Bernie Sanders May 08, 2025

[based on speech given to US Senate]

"Thursday marks 68 days and counting since ANY humanitarian aid was allowed into Gaza. For more than nine weeks, Israel has blocked all supplies: no food, no water, no medicine, and no fuel.

Hundreds of truckloads of lifesaving supplies are waiting to enter Gaza, sitting just across the border, but are denied entry by Israeli authorities.

… Defense Minister Israel Katz said, “Israel’s policy is clear: No humanitarian aid will enter Gaza, and blocking this aid is one of the main pressure levers.” "

      Because you can’t admit there is Muslim genocide around the world. Because that genocide doesn’t involve the US, and, proving my entire original comment correct: you don’t give a shit about genocide when it doesn’t make the US look bad.

      Thanks for proving me right this entire time. You might have had me dance, but I got your number, lol

      Byyyeeeee

        You read a lot into my refusal to answer your question a second time. Believe what you want; at least you’re no longer trying to deflect.

          I never was, you just like people to dance. But you only care about genocide when there’s something in it for you. That’s pretty disgusting. Although your whole dance and dash is pretty psychopathic, so I guess that makes sense. You’d make a good Israelite.

            And you’re back to deflecting. Believe what you want. I got you to admit that your god was committing genocide like you want him to.

              I’m not deflecting anything. You are the one who refuses to admit the genocide exists outside of Gaza. That’s pretty disgusting. And it doesn’t make me feel bad when you tell me what I think, that isn’t true, I’m learning that’s the kind of person you are.

              You can have whatever joyous feelings you want from this conversation. Just remember that I nailed it on the first try – which is clearly why you got so upset.

              Love you good night 🚫

                You are the one who refuses to admit the genocide exists outside of Gaza.

                That’s the opposite of what I did and you know it. If someone else asks me I’ll answer them, provided they’re not just trying to deflect from the US’ involvement in netanyahu’s genocide like you’ve been doing all day. You got my answer already.

                How many more times are you gonna say goodbye?
