Cowards on Capitol Hill

Somehow, I wasn't at all surprised to see this disgraceful headline tonight:

Bernie Sanders blasts Netanyahu invite to Congress, refuses to attend speech by 'war criminal'

"Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said he will not attend remarks by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to a joint session of Congress, calling him a "war criminal."

"It is a very sad day for our country that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been invited – by leaders from both parties – to address a joint meeting of the United States Congress," Sanders said in a statement on Saturday. 

"Netanyahu was officially invited to speak to Congress on Friday in a letter signed by the Republican and Democratic leaders in both the House and Senate. "

------------

No, it's a very sad day for our country when you have people like Bernie Sanders representing the people of this country.  Sanders, "The Squad", and all the other antisemites in the House and the Senate should just stay home. They aren't intelligent enough and compassionate enough to occupy the same space with the leader of Israel.

And I hope there's plenty of extra security that day, because you know that every pro-Hamas, anti-Israel lunatic will be out in full force, and I hate to think of the consequences.
