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.

    Just to clarify, until the suspension of funding, the US was giving aid.

    Just not to the Palestinian government. It is illegal for a president to give aid directly to a terrorist state.

      Lmaololololololol.

      UNRWA couldn’t get any aid into Gaza. The IDF has been blocking them. Talking about payments to buy food is useless if the food cannot be delivered.

      GTFO here with the third deliberately stupid take I’ve seen you publish today.

        We can agree that the Palestininian’s need food absolutely.

        But blocking an organization.after that organization was involved in.a terror attack seems a bit obvious doesn’t it?

        But let me guess, it’s also Israel’s fault that UNRWA allowed themselves to be infiltrated, isn’t it?

          We cut off UNRWA at the mere accusation they had some employees that were involved, not leadership or the organization at large.

          But we continue to support Israel through what amounts to hundreds of credible accusations and statements by their leadership showing this is on purpose.

          Make that make sense.
