Need more context here. Bernie speaks regularly against Israel, usually to huge cheers from the crowd. So there must be a reason for this and it's not "Bernie's trying to shut down talk about Palestine"

Smells like disinformation post.

It is. I’ve noticed industry on here several times. At least on this issue they seem more interested in stirring the pot than genuine discussion. They consistently clip quotes and videos just outside of relevant context then deny there is any when others call for it. When confronted with the context by others they deny that it changes anything at all.
