Biden going to force Jewish products to be labeled
President Joe Biden is reportedly preparing to force Jewish made products from Judea and Samaria to be clearly labeled so consumers know where the products are from — a clear sign that the administration wants to enable boycotts.It goes without saying this only legitimizes efforts to boycott Israel over all the wrong reasons, based on anti-Israeli blood libels, while legitimizing jihadism. Folks like former ambassador David Friedman have made clear this is reprehensible, and it cannot be allowed to go without objections. Absolutely disgusting.
The Financial Times reported that the timing of the new policy is unknown at this point and that it is designed to “increase pressure on Israel” over what Palestinians claim is violence from Israelis who live in Judea and Samaria.
The report said that the move from the administration would reverse a policy enacted by President Donald Trump that required goods made in Judea and Samaria to be labeled as “Made in Israel.”
Update: Congress speaker Mike Johnson makes a vital point that lectures against Israel must cease:
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) marked the half-year point since the deadly Hamas attack on Israeli soil by calling for an end to the “lecturing” of Israel as it fights the terrorist group.Johnson's absolutely right.
His statement, released on Sunday, comes as a growing number of Democrats in Congress and the Biden administration increasingly criticize Israel for how it has conducted its campaign in Gaza and called for stopping the flow of U.S. arms.
“Today, of all days, Washington must be united in our support for our great ally, Israel, as they fight for their sovereignty and right to exist,” Johnson said.
“It’s time to stop lecturing Israel on how it should best defend itself and begin equipping our friend with the resources necessary to eliminate the threat of Hamas, once and for all,” he continued. [...]
Johnson said he joins Americans across the country in mourning the loss of the roughly 1,200 people killed in the October 7 attack.
“Since the massacre, it’s been appalling to watch anti-Israel rhetoric and support for an unconditional cease-fire grow among Democrats in Washington, even as Hamas holds Israelis and Americans hostage in Gaza,” Johnson said.
“Unlike our Democrat colleagues, House Republicans remain clear-eyed about who the enemy in this fight is, and we will not stop working and praying until each of the hostages is returned home,” he added.
In the face of Biden’s disapproval, as well as a demand by the United Nations for a ceasefire, Netanyahu said on Sunday there would be no standing down until the hostage situation is resolved.
