Why is Bernie Sanders against the oligarchs but not against the genocide? Why does he keep voting to support Israel?

Bernie Sanders voted to withhold weapons from Israel until they stop the genocide.
Could he have done more? Sure. But by American standards, he's one of the best people in congress for Palestine.
@BohemianBabe but the sales continue,! No review because like Bernie, the Congress voted to break the weapons sales into smaller amounts and take many votes! Bernie went along. Effectiveness is impossible for Dems! But it's plenty good peaceful enough for you?
@Roundandroundwego Sanders voted to halt weapons, but most other Democrats and Republicans did not.
Sanders also boycotted Netanyahu's speech in congress, citing his use of starvation against the Palestinians, which is considered genocide by the UN. Few politicians did that.
@BohemianBabe small efforts will have to be enough for you Dems. These results will be enough! With no third party or any progressives we will just be arming Israel to the final solution.
@Roundandroundwego I'm not saying it's enough, just saying that Sanders has voted against arming Israel, and he is one of the best politicians on this issue.
@BohemianBabe true, he speaks up clearly in opposition to the way things are going, quite often. He's somehow in the Democratic party at the same time.
