Keep up the good fight Bernie. I can’t wait for Israel to call him anti semitic.
I wish Bernie was 25 years younger, he would be such a good president.
Is he aware that hamas is blocking and stealing all the food that Israel is trying to deliver???
He’s not wrong
Israel’s bringing in tons of trucks of aid that Hamas are still stealing, and killing anyone who tries to intervene.
Hamas is starving Palestinians. The same Hamas that Palestinians support and voted in.
To put all blame on Israel is disingenuous. They hold some reasonability, for sure, but most falls on Hamas.
Edit: You can’t say Palestinians don’t support Hamas when we watched them celebrating en masse on Oct 7th. We watched ordinary citizens sheltering and torturing hostages.
Areas of Palestine publicly put out to large crowds “highlight reels” on projectors of jews being killed on Oct 7th. We know this because they shared it to social media proudly.
Meanwhile, the Lebanese are pushing back against Hezbollah far more than what were seeing of Palestinians with Hamas.
The most moral politician in America.
Obama won 85% of the Muslim vote. Harris won just 20%. Yet all the big brain political intellectuals types like Sam Harris, Ezra Klein, Bill Maher (lol), etc insist Harris lost because of pronouns and LatinX.
Maybe not allowing a Palestinian speaker at the DNC was a mistake? Trump took over the Republican party by giving red meat to the most ravenous fringe elements of the party. Not by avoiding controversial issues and appealing to the center. Perhaps Democrats should have considered a little red meat for the Left.
Those arms sale aren’t just for Gaza. Israel is surrounded by groups and states who want to wipe them off the map. It’s not as simple as people make it sound .
I guess Egypt and Jordon should just let the refugees in.
He’s right. 100% right.
Funding the starvation of children is just one item on a long list of evil shit our government officials fund with my tax dollars.
I’d argue we’re funding the slaughter of children in Gaza and the starvation of our own children at home
Less than 40 people have starved in Gaza since 10/7, all talks of famine have been walked back due to lack of evidence, and Hamas and other groups of Palestinians have reportedly been looting every aid truck they can.
So where are these starving children Bernie speaks of?
The media has failed to explain to me, why children must die and suffer in Gaza
They haven’t even conveyed the Israeli govt position about why this is necessary
How do the senators who vote to keep supplying weapons live with themselves?
They know these weapons are killing vast numbers of people, they can see the contrast between the lengths they are willing to go to protect jewish Israeli lives (billions of dollars in US taxpayer money, direct intervention by the US military and sophisticated missile defence systems) compared to a total unwillingness to protect non-jewish lives.
Do they think “I know I am a racist psycopath, but I don’t care” or do they think AIPAC money is worth sacrificing their consciences?
18 democrats and zero Republicans voted for it.
I mean let’s be real. The US has long funded harming children (and adults) in Gaza and elsewhere.
Nice
I mean hes not wrong but we just voted in the guy who promised to “finish the job”. At this point voting against funding israel is a bit like putting a cushion on the ground before pushing someone aff a skyscraper.
