    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 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.

        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.

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