(Jerusalem Post) Editorial - President Biden has signed an executive order placing sanctions against violence by Israelis who attack Palestinians in the West Bank, saying it "has reached intolerable levels and constitutes a serious threat to the peace, security, and stability of the West Bank and Gaza, Israel, and the broader Middle East region." The Prime Minister's Office responded that "Israel acts against all violators of the law in all places," and therefore, "there is no place for drastic steps on this matter." Whether or not there is a need for the executive order, the problem with issuing it at this time is that it appears to be a misguided and potentially dangerous attempt to create a moral equivalency between the genocidal atrocities of Hamas and Jewish attacks against Palestinians. The Israelis involved in these acts in the West Bank are a fringe and scattered group accused of violent, but not murderous, incidents that are primarily under investigation. Drawing an equivalency with Hamas terrorism will only embolden Palestinian terrorists to continue their campaign to eliminate Israel.2024-02-05 00:00:00Full Article
