Summary
Elise Stefanik, President Trump’s nominee for U.S. ambassador to the UN, stated during her confirmation hearing that Israel has a “biblical right” to the occupied West Bank, aligning with far-right Israeli officials.
Stefanik sidestepped support for Palestinian self-determination, blaming their leadership for failures.
Her stance signals a shift from Biden-era opposition to Israeli settlements, with Trump lifting sanctions on Israeli settler groups and nominating pro-settlement figures like Mike Huckabee for key roles.
Stefanik also vowed to audit UN funding and block aid to Palestinian refugee agencies.
Remember everyone, the “ceasefire” that Trump “negotiated” (wink wink) is in no way just a temporary distraction, he’s better for Gaza than Dems could ever have been.
trump didn’t negotiate the ceasefire, and if he did that would be illegal since he wasn’t president yet.
(it’s illegal to negotiate on behalf of the US in a non-official capacity).
Pretty sure the dude you’re replying to is being sarcastic.
i know
Yes, that was one reason for the quotes. (and the winking)
lol, Biden sure as hell didn’t negotiate any ceasefire either, Netanyahu handed it to Trump as a PR gift while Biden sat there smiling.
