Nine Democrats, Plus Rand Paul, Join Bernie Sanders’ Anti-Israel Resolution

Joel B. Pollak 17 Jan 2024

Eleven Senators voted for a resolution by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) that would have demanded the U.S. State Department report to Congress about human rights violations by Israel.

Sanders has admitted that a “ceasefire” with Hamas makes no sense, as the Palestinian terrorist organization has made clear that it intends to continue attacking Israel if given the opportunity.

However, he has continued to attack Israel and to claim, falsely, that Israel is brutalizing the Palestinian civilian population.

Business Insider listed the 11 Senators who backed the resolution:

    Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky

    Democratic Sen. Martin Heinrich of New Mexico

    Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon

    Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont

    Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland

    Democratic Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts

    Democratic Sen. Laphonza Butler of California

    Democratic Sen. Ben Ray Lujan of New Mexico

    Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii

    Democratic Sen. Peter Welch of Vermont

    Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts

The resolution singles out Israel and claims that Israel relies “heavily on the use of airstrikes and artillery bombardment.”

In fact, Israel has not relied on airstrikes, but rather has placed its soldiers at risk in a ground invasion that has already cost nearly 200 Israeli soldiers’ lives.

As right as Rand normally is here, he missed this one.  I'll give him a mulligan on this one.

Let's see,here.

Israel is invaded AGAIN by Muslims that openly  declare they want to see all Jews put to death and be able to legally seize all the Jewish property in Israel,and SOMEHOW this is the Jews fault?

WTF??????

Why does ANYONE take those goobers seriously?

From what I know of Rand...his fiscal policies are rock solid but he is an isolationist. That would be great, but in today's interconnected world it's not feasible.

Sen. Laphonza Butler?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
