If you're stupid, uneducated, love dictatorships, then Bernie's ideas are your cup of tea.

Bernie Sanders’ ‘old and tired’ ideas for Middle East peace

Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-Vermont) wrote an essay in the New York Times this week titled “Justice for the Palestinians and Security for Israel.”

His ideas are as old and tired as Sen. Sanders himself and as likely to succeed as his past bids for the presidency.

Sen. Sanders acknowledges, “I do not have all the answers.” Indeed, he has none. Just the calcified outlines of a terrorist Palestinian State lubricated by more American funding, some taken from money historically provided to Israel.

Sen. Sanders begins by obfuscating the salient facts.

He acknowledges Hamas’ murder of 1,200 innocent Israelis, but neglects any mention of the rape, torture and mutilation that these and other poor Israelis endured — an inconvenient fact, no doubt, in vouching for the Palestinian capacity to live in peace.

He also fails to mention that Hamas’ brutalization of Israeli civilians has now made it, overwhelmingly, the most popular political organization among the Palestinian people.

He also accepts as fact the death toll ascribed by the “Gazan Health Ministry” controlled by Hamas, and falsely attributes those deaths to “indiscriminate bombing” by the Israel Defense Forces.

I couldn’t help but recall an unpleasant conversation I had with Sen. Sanders in 2016 on the topic.

After he bitterly complained of Israeli soldiers attacking non-military sites (after warning civilians to leave), I asked him if he could identify any less lethal means for Israel to defend itself against Hamas terrorists who hid behind civilians.

He couldn’t then, and he can’t now.
