    Bernie is trashing whatever respect the left had for him with this conflict.

    He posted this a few hours ago, pretending to have evolved toward a more aggressive stance against Israel … but it’s obviously worded in a way as to scapegoat Netanyahu specifically, while washing the hands of US empire and the Biden administration.

      From Bernie’s video:

      what the president is trying to do is trying to make clear to Netanyahu and his right-wing extreme government is “yes you can go to war against Hamas but you cannot go to war against the Palestinian people”

      the United States has got to put all of the pressure that it can to tell Netanyahu to stop this disastrous military approach

      Yeah this is more lib shit. Like you said, he’s trying to distance Biden, America, and imo even Israel from genocide, making it a Netanyahu problem. “Orange man bad” but Netanyahu version.

      He doesn’t want a ceasefire. Seems like he really does think that Palestinians fighting against their own ethnic cleansing deserve to die. What a clown.
