Bernie Sanders: US policy in Mideast can’t be pro-Israel

25

In a recent podcast Bernie Sanders said that America’s Middle East policy should not be pro-Israel. That is because Bernie Sanders wants America’s Middle East policy be anti-Israel, pro-jihad, and anti-America. When Bernie Sanders says that he believes “the people of Israel have absolutely the right to live in peace, independence, and security. End of discussion,” he is lying through his teeth.

Sanders’ campaign is staffed with Jew-haters, who despise Israel. Sanders has been endorsed by BDS supporter Linda Sarsour. Sanders has also fund raised for Ilhan Omar and has defended  Rashida Tlaib, despite their open support for the BDS Movement. Sanders also flew to London to campaign for BDS supporter and anti-Semite Jeremy Corbyn. In 2016, Sanders appointed three supporters of the BDS Movement to the Democrat Party platform committee as well. One can not say that they support Israel, while aligning with people who advocate for Israel’s eradication.

Sanders had the audacity to say “I think what has happened is in recent years under Netanyahu, you have an extreme right-wing government with many racist tendencies,” when most segments of Palestinian society teach racism of Jews (here, here) that is reminiscent of Nazi-Germany. Sanders also doesn’t mention how prominent Palestinians deny the Holocaust while embracing the Nazi regime for their genocide of Europe’s Jews.

Sanders also admitted that he would consider using the military aid the U.S. sends to Israel each year as leverage, to force PM Netanyahu to “change his actions, when defending Israel’s citizens against jihadists. Let Sanders try. Netanyahu has spent his life defending Israel against some of the worst Jew-haters and jihadists on the planet. Netanyahu would have no problem telling the feeble Sanders what he can do with his aid. It is Democrats such as Bernie Sanders that are forcing Israel to engage China.

If elected President, Sanders would be lethal to Israel. Worst then Obama and much worse than Carter. Jewish groups must expose Bernie Sanders for the anti-Semitic Israel-hater that he is, they way British Jews have exposed Jeremy Corbyn. #Jexodus!

Bernie Sanders: US policy in Mideast can’t be ‘pro-Israel, pro-Israel, pro-Israel’

By Fox News, July 27, 2019:

U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders said Friday that U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East cannot be “pro-Israel.”

The Democratic 2020 presidential candidate, who is Jewish and has lived in Israel in the past, made the remark Friday on the “Pod Save America” podcast.

“Our policy cannot just be pro-Israel, pro-Israel, pro-Israel,” Sanders said. “It has got to be pro-region, working with all of the people, all of the countries in that area.”

The independent from Vermont said he fervently believes that “the people of Israel have absolutely the right to live in peace, independence, and security. End of discussion,” but added he has an issue with the way Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has run the country in recent years, the Washington Examiner reported.

“I think what has happened is in recent years under Netanyahu, you have an extreme right-wing government with many racist tendencies,” Sanders said, blaming the prime minister for worsening tensions between Israel and the Palestinians. Sanders also criticized President Trump’s decision to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to the holy city of Jerusalem, something he believes put peace negotiations with Palestinians at risk.

In May, the Trump administration officially opened the new U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, in a historic move cheered by Israelis but met with mass protests from Palestinians that turned deadly in the lead-up to the ceremony. Clashes at the border had left dozens of Palestinians dead and hundreds wounded by the time the ceremony ended. But Israel’s prime minister praised the Israeli security forces for protecting the Gaza-Israel border, as U.S. officials held out hope that the prospect of peace remained in reach.

Sander’s represents, to me, why the Democratic Party is in a free fall, and
why its agenda is simply not good for America. He spouts the usual vermin,
falsehood, that Israel is an apartheid state, without expressing facts to
support such comments, just as the party has done to constantly put down Trump.
More significantly, he fails to take into account the Arab mentality that is
overwhelmingly anti-Semitic and has as its goal to wipe the people and nation
of Israel off the map. He represents such outrageously wrong thinking that I
find candidates like him scary. I do not believe that if one was born Jewish,
one should be expected to find favor with anything and everything Jewish, but I
also believe that the Arab mentality is such that they are robotic in their
false claims that everything and anything Jewish is to be faulted. I expect
that those citizens of Israel, who are of Arabic descent, would likely be
happier with how Israel treats them as citizens, than the Iranians, Gazan’s and
Palestinians treat their own kind. Therefore, I must conclude, like all of what
appears to be an inane agenda of the Democratic Party that Sanders likewise
falls into that same category!

Let’s just face it: Bernie Sanders simply has a screw loose.
Helping Muslims wipe out the Jews will not guarantee peace in the middle East. With no one else to kill, Muslims will just start killing themselves, until they figure out someone else to go after. Sanders is a modern day Chamberlin. Appeasement does not settle things.

Actually, Muslims are killing themselves, unfortunately not fast enough. There will never be peace in the Mid East, and it has nothing to do with Israel. Take a look at a globe, and everywhere there are Muslims, there are problems. Muslims vs. Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, and even other Muslims. Islam, not Israel, is the problem.

“US policy in Mideast can’t be pro-Israel”
But it can be Pro-Iran? Pro-Hamas? and Pro-Hezbollah?

Anti-zionists who claim to be neutral usually work for the other side.

With passage of UN Resolution 2334 by the United Nations Security
Council on Dec. 23, 2016, a dramatic shift began to occur in
global politics. With this action, which condemns Israel for the
settlements they’ve created in the West Bank (Judea and Samaria) and in
east Jerusalem, the world has entered into an even more dangerous
period. We are coming upon a time in which all nations will eventually
turn against Israel, not just politically but violently and militarily,
as well. Unknown to most people who are concerned about Middle East
peace, and this includes the politicians and diplomats involved with
passing this resolution, these events are powerful harbingers of what
the Bible predicts will happen in the Last Days before Christ returns.

Yes, but Israel didn’t create any settlements, since the land of Judea & Samaria is Israeli. The only settlements in the area were created by the Muslim occupiers / invaders known as “Palestinians”. But unfortunately, Israel’s security may be an election or so away. Hopefully Trump wins in 2020, but after that what happens? Can Pence win in 2024? It would be great not only for Israel, but for America as well if Trump pulled us out of the U.N. entirely! The U.N. is rabidly anti-American also and Trump talks about bad deals, the U.N. has to be one of the worst! We fund well over a quarter of the U.N. and all they do when not attacking Israel is teaming up to go after America. All these countries know they have no chance of defeating the U.S. individually, so they come together in the U.N. to try and do so, and we pay for it!

He doesn’t seem to think so. History has shown, time and time again, that the agenda he promotes will one day force him to realize that he is a Jew. Einstein never thought much about his Judaism until Jew haters reminded him that he was a Jew. To those who hate Jews and Israel, there is no differentiation between a self-hating Jew and a proud Jew. To them, a Jew is a Jew. Initially, they see some Jews like Bernie as useful idiots, but they are still Jews, nonetheless, and once their usefulness is no longer needed, Bernie will be seen by them as a just a Jew. Additionally, they will laugh hysterically at him for being so unbelievably stupid!

Bernie Sanders is out trying to make friends with Jew-haters. Actually, the only thing he supports is himself, to the taxpayer money. He cares about himself, not Americans. He is strictly a politician, and has no basis or relationship with the American people. It is easy to spout rhetoric, especially if nobody makes you back it up.
We have suffered this fool too long. He does not represent or even love this country.
When the 2016 election was looming, Sanders had a net value of about $250,000. (Part of that was loot stolen by his wife, but that is another story). After Sanders got the screw from Hillary and Debbie, he joined their campaign for Hillary, and his finances soared. Now Bernie is a millionaire, and he has never worked a day in his life.
