These Trump Executive Orders and Stefanik Hearings Show Dramatic Shift in US Policy Toward Israel

After his inauguration, President Donald Trump signed what some called a tsunami of executive orders in the Oval Office. Those orders affect not only the U.S. but also Israel and the Middle East.

The executive orders include:

Revoking sanctions on several Israeli citizens in Judea and Samaria imposed by the Biden administration.    

Restoring sanctions against the International Criminal Court

Defunding UNRWA, the United Nations Relief & Works Agency for Palestinian refugees

Authorizing deportation of U.S. visa holders involved in pro-Hamas protests

Lifting restrictions on arms sales to Israel, including the supply of 2,000-lb. bombs
