President Joe Biden is reportedly preparing to implement a policy that could severely hurt Israeli businesses by forcing Jewish-made products from Judea and Samaria to be labeled in a way that would enable boycotts. This move is just the latest in a series of anti-Israel actions from the Biden administration, and it has many Americans outraged.
The Financial Times reported that the Biden administration is planning to reverse a policy enacted by President Trump, which required goods made in Judea and Samaria to be labeled as “Made in Israel.” This change would put pressure on Israel to comply with the demands of Palestine and the international community, and it could potentially damage the Israeli economy.
This move is being seen as a clear endorsement of the global anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaign, which aims to delegitimize and destroy the state of Israel. The fact that the Biden administration is actively supporting a movement that promotes discrimination and hatred toward Jews is deeply concerning.
It is especially alarming that this policy comes just weeks after the Biden administration refused to block a UN resolution calling for a ceasefire in Israel’s war against Hamas terrorists, who have killed and injured thousands of innocent people, including Americans. This refusal to support Israel in its fight against terrorism is a slap in the face to our closest ally in the Middle East.
Many conservatives have expressed outrage over this potential move, with some calling it “evil” and “shocking.” They are also pointing out the hypocrisy of having Israel be the only country in the world that is required to label products from disputed territories. This is just another example of how the Biden administration is putting the interests of other countries ahead of America’s, and it is concerning for the future of our relationship with Israel.
“No other country in the world has to identify products exported from territory that is disputed,” political commentator Joel Petlin said. “We are just a few weeks away from the White House fully endorsing the BDS movement.”
Former U.S. Rep. Scott Taylor (R-VA) stated: “It is shocking the BDS movement may become official policy in this crazy leftist administration.”
“F***ing evil,” national security expert David Reaboi said.
The Biden administration’s actions towards Israel are heavily influenced by the progressive left, which has been calling for the delegitimization of Israel for years. With this new policy, they are making it easier for BDS supporters to target and boycott Israeli businesses, which will have a devastating impact on the Israeli economy and its people.
