Senator Bernie Sanders has intensified his critique of the U.S. policy towards Israel, specifically targeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's actions in Gaza. Sanders has publicly demanded a cease-fire in Gaza and criticized the U.S. financial support for Netanyahu's government, stating "Not another nickel for Netanyahu’s government" amidst what he describes as the 'wholesale slaughter of the Palestinian people.' His comments have sparked a broader discussion on the U.S.'s stance on Israel, with Sanders also condemning President Biden's policy as 'totally absurd' and incompatible with a peaceful resolution. Sanders's stance has been met with mixed reactions, with some praising his moral stance and others questioning his criticism of Israel without equally addressing the role of Hamas in the conflict.
