Senator Sanders urges the US to stop funding Israel's war machine
Independent Senator Bernie Sanders has said that the United States cannot continue to fund Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's war machine as it moves forward with a horrific genocide of Palestinians trapped in the besieged Gaza Strip.
Sanders, a former presidential candidate, condemned Israel's killing of 112 people this week and wounding of 750 others seeking aid in northern Gaza.
"Children are starving in Gaza. "Instead of opening the borders and allowing humanitarian aid to enter, Israeli soldiers are shooting people who are desperately trying to get food from the trucks," he said in a post on the X network.
"The US cannot continue funding Netanyahu's war machine," he said.
Sanders has said that the whole world is watching as Netanyahu and his right-wing supporters are starving the innocent children of Gaza and waging a genocidal war against the defenseless Palestinians in Gaza.
