Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir says the latest round of US sanctions against violent Israeli settlers and outposts “is further proof that the [Biden] administration does not understand the difference between the enemy and [its friend].”

“The [settlers] are the best of our sons who build, settle and bring security to the country, they deserve a salute not a knife in the back,” Ben Gvir tweets.
