? A signing telegram?

                It’s literally the first fucking sentence.

                The US has dramatically softened the sanctions it imposed on seven violent Israeli settlers by allowing them to use their accounts at Israeli banks

                  And yet that’s nowhere in there. There’s no executive decree no change, no nothing. That’s the first sentence and nothing backs it up in the entire article. In fact the only information the article is that they sent out a letter clarifying questions about the sanctions. There’s nothing in there but actual changes. This is a bogus article from a bogus Source who uses bogus sources.

              No, but the point is your hypocrisy. I never said that lifting the sanctions is right.
              But “Jesus fuck” would it never cross my mind to call the person who is ordering those atrocities in Gaza a scapegoat.

              Edit: Looks like Biden didn’t lift anything.

                He lifted the majority of the sanctions. There’s no impactful sanctions left anymore.

      They’re not all religious nutters. There was just that post the other day from that nerdy genocidal atheist nutter who was very offended about being called religious just because he’s a genocidal settler.

    Most petty useless sanctions ever by Biden

    Instantly removes them when israel tells him to

    What a brave man wagging his finger to israel for a few days.

    Maybe israel can tell Biden to lift his sanctions that are starving Cuba too.

    This title does not seem to match up with a contents of the article. An article whose sources I I somewhat question by the way.

      The title does match. US government enacted sanctions on 7 people that restricted 3 types of financial transactions. Now they have removed the most important of the 3 restrictions.

        No, it doesn’t. They did not ease the sanctions. They clarified what sanctions were already in place. I’m with you, stricter sanctions are needed here, but they did not remove any restrictions because that restriction was not truly in place before.
