The US has propped up Israel to the tune of billions of dollars, but the politics of pleasing hard-line Israelis pushing for the settlements trumps anything it seems. There has for a long time not been an Israeli government that wasn't cobbled together from parties holding seats in a loose coalition. This coalition includes these Palestinian hating, land grabbing parties as well, and so Netanyahu is simply keeping himself in power by pandering to them. How else does someone justify actively not upholding a law in spite of universal condemnation.
Russia will not expel anyone in response to U.S. sanctions, Putin says
President Vladimir Putin said Moscow would not expel anyone in response to Washington's decision to throw out 35 suspected Russian spies and sanction intelligence agencies it believes were involved in computer hacking in the 2016 presidential election.
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov earlier proposed expelling 35 U.S. diplomats after outgoing U.S. President Barack Obama ordered the expulsions and sanctions on Thursday.
But Putin said he would wait for the actions of President-elect Donald Trump, who will take office on Jan. 20, before deciding on any further steps in relations with the United States.
"We will not expel anyone," Putin said in a statement on Friday. "While keeping the right for retaliatory measures, we will not descend to the level of 'kitchen', irresponsible diplomacy."
He even invited the children of U.S. diplomats to a party in the Kremlin.
It was not clear whether Trump, who has repeatedly praised Putin and nominated people seen as friendly toward Moscow to senior administration posts, would seek to roll back the measures which mark a new post-Cold War low in U.S.-Russian ties.
Russian officials have portrayed the sanctions as a last act of a lame-duck president and suggested that Trump could reverse them when he takes over the White House.
"Further steps towards the restoration of Russian-American relations will be built on the basis of the policy which the administration of President D. Trump will carry out," said Putin.
In a separate message of New Year congratulations to Trump, he said Russia-U.S. relations were an important factor for maintaining global safety and stability.
The U.S. sanctions also closed two Russian compounds in New York and Maryland that the administration said were used by Russian personnel for "intelligence-related purposes".
However, a former Russian Foreign Ministry employee told Reuters that the facility in Maryland was a dacha used by diplomatic staff and their children.
Lavrov also proposed banning U.S. diplomats from using a dacha in Moscow's prestigious waterfront park area, Serebryany Bor.
But Putin said Russia would not prohibit U.S. diplomats and their families from their usual vacation spots. "Moreover, I invite all children of American diplomats accredited in Russia to the New Year and Christmas party in the Kremlin," he said.

I could care less about Russia. But Russian hacking into the US was a thing since 2012, Bill O Reilly told Obama to do something about it, he refused.
Suddenly Hillary lost, his legacy is down the sewers now because of that so suddenly he wants to take action. Had Hillary won and Russia hacked the RNC instead, he would be taking no sanctions just like he did nothing about it for 4 years. This is no coincidence he is obviously doing scorched earth the same thing Bush did to him before leaving office. Grown men behaving like this is shameful if you ask me everybody is aware of his BS.
But what is deeply troubling is how he stabbed Israel in the back, nobody cares about Russia they do not provide anything of significance we need, what is important is Obama stabbing the Jews in the back and siding with terrorists like Hamas. The guy is behaving like an angry tenant who just got an eviction notice all because he couldn't run for a third term something he has expressed numerous times

It escapes you that he is holding his hand until Trump is sworn in? Then he will impose his retaliatory sanctions, Trump will cancel his, Putin will then cancel his, and he and Putin can have a celebratory bull, all while looking like they have averted a crisis.
