Yes. I did. You know what else is relevant? She wasn't there in that moment. READ WHAT I SAID.

He can't deliver that nuance to 36,000 people in the moment. Get out of here with your bear baiting. It's disingenuous.

You misunderstand. This is not about Bernie denying there is a genocide going on which he did a bit later in the video.

This is about Bernie directly contradicting international law, by ascibing a beligirent occupier the right to self defense which it does legally not have.

That is not nuanced, that is advocating for violation of international law on behalf of Israel.

That is great. Now we are both in agreement that Bernie Sanders advocates against international law.
