    ICC needs to reopen the case on Bush and Blair and put the two goons in maximum prison for life

    What is the point of having international laws if you’re not going to enforce them? Using starvation as a means of warfare is a war crime. Actively restricting aid is a war crime. Actively targeting civilians is clearly a war crime. Netanyahu has ordered these things to happen. Whether or not you agree with Israel, whether or not you believe Palestine is a nation or not. That’s wrong and should be punished.

    All he says is the truth but a lot of people don’t like the truth The truth is burning them
  • @bendrover
    Its going to be nearly impossible to get respect back once its lost.
  • A war crime is a war crime, no matter who does it. It's that simple. The U.S.A. leadership seems to think if a person is rich and/or powerful and is one of "our" guys, they should be above the law. That is just plain wrong thinking. Whether it's a rogue soldier on the ground, a rogue general or a rogue leader of a country, if that person commits a war crime, or orders those under him or her to commit a war crime, those individuals need to be held accountable. Period. End of story. Simple.

    It is a sign of great ignorance when you see idiotic comments that criticize or belittle Bernie Sanders. He speaks the truth, not playing the political games that have ruined our once-great country. It is a sign of bad government that we still have the ridiculous electoral college.
  • Vote them out of office, every last one of these coconspirators in congress and the senate.
  • You are saying countries want these dangerous weapons but your country is supplying them so you cry on one hand but sell them on the other hand
  • @Mattcymple1
    Well articulated point. This man deserves a Noble Peace price
  • Thank you Senator Sanders for standing on the right side of humanity. Bless you and Free Palestine.
  • @dgbuds

    The same rules they bark, they themselves are breaking.
  • @annaponie
    Those old currupt politicians are already loosing their minds They are total embarrassment
  • @jewels11189
    Senator Bernie Sanders is an admirable human. He is logical, intelligent, full of integrity. He is the ONLY VOICE OF REASON!!!
  • No matter what mankind says or do remember we all have a day for our actions at God’s judgment day .
