Bernie Sanders calls Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu a 'racist' during Democratic debate

Quote

Bernie Sanders branded Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu a 'racist' during last night's Democratic presidential debate.

The Vermont senator said he supported Israel's 'right to exist in peace and security' but said US policy should be both pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian, earning applause.

Sanders might have to work with Netanyahu if he is elected president - although the long-serving Israeli leader faces a battle on multiple fronts to stay in power.

This should make for great relations with Israel if The Bern becomes President. Not that Israel lacks experience in such US hostility, courtesy of BHO.
