Bernie Sanders: You can’t have a ‘permanent ceasefire’ with Hamas who wants ‘permanent war’
2023-12-11
Mugged by reality? Perhaps there is a but following this yes.
[IsraelTimes] Sen. Bernie Sanders, a harsh critic of Israel, repeats his assertion that there is no possibility of having a permanent ceasefire with a group like Hamas.

“I don’t know how you can have a permanent ceasefire with Hamas, who has said before October 7 and after October 7, that they want to destroy Israel and they want a permanent war,” Sanders says in an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”

“I don’t know how you have a permanent ceasefire with an attitude like that… I think Israel has the right to defend itself and to go after Hamas, not the Palestinian people.”
Ahhh — there’s the but. Israel has to fight with both hands and a foot tied behind her back, otherwise it’s not fair.

#1  I think Israel has the right to defend itself and to go after Hamas, not the Palestinian people.

I think Allies have a right to go after Nazis, not the German people.
