Left-wing US Senator Bernie Sanders launched an attack on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stressing the need not to confuse condemnation of the killing in Gaza with anti-Semitism.

Sanders addressed Netanyahu, "Saying that your government killed 34,000 in 6 months is neither anti-Semitic nor supportive of the Hamas movement."

He added that condemning the Netanyahu government's destruction of Gaza's universities and schools and depriving 625,000 of them of education is not anti-Semitism.

He added, "Saying that you destroyed Gaza's infrastructure, its health system, and 221,000 homes is not anti-Semitism."

Sands is active against Washington's support for Israel and its support for its devastating war on Gaza, which has been ongoing for about 7 months.

Two days ago, Sanders said that what Israel is waging in Gaza is no longer a war against Hamas, but rather to eliminate the fabric of Palestinian life.

In his speech before Congress to approve foreign aid, including military aid to Israel, Sanders explained that what is happening in Gaza are not accidents or war mistakes, but rather a calculated policy that has been implemented systematically for more than 6 months.

He pointed out that it is impossible to look at these facts and not conclude that the Israeli government's policy was aimed at making Gaza an uninhabitable area, and this is what is happening in reality.

The US Senator also criticized US complicity in the war on Gaza, and said that the war in Gaza is considered an Israeli-American war.

He explained that "most of the bombs and military equipment used by Israel in Gaza are provided by our country with American taxpayer money."

He pointed out that the United States provides billions of dollars to the Netanyahu government, which closes the borders on Gaza and prevents food and medical supplies from reaching the disadvantaged.
