Senator Bernie Sanders has publicly criticized the United States' financial support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, calling for an end to U.S. funding for what he describes as Netanyahu's 'war machine' to kill Palestinian children. In appearances on 'Face the Nation' and through various social media platforms, Sanders highlighted the suffering of Palestinian children and the destruction in Gaza, urging the Biden administration to block further aid. Sanders characterized Netanyahu's government as 'right-wing extremist' and argued that the U.S. should not be complicit in the 'mass slaughter of children.' He emphasized that regardless of political affiliation, Americans do not want to see children in Palestine starve to death. His comments reflect a broader critique of unconditional U.S. support for Israel's military actions, which he and others argue have been overwhelmingly brutal and ultimately self-defeating. Sanders also noted that the American people are 'increasingly disgusted by the destruction of Gaza' and called for 'no more taxpayer dollars to fund Netanyahu’s war machine.'

Americans are not blind. They see the bombing in Gaza, the starving children. Congress pretends we are powerless to stop it. But, the fact is, if we had the courage to stand up to some powerful special interests and use our leverage, we could stop the destruction NOW. https://t.co/cpVLJdEbGm
The ultimately self-defeating impact of brutal counterinsurgency is well-known in history. Why won’t Israel and its US partners learn? https://t.co/s0rAiHPDah
Israel’s pursuit of an overwhelmingly brutal military “total victory,” facilitated by unconditional U.S. support, is a loser from the start. Just ask the French about Algeria. NEW Sean Tomlinson: https://t.co/s0rAiHPDah
NEW Sean Tomlinson: Counterinsurgency by way of brutally pacifying the local population doesn't work. Just ask the mid-20th Century French in Algeria, the worst example of its kind in recent memory. https://t.co/s0rAiHPDah

NEW Sean Tomlinson: It may on the face seem irrelevant but Americans should reflect on the history of the brutal French counterinsurgency in Algeria in the context of Gaza and the longer history of the Israel-Palestine conflict. https://t.co/s0rAiHPDah
The American people are increasingly disgusted by the destruction of Gaza and the unbelievable misery that is befalling the Palestinian people. This must end. No more taxpayer dollars to fund Netanyahu’s war machine. https://t.co/DTf6qjoYb0
