Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders said Sunday he doesn’t know that a ceasefire is possible in the Israel-Hamas war with “an organization like Hamas” involved.

“I don’t know how you can have a ceasefire, (a) permanent ceasefire, with an organization like Hamas, which is dedicated to turmoil and chaos and destroying the state of Israel,” Sanders told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union” Sunday.

    Fight back? Lol. After being born in an open air prison.

    After being born into oppression.

    After being told they’re nothing more than animals.

    After being thrown in prison as a kid for decades because they threw stones at a fucking tank.

    After being slowly starved to death.

    After being evicted from their lands and homes by the Israeli military, AND being mocked by the very settlers that take their homes from them right in front of their faces at the same time.

    After their parents, children, siblings, aunts and uncles, their entire fucking bloodline is being bombed to death.

    After watching the whole world just stand there and watch them being slaughtered just because Israel has more money, so they can lobby?

    After weeks of Israel secretly lobbying the EU and US to displace all Palestinians to the Sinai peninsula, you know, a fucking HUGE part of another sovereign country like that’s very normal, all the while killing thousands of people for a little piece of their land? Now I understand why the Egyptian president Sisi told the EU to take in Gazans themselves, if they care so much about human rights.

    After kids literally see organs and body parts flying around because of the bombing?

    After having no access to water, so no drinking water, toilets, showers, dehumanising them. Opening one water source because of UN pressure and then a few days later bombing that specific water source…

    After having no food for a month now.

    After threatening the UN to teach them a lesson because they asked for a humanitarian pause.

    After killing journalists and their entire family in precision attacks, so they can’t report what’s really going on?

    After killing UN workers?

    Right now they’ve also run out of medicine. One patient’s lungs had to be rinsed with ginger. They use effing ginger as an antibiotic/antiseptic. One kids leg had been blown off and they had to operate without anesthesia…

    You want these people to fight? LOL.

    There’s really no way Israel comes out of this as the ‘good guy’. The atrocities they committed and still are committing in less than a month’s time, has made the world forget about 7/10. THAT says something, because we thought THAT day was bad.

      Actually in Gaza they have the 1967 borders and all the settlers were forcibly evicted in 2004/2005 (some at gunpoint). You’re thinking of the West Bank, we’re talking about Gaza.

      A lot of this rant doesn’t really apply to Gaza.

      Yes fight back like so many oppressed people have done before. Or flee to a place that doesn’t oppress you.

        Clearly you didn’t read any of that. Where can they go? They are essentially trapped. And of course they have to leave their homes when they’re being oppressed.
