The Biden administration is admitting Israel into a select group of countries whose citizens are allowed to travel to the United States without getting a visa in advance.
The decision announced Wednesday comes despite Washington’s concerns about the Israeli government’s treatment of Palestinian Americans and marks a major accomplishment for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has sparred frequently with the Biden administration.
Under the waiver program, Israelis will be able to travel to the U.S. for business or leisure purposes for up to 90 days without a visa simply by registering with the Electronic System for Travel Authorization. But even if they are authorized to travel under that system, U.S. officials at the airport can still bar them from entering the country.
No thanks, they can stay in the west bank. We dont owe anything to the Palestinians. We already have an illegal immigration problem.
Yes! All those Israelis illegally seizing Palestinians’ homes and taking their land! Thank you!
Fuck the Palestinians. You know nothing about history. I repeat what i said, WE OWE THEM NOTHING.
And does the world owe the Israelis, exactly? Regarding history, there are many episodes in recent history that I will never forget, such as this one: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jul/20/israelis-cheer-gaza-bombing
Doesn’t sound like you know much about it either
