US lawmakers target Israel settlement
The article discusses the efforts of the Democratic-led U.S. Senate to impose sanctions on individuals and companies involved in implementing Israel's settlement project "E1" in the occupied West Bank. This project faces widespread international rejection and threatens the prospects for peace and a two-state solution. The proposed legislation aims to impose sanctions on entities and individuals supporting or carrying out the settlement constructions. It also highlights increasing tensions between Democrats and Israel, especially as support for the Israeli government wanes due to its actions in Palestinian territories. Meanwhile, polls suggest the Democrats may gain a Senate majority in the upcoming midterm elections in November. It is worth noting that the international community considers settlements illegal, a stance Israel rejects. However, the chances of passing the legislation remain slim, as the House of Representatives is currently not convened.
