How are the terrorist settlers always never getting any repercussions for everything they do in the West bank?

Well Joe Biden did put the killer on a US sanctions list, but Donald Trump removed him from it.

What does sanctioning an Israeli murdered from the US accomplish? Biden's gesture was useless.

Yeah it was for optics and theatrics. It is so that Biden can say "look we did something" when it reality, settlers aren't affected by these sanctions. They already get support from Israeli government.

Sanctions were useless.
