Re: Blinken says Israel new settlements in West Bank ‘inconsistent’ with international law

Ah! The worm is turning. The WORLD has BUCKED THE U.S., and now the U.S. government is trying to save face; “…
“Israel’s expansion of settlements in the Occupied West Bank were inconsistent with international law, US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, said on Friday, signaling a return to long-standing US policy….” “They’re also inconsistent with international law. Our administration maintains a firm opposition to settlement expansion and, in our judgment, this only weakens, doesn’t strengthen Israel’s security,” Blinken said. WELL, WELL, WELL, Mr. Biden; after almost four years, and you ‘decide’ to return to the ‘old’ policy. The WORLD is NOT with you, and then there’s that election coming up in November and a lot of Americans, unhappy with your Middle East/ISRAEL policy aren’t too keen on you either. Right? Oh! And did you not say at a meeting of AIPAC “I am a Zionist?” (Say anything to get elected).
