Washington, March 22 (RHC)-- Over 70 former U.S. diplomats, government and military officials have urged President Biden to warn Israel against building illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank and denying Palestinian rights. 

The officials, including Clinton national security adviser Anthony Lake, say the U.S. should be prepared to withhold “assistance” to Israel. 

Israel has killed at least 430 Palestinians in the West Bank since October 7, including 10 people on Thursday alone. 

Among those killed yesterday were a 19-year-old teenager and a 63-year-old man who converted to Judaism but was, reportedly, “mistakenly” shot. Israeli forces have detained over 7,300 West Bank Palestinians since October 7th.
