The sanctions have infuriated Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who characterized them as a draconian obstruction of Israeli sovereignty. In response, the far-right lawmaker threatened to take steps in his capacity as head of the treasury that would significantly impede the Palestinian economy, the Israeli official added, confirming a Thursday report in the Israel Hayom daily.

Ostensibly wary of such retaliatory actions, the US administration agreed to send a letter to the Finance Ministry clarifying that the sanctions were not intended to cut off those targeted from the entirety of their assets.

    Don’t think he’s compromised, it’s just a love of their dream/zionism

      Those downvotes are confusing. Biden has very openly talked about being a Zionist and how much that matters to him both recently and throughout his political life.

      Are people just now realizing that’s a red flag but haven’t connected the dots ?

        People don’t like when it gets pointed out or when people are critical of Biden
