News Alert: Biden to issue executive order targeting violent Israeli settlers in the West Bank

President Joe Biden plans to issue an executive order targeting violent Israeli settlers in the West Bank whom he has said have undermined stability in the area, according to a US official.

The new directive, expected to be announced Thursday, will impose sanctions on several individuals accused of having participated in the violent acts.

Biden has condemned these acts of violence in the past, and the issue is one that the president has personally discussed in recent months with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Can't wait for this clown to be out of office.

Excerpt:

Quote

Western intelligence agencies are aware of and have leaked details that Israel - the country Egypt signed a peace treaty with - is the "enemy" in all of Egypt's war games.

Israel’s past experience with Arab strategic partners such as Iran during the Shah era, and Turkey before the Erdogan regime, leave Israel no choice but to carefully monitor Egypt's buildup. The United States has long turned a blind eye to Iranian smuggling through Egypt to arm, equip, and train Hamas. More worrying to Israel’s military planners has been the United States turning a blind eye to Egypt’s’ clandestine construction of as many as 12 major tunnels under the Suez canal all pointing towards Israel.

Egyptian forces have staged large-scale military training exercises which included simulated operations crossing into the Sinai using these underground tunnels against an “unnamed adversary to the east”(meaning Israel).

Israel can no longer ignore the astounding armament rate of the Egyptian army, which has procured the very best offensive weaponry from the West in recent years. One Israeli military analyst expressed an assessment that leaves no doubt; "One day, all of it will be turned against us."

Egypt has amassed a substantial offensive military capability in recent years that can no longer be ignored by Israel. Although Egypt has a formal peace agreement with Israel, reaffirming Egypt as Israel’s strategic partner should start with the Egyptians shutting down completely the illicit smuggling tunnels between Egypt and the Gaza Strip. This means ending any possibility that Hamas can re-arm and likewise ensure that Hamas leaders use those tunnels as an escape hatch to avoid the consequences of their atrocities on Oct 7.

Should Egypt’s leaders including Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi’s refrain from these necessary actions, the prospect for continued stable relations with Israel would diminish substantially.

Solutions are not that hard to come up with if you're unbiased and have half a brain. It's hard to implement them.

Just jogging your memory. You posted a couple of times that Singapore is "extremely pragmatic" and won't make peace with Israel due to its neighbors. It was in reference to possible 5th Freedom flights on the NYC-TLV route with Singapore Airlines.

Absolute Damning report by Regavim: "Officers by Day, Terrorists by Night"

If you dont have time just read the summary on page 64.
https://www.regavim.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/regavimTerrorReportEng1202.pdf

Key takeaway the PA is basically Hamas-lite and rather than Iran and Qatar funded, its supported by the US and EU (with Israeli consent)
Oslo should have been dismantled long ago - IMO it's still not too late.

I didn't read the article, but based on the tweet this seems to be a major Israeli move to sabotage concessions to Iran.

Abu Ali Express reports various Arab social media accounts thanking Israel for taking this guy out.

Diplomatic crisis with UAE.

Because of day-after negotiations? Or just generally because they’re opposed to the war?
