In reply to the discussion: Bernie calls for halt to Israel funding in SCATHING letter - "Passive observer of war crimes" [View all]Oopsie Daisy

So many things are wrong with that letter, but I'm grateful for the fact-checkers here who set the record straight and who put things into perspective. It's unclear to me why anyone would think that it's helpful, this close to the election, to start tarring Biden and Harris as being "war criminals". Honestly, that makes no sense to me. We need to elect Democrats and defeat Republicans. Anyone who thinks that cheap-shots and this kneecapping bullshit is necessary or helpful needs to check themselves.

"Genocide" apparently meaning when the population actually increases every year.

Right before an election. I guess Sanders is implicitly telling those uncommitted votes not to vote for VP Harris.
