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’
Fuck off. This is literally the most that’s in his power to do and it’s a hell of a lot more than the president himself is doing.
Bernie can’t stop the weapons shipments. Every time he tries to reel in the genocidal apartheid regime of Netanyahu by supporting or introducing legislation, he’s outvoted and out-influenced by Biden and the rest of the AIPAC toadies.
Using his platform to forcefully explain how detestable Netanyahu’s words and actions are is the most Bernie can do and, again, a hell of a lot more than those with the power to do more are doing.
He HAS been trying to legislate, but the AIPAC toadies in congress vote him down every time, spurred on by the AIPAC toady in the Oval Office.
You’re basically blaming him for others stopping him from doing his job.
As for revealing who supports genocide, at last vote it was everyone in the Senate except him and 3 others and everyone in the House except the Squad and about a dozen others IIRC.
Wasn’t quite as stark as I remembered it but it was still fucking GRIM at 72 to 11 when he tried to make military aid contingent on what it’s being used for.
Can’t seem to find the House bill I was thinking of
Nowhere, but that’s irrelevant. We know from other articles, TV News segments, C-SPAN, and the Congressional record that he’s been trying to legislate this whole time.
Reality and the documentation thereof doesn’t begin and end within one article from a mediocre British outlet.

Actually, the White House came out bashing the protests and calling them antisemitism as well
Of course they did 🤦
He could legislate, that’s his job. Introduce actual legislation to reveal who supports genocide. That would be a good start.
Maybe try actually reading before replying.

Also, do you have any links for you last paragraph? I can’t find relevant articles about it.

Ok then. Where in this article does it say that he even tried to legislate?
