Alan Dershowitz spoke on the right-wing channel Newsmax Friday, and called Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders a “self-hating Jew.”

In a segment first flagged by Media Matters’ Jason Campbell, Dershowitz told a Newsmax host during a segment on Gal Gadot’s comments on Israel and Palestine, “You can be a Jew and an anti-Semite.”

He continued, “Bernie Sanders, who’s Jewish, is a self-hating Jew, a self-hating Jew who is willing to see Israel be defeated militarily by a terrorist group because he’s on the hard left and he has to follow the hard left.”

Bernie Sanders wrote an op-ed in the New York Times calling for the US to stop being “apologists” for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and to reexamine US military aid to Israel.

Sanders called out Hamas for its role in escalating violence as well, saying, “Hamas firing rockets into Israeli communities is absolutely unacceptable” and that it’s attempting to “to exploit the unrest in Jerusalem.”
