US won't sanction IOF Netzah Yehuda battalion for human rights violations in West Bank

In a world where human rights violations often lead to international sanctions, a recent decision by the United States to end an investigation into an Israeli occupation forces unit, the Netzah Yehuda battalion, has proven a rule that applies to all but the US and “Israel”. So, what’s the scoop? The US decided not to sanction the battalion even though it committed human rights violations in the occupied West Bank. Despite the evidence—and a 1997 law prohibiting US aid to foreign units guilty of such crimes—the Biden administration decided not to impose sanctions, following behind-the-scenes lobbying by Israeli Security Minister Yoav Gallant. This decision reflects the ongoing US commitment to providing unconditional support to "Israel" even in the face of documented human rights abuses and the current genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
