The Vermont Senator, one of America’s highest-profile Jewish lawmakers, said the Israeli leader was head of an ‘extremist and racist government’ and that the US campus protests against the Gaza war are ‘not antisemitic’
He’s trying to legislate, goddammit.
All it takes is typing “Bernie Sanders legislation” in a search engine, and use your goddamn eyes.
Here’s what he’s trying to do:
My first amendment would ensure that we are not providing any more offensive military aid to Netanyahu’s war machine while he continues to violate U.S. and international law.
This amendment would not touch funding for the Iron Dome or other purely defensive systems, but it would end aid to a war machine which has already killed 34,000 Palestinians and
wounded 77,000, 70 percent of whom are women and children. And, right now, as we speak, hundreds of thousands of
children face starvation as a result of that war machine.
The second amendment that I am offering would remove the prohibition on funding for UNRWA, the backbone of the humanitarian relief operation in Gaza and the only organization that
experts say has the capability to provide the humanitarian aid that is desperately needed.
Israel has alleged that 12 UNRWA employees out of 30,000 were involved in the Hamas terrorist attack on October 7.

That is being investigated and it should be. But you don’t allow thousands of children to starve because of the alleged violations and actions of 12 people.
