PNN – Bernie Sanders, an independent American senator, while criticizing the killing of Palestinian children by the Israeli regime and emphasizing that Benjamin Netanyahu should change his policy if he wants help from America, said: America should no longer send money to the Israeli Prime Minister’s war machine.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network from Politico magazine, Sanders said yesterday in an interview with CBS News: America cannot be a partner in the mass killing of [Palestinian] children.
He once again asked the White House officials to stop sending unconditional military aid to Israel. This independent senator further called the Gaza war an “unprecedented crisis”.
Sanders added: “It is not just a matter of 30,000 Palestinians killed, two-thirds of whom are women and children, but we are also considering the possibility of hundreds of thousands of children dying of starvation.”

According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, the bombing and ground attacks of the Israeli regime have left more than 30,000 dead and at the same time many others are dying of hunger due to the siege of this strip.
Sanders continued his remarks and noted: “The American government cannot beg [Benyamin] Netanyahu. You have to tell him “if you want money, you have to change your policy. Let the trucks come in to deliver food to the children.”
At the same time as emphasizing the destruction of the Hamas resistance group, this American senator asked US President Joe Biden to implement the foreign aid law; A law that states the United States will not send aid to any country that blocks or restricts the flow of humanitarian aid from Washington.
In this context, he added: Israel violates the law. Stopping US humanitarian aid is a violation of the law. This should be specified. Sanders then said that “no more money goes to Netanyahu’s war machine to kill Palestinian children.”
Sanders asked his supporters to support Biden in the November presidential election, despite his opposition to the Biden government’s aid to the Zionist regime and his growing pressure on the White House.
