Settler violence and Israeli military raids in the occupied West Bank have surged since October 7. Residents have been displaced, homes have been attacked and Palestinians have been killed and injured.

More than a dozen countries, including the United States, France, the United Kingdom and Australia have condemned the violence, and some have announced visa restrictions on anyone found to have taken part in the attacks.

But these restrictions miss a big loophole: dual nationals.

It is estimated that of the 700,000 settlers who live in occupied East Jerusalem and the West Bank, at least 60,000 are also American citizens. People & Power investigates the role US citizens play in Israel’s settlement and military activities in the occupied Palestinian territory.

    Saying Israel is a country is like saying a burglar owns your home.

    Israeli American soldiers fighting for Israel should not expect a warm welcome when they return to America.

    Read a 1995 tax treaty between the US and Israel. The US government gives some generous tax exemptions to Israeli corporations in the US, while both governments are getting money from the American taxpayers. American citizens will always come last. Keep sending your hard-earned money abroad, to politicians and war contractors. while some citizens still need foodstamps.
