Trump Welcomed a War Criminal to the White House Sen. Bernie Sanders [View all]



Partial transcript from link ...

"0:00
As President Trump and members of
0:02
Congress roll out the red carpet for
0:04
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
0:06
Netanyahu, let us remember that
0:09
Netanyahu has been indicted as a war
0:11
criminal by the International Criminal
0:14
Court for overseeing the systematic
0:17
killing and starvation of civilians in
0:19
Gaza. These war crimes continue to this
0:24
day....


1:52
The Israeli newspaper Harets interviewed
1:55
Israeli soldiers posted to these
1:57
distribution points who say they are
2:00
ordered to shoot into crowds of
2:02
civilians who posed no risk. One soldier
2:06
said, quote, "It's a killing field.
2:08
Where I was stationed, between one and
2:10
five people were killed every day." End
2:13
quote. Netanyahu's extremist government
2:16
is also preventing baby formula from
2:19
reaching hospitals, meaning mothers who
2:22
have been starved for months and cannot
2:24
breastfeed their infants have no
2:26
alternative but to watch their children
2:29
slowly starve.
2:31
This is the man that Donald Trump and
2:34
Congress are welcoming this week. A war
2:38
criminal who will be remembered as one
2:41
of the monsters of modern history. Given
2:45
the corrupt nature of the American
2:47
political system, where billionaires are
2:49
able to buy elections and heavily
2:51
influence legislation, it will not be
2:54
easy to stop US military aid for the
2:57
Netanyahu government. But that is
3:00
exactly what the American people want us
3:03
to do and that's what we've got to do
3:06
together. Let's make it happen. Thank
3:09
you."
