That terrorist state doesn't need any more arms.
This applies to both terrorist states, Israel and the US
Well I'm gonna say blocking sales of US arms to the US might be difficult.
😐
Sales. What sales? So we give these nutbags our tax payer money to them buy arms from us. Let me repeat that again, we gave them 19 billion dollar so that they can buy weapon for us.
Has your government given u any money to spend money in US.
Israel is just getting allowance from US and our hard earned tax money.
Anyone else who considers themselves pretty progressive feel like they're purposely being pushed away from this site by ml users and other barely literate trolls? Usually users who barely speak English, but spend 8-10 hours per day shitting on the US left, and (they think stealthily) promoting Donald Trump?
Just me?
How did Mr Booker vote? I'm just kidding.
17 hours later "And that's why I'm voting to keep sending arms to our valued partners in the IDF"
Over 2 years later, now he's concerned about weapons to Israel?
Here's Bernie in 1988 talking about Israeli war crimes against Palestine: https://youtu.be/TocimL0AT1w
Don't bother. These people thought Gaza was the place in Egypt with the big pyramid prior to Oct 7
So you had to go back to 1988? Not a word the last 3 years
You're either purposely trying to turn people against Sanders or willfully ignorant. He's been speaking against Israel forever.
Voted for US intervention in the following nations: Afghanistan, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Yugoslavia,2, Bosnia, Haiti, Congo, Liberia, Sudan, and Ukraine.
Supports drone bombing: "They have, at times, been effective.". Another interview: "Drones have done some good things. They've been selective; they've taken out people who should be taken out"
Bernie is against open borders, believes in strong border and anti-immigration policies.
Supports GW Bush. Supported warmonger John McCain after his death.
He is a POS snake
speaking, there you have it.
And he was also against the ceasefire.
Voted in favor of moving the coloniser capital to Jerusalem, etc.
not the word genocide, that's for sure.
A lot of israhell has the right to defend itself! and Hamas bad!
Because he's said multiple times that that word should instead be attributed by the international court of justice
https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/09/politics/video/israel-genocide-bernie-sanders-collins-source-digvid
Its intentional that he doesn't say genocide, because its a powerful legal word and he believes its not his place to apply it - however his stance and his actions are clear - abundantly clear - latching onto this one point, that he explicitly has a rationale for is silly at best, and deceptive at worst.
IDC about his BS laughable explanation.
So you care about what he dosent say, but dont care about what he actually says and does.
Got it.
This book should fulfill all your goals - it doesn't leave a single word unsaid: https://shop.merriam-webster.com/products/websters-third-new-international-dictionary-unabridged?_pos=1&_fid=95a7efe7f&_ss=c
says and does.
those are two different things. Not a difficult concept to grasp.
Say one thing and do another, that's what politicians do.
This US imperialist warmonger fake leftists is no different.
And I certainly do care that he DID say shitrael has the right to defend itself over and over again.
You’re a one note clown. Your entire post history is trying to shit on AOC and Bernie. Sorry for whatever shithole you come from. 🌻🌻🌻
LOL you're the shithole banana republic.
Nothing pleases me more than watching it go down in flames.
I'm from a civilised EU country with actual left wing politicians, I can only laugh at you lashing out like a frustrated toddler.
I do hope our politicians finally break ties with your cancer to the world country and let you rot like you deserve.
Bye now, don't cry to much.
Are you new? You don't know who Sanders is?
I know who Mr 'Israel has a right to defend itself' Sanders is
do you even know who bernie sanders is?
A person liberals hated until he fell in line
Going for the record of most total downvotes on Lemmy?
Don't care about down votes from victims of propaganda
You poor thing. You have an incredibly unfounded and skewed version of reality. I hope you one day learn to think critically.
LOL ok
