Why do members of the Democratic Party have such a hard time saying Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal?

Israel has committed war crimes. They have committed a genocide. Why can't they start with facts?

And then from there discuss what policies beyond that support, no support.

A lot of people in the Democratic establishment cannot say this.

And you may remember I had that viral moment with Senator Cory Booker last year regarding

this issue.

And now he's gone on Pod Save American.

Our friend John Levitt has asked him a very similar

question. Play the clip. To call Benjamin Netanyahu say a war criminal. What happens if you do?

What goes, what changes by just saying, I believe Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal. And

that signals what our sort of moral parameters are for the kind of leadership in Israel

we view as acceptable.

This is not a political test for me.

Benjamin Antenjahou is a horrible person who enabled October 7 and has failed to take accountability.

Remember, he knew about the Qataris funding

this horrific terrorist organization, Hamas. He knew about that. He allowed that funding to continue.

It's failed in that sense. He has within his own administration people that are committing

atrocities right now in the West Bank, as we've seen over these last few weeks, I have no problem calling him out and saying that he should be held accountable for any crimes that

he's committed.

My focus and has been consistently before October 7th is trying to be a force as a member

of the Foreign Relations Committee.

Okay.
