ironically, Bernie is one of the few potential presidents who probably would have held Bibi off and not gotten involved in their adventures. He's been an outspoken critic.

hate him all you want, but clinton (mentored by fucking henry bomb cambodia kissinger) - and now trump as shown by the last year - never would have reigned him in. Bernie could shrug off AIPAC bullshit in ways none of them could ever hope.

That’s exactly why he was not nominated by the DNC, who’s leveraged by AIPAC backed candidates.

The whole system is corrupt. Both sides corrupt, one is more open and the other behind the mask.

it took him two? two and a half? years of genocide to finally call it a genocide

while he was calling it ethnic cleansing or some other thing that was essentially synonymous

that finally killed the bernie in my head that would have been a decent president

Sure, let’s just call it what it is: Occupied Palestine

He doesn't want to say Israel, because people conflate Israel with Judaism. He's also making the focus a singular discreet and addressable issue, without bringing up the fact that the formation of the state of Israel has been a problem since the Nakba.

Bernie is pretending like the Zionist entity is separable from its government.
