Tweets by Bernie Sanders on Israeli Terrorism

Congress must not provide any more U.S. funding for Netanyahu’s illegal, immoral, and brutal war that is destroying the lives of innocent men, women, and children in Gaza. (January 5, 2024)

There is a horrific humanitarian disaster in Gaza. The U.S. should not provide another nickel to the Netanyahu government unless there is a fundamental change in military policy and their response to the humanitarian crisis. (January 19, 2024)

Netanyahu’s right-wing government is starving the Palestinian people. On top of its indiscriminate bombardment, Israel is imposing onerous restrictions to block the delivery of essential humanitarian aid. The U.S. must use all of its leverage to end this horrific war. (January 26, 2024)

The United States has got to say loudly and clearly to Netanyahu and his right-wing government: You are not getting another nickel of U.S. taxpayer money to murder women and children in Gaza. (March 1, 2024)

The United States of America cannot allow the wholesale slaughter of the Palestinian people. (March 3, 2024)

Right now tens of thousands of children in Gaza are facing starvation, malnutrition, and famine. And Congressional leadership thinks it’s okay to invite war criminal Netanyahu to address Congress? No. Unacceptable. (June 4, 2024)

The American people do not want to see starvation used as a tool of war, which is what the Netanyahu government is doing right now. (June 19, 2024)

 

 

No, Netanyahu should not be welcomed into the U.S. Congress. On the contrary, his policies in Gaza and the West Bank and his refusal to support a two-state solution should be roundly condemned. As I stated last month, I will not be attending his address. (July 23, 2024)

 

 

Netanyahu is a war criminal. We must do everything in our power to end the war in Gaza, and provide immediate humanitarian relief to the people who are suffering there. (July 24, 2024)

 

 

Since the war in Gaza began, at least 39,000 Palestinians have been killed and 89,000 injured. Netanyahu is a war criminal. He should not be addressing Congress. (July 24, 2024)
