Well that's certainly a lot more nuanced. It's not unreasonable to oppose Hamas. In the current conflict obviously the bigger "bad guy" is obviously Israel. But for there to be a stable peace in the region Bernie is absolutely right, a two state solution (however unlikely that looks now) would have been the only solution, with peace enforced by the more powerful neighbors and neither Hamas nor the current genocidal Israeli government in charge of their states. Hell in a functioning world, the whole of Israel would be disarmed and become a UN protectorate or something.

Two months into a genocide Bernie Sanders votes against a ceasefire and in favor of shipping weapons to Israel.
