US complicit in Israeli war on Gaza: Senator Sanders

Tehran, IRNA – Bernard Sanders, senior US senator from Vermont, has said that Washington is complicit in the devastating war on the Gaza Strip through financing the war machine of the Israeli regime.

According to Sama Palestine news agency, "One of the worst humanitarian disasters in modern history is now unfolding before our eyes in Gaza today, right now, and we, as the government of the United States, are complicit," Sanders noted.

Asked about the United States Congress to spend an “award” for the Israeli regime to “annihilate” thousands more Palestinians, he replied, "The US Congress is prepared to spend another $14 billion on military aid to Netanyahu's right-wing government. Fourteen billion dollars more. And 10 billion of this money is totally unrestricted and will allow Netanyahu to buy more of the bombs, he has literally used to flatten Gaza and to kill thousands and thousands of children."

The American senator said that 1.7 million people have been displaced in Gaza and thousands of children are at risk of starvation. Sanders warned that 2 million people must not suffer from hunger over some accusations against the staff of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).

He also referred to the massacre of over 28,000 Palestinians and the injury of over 62,000 others in the Gaza war, mostly women and children, which are the facts and figures that are “unacceptable.”
