Democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) said during an interview over the weekend that Israel couldn’t have a “permanent ceasefire” with Hamas because Hamas is a genocidal terrorist group that is committed to “a permanent war” against Israel.

Sanders made the remarks when asked by CBS News host Margaret Brennan during a Sunday interview on “Face The Nation” about far-Left members of the House of Representatives who are pushing for a permanent ceasefire.

“So progressives like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Rashida Tlaib have been clear and calling for a ceasefire,” Brennan said. “You’ve taken some flack because you have not. The United States government is opposing a ceasefire as well, and they’re isolated at the (United Nations) on that point.”
