Sanders to Introduce Amendment to End U.S. Complicity in Netanyahu's War on Palestinian People [View all]

The U.S. must end its complicity in the nightmare unfolding in Gaza.

That is why I will be offering an amendment to the supplemental bill to ensure zero funding for the continuation of Netanyahu’s illegal, immoral war against the Palestinian people.

The Democrats should and probably will ignore TexasDem69 Feb 2 #3

Agree. As an 'independent' he doesn't have to help Biden's long term strategy for the ME. Or make tough ancianita Feb 2 #15

Thank you Senator Sanders. Think. Again. Feb 2 #4

Agreed. Our continued complicity may cost Dems votes among Arab and Muslim Americans... brush Feb 2 #5

You can support that Hamas poses no further risk TheKentuckian Feb 2 #6

We can expect the far right Israeli government to claim Palestinian civilians are Hamas. canuckledragger Feb 2 #13

So true! Hamas operated within a vacuum within Gaza nt GuppyGal Feb 2 #17

I made no such assertion to defend it. TheKentuckian Feb 3 #70

FAR BEYOND 'defending itself' DemocraticPatriot Feb 3 #38

Has the threat posed been abated? TheKentuckian Feb 3 #71

I fully stand with Senator Sanders on this. nt Celerity Feb 2 #9

The issue is complicated and not appropriate for grandstanding. TomSlick Feb 2 #10

THIS. I've said as much on several occasions B.See Feb 2 #22

Stating a position is now "grand-standing" ?? DemocraticPatriot Feb 3 #39

Senator Sanders is intelligent. He knows there are no simple answers. TomSlick Feb 3 #81

But perhaps someone need to 'say it', anyway..... DemocraticPatriot Feb 4 #84

If Senator Sanders was a Democrat, I'd be more unhappy with him. TomSlick Feb 4 #87

Senator Sanders has done less to 'undercut' President Biden than a few DemocraticPatriot Feb 5 #88

When will Sanders introduce an amendment in support of Israelis who oppose Netanyahu? Beastly Boy Feb 2 #12

That would be a 'Senate resolution', which would be legally meaningless--- DemocraticPatriot Feb 3 #40

Well that's good Richard D Feb 3 #32

Well, some can defend the indefensible. canuckledragger Feb 3 #36

There is the mistake, and it is common and a big one. Richard D Feb 3 #55
