Biden sanctions Israeli settlers over West Bank violence
bbc.com
He signed an executive order on Thursday, saying violence had reached "intolerable levels".
The sanctions will block the individuals from accessing all US property and other assets.
Violence in the West Bank has spiked since Hamas's 7 October attack on Israel.

"The indivuals". Four. Four guys. That's all. Of all the Israeli illegal settlers, a whole total of FOUR are getting banned from buying US properties...which I doubt they wanted to, anyway.
A reminder that all Israeli settlements are illegal.
thanks for the clarification as my country is banned from clicking on that link and I'm too lazy to shit my pants on another website.
Even if it's just lip service to get votes from the left, I'm happy to see the narrative manifesting itself in the white house. they obviously know that voters want.
unfortunately by the time any serious policy would be enacted, Palestine will be gone.
He has Michigan in the bag now. All those Arabs can see how strong this man is.
"How dare you do something instead of doing everything!"
Four people is not doing something. Four people is doing the smallest possible amount so that cheerleaders like yourself can say "Hey, they're trying to do something" to Muslim-Americans in Michigan.
It's transparent and doesn't even do that, though.
All of these things are vastly more complicated than it appears on the surface - to say that they shouldn't do a thing because they should do another thing is not productive, hey lets just do nothing and be mad about it on the internet guys.
And what does anything have to do with Michigan? Are you a real person?
Yes, I am a real person. Demographic shifts, which are very well known to every political person, have made Muslim Americans a required component of a democratic win in most of the mid west swing states, but especially Michigan.
The Democratic party is starting to freak out because Biden's explicit backing of a genocide has dropped his support among Muslim Americans from 60-65% into the single digits.
The Electoral map for a Democratic win without the Midwest Muslim American vote is so unrealistic as to be fantasy.
This is why they are doing this. It's a throwaway token gesture. And the people it's supposed to appease know it too.
A group of Muslim Democrats from Michigan refused to meet with a Biden campaign representative recently.
Trump's also pulled ahead in the head to head polling over it.
This is what shooting yourself in the face to protect votes in deep blue states looks like.
Honestly, if he did nothing it would be a huge improvement. Instead, he's proactively sponsoring the genocide with his blank-check policy on military backing and endless exports of the latest in mass mutilation technologies into the hands of known killers.
When you've outflanked Ronald Reagan to the right, because you cannot conceive of curbing the flow of tanks, bombs, and other killing machines into the country, maybe there's a legitimate reason you're being criticized?
I mean, when they can steal homes for free.
