“Monster of modern history” — Bernie Sanders didn’t mince words. And why should he? Binyamin Netanyahu, the architect of Gaza’s annihilation, is now being rolled out the red carpet again, this time at Donald Trump's White House. It’s a familiar sight: mass graves still warm, but Washington’s knees still bruised from decades of bowing to Tel Aviv.
Let’s not pretend this is shocking. The United States has never held a moral compass when it comes to Israel. It holds a leash — and often, it’s Israel dragging America by it.
While doctors in Gaza are performing amputations without anesthesia, while children rot under the rubble of homes targeted by precision-guided U.S.-funded bombs, the architect of it all is shaking hands in Washington. A statesman, they call him. A partner in democracy. A man who “shares our values.” Indeed, if your values are collective punishment, ethnic cleansing, and permanent occupation, then yes, Netanyahu is your perfect dinner guest.
Bernie Sanders — a Jewish senator, mind you, not some faraway radical — publicly declared:
“Netanyahu is a war criminal. He has led a right-wing, racist government that has committed atrocities in Gaza.” (CNN, July 2025)
But what happens? Trump greets Netanyahu with open arms. Biden says nothing. Democrats look the other way. And the American media? They are too busy wondering whether Bibi’s visit will “reshape the geopolitical chessboard.” The only thing he’s reshaped is Gaza — into a graveyard.
Let’s rewind the hypocrisy tape:
- 1982: Israel invades Lebanon. Thousands die in Sabra and Shatila. Reagan pauses aid briefly — then triples it.
- 2008–09, 2012, 2014, 2021, 2023–25: Gaza burned repeatedly. American jets, American bombs, American silence.
- 2023–2025: Over 62,000 Palestinians dead, most of them civilians. UN experts, Amnesty, Human Rights Watch, and ICC investigators cry “genocide.” Washington? Still delivering weapons… with express shipping.
All while chanting: “Israel has the right to defend itself.” From what? From the children playing in the courtyards they then drone?
The International Criminal Court has moved to indict Netanyahu and his defense minister Yoav Gallant. The U.N. has declared this war "a text-book case of genocide." The World Court has ruled Israel must halt its military offensive, citing irreparable harm to Palestinian civilians. (Sources listed below.)
But somehow, all this matters less than Bibi’s photo op in the Rose Garden.
This is America’s moral schizophrenia:
- Accuse Russia of war crimes for shelling Ukraine.
- Sanction Sudan for killing civilians in Darfur.
- Cry over Myanmar’s Rohingya genocide.
- But send $17 billion to Israel during a live-streamed genocide.
It’s not foreign policy. It’s religious devotion — a bipartisan, blindfolded, God-bless-Israel cult that exceeds loyalty, reason, and even conscience.
The world sees it. The oppressed feel it. And the future will remember it.
When genocide has sponsors, justice must have memory.
When the White House embraces monsters, history must name them.
America didn't just lose its soul in Gaza. It auctioned it — and Bibi Netanyahu signed the check.
