“Stop bombing Gaza. Resume the cease-fire. Work toward a permanent peace.”
Unlike Obama, the leftist alternatives to him were always constructs, as much invented by the Left as of the Left.
Sen. Bernie Sanders was a more conventional old-school Marxist until he suddenly became famous and his base forced him to pay homage to identity politics, endorse open borders (both things he used to oppose) and hold AOC’s purse.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren fancied herself an old-school liberal socialist wonk after being a Republican and libertarian for a while. One way to measure how far she’s come is to look at her back in 2014 when she was just exploring the possibility of taking on Hillary.
Warren said Hamas has attacked Israel “indiscriminately,” but with the Iron Dome defense system, the missiles have “not had the terrorist effect Hamas hoped for.” When pressed by another member of the crowd about civilian casualties from Israel’s attacks, Warren said she believes those casualties are the “last thing Israel wants.”
“But when Hamas puts its rocket launchers next to hospitals, next to schools, they’re using their civilian population to protect their military assets. And I believe Israel has a right, at that point, to defend itself,” Warren said, drawing applause.
Fast forward to 2023, and Warren is complaining that Facebook is censoring Hamas supporters, and just tweeted that…
“Netanyahu & his right-wing war cabinet have created a humanitarian catastrophe, killing thousands of Palestinian civilians. Israel needs leadership that will bring the hostages home, not wage months of war. Stop bombing Gaza. Resume the cease-fire. Work toward a permanent peace.”
Bernie Sanders has said similar things, but he’s refused (thus far) pressure from the Left to call for a “ceasefire”. Why?
“Lastly, Hamas has been very clear, both before its barbaric attack on October 7th and after that attack, that their goal is perpetual warfare and the destruction of Israel. Just last week a spokesman for Hamas, Mr. Taher El-Nounou, told the New York Times, “I hope that the state of war with Israel will become permanent on all the borders, and that the Arab world will stand with us.” I am not quite sure how you negotiate a ceasefire with a terrorist organization that is dedicated to perpetual war.”
Sanders has become more vocally anti-Israel throughout the months after Oct 7, and has called for no military support for Israel, but so far he hasn’t endorsed the big lie of a ceasefire in which Hamas gets to attack Israel while the Jews don’t get to fight back.
Warren has.
Sen. Warren has called for a “ceasefire”. There was one in play before Oct 7. And during the humanitarian truce that she endorsed so loudly, Hamas carried out a terrorist attack that killed a pregnant woman, a school worker and an elderly Rabbi.
Not only doesn’t Sen. Warren care, but she’s urging “work toward a permanent peace.” With whom? Hamas.

Liawatha demands more rape torture murder. She thinks being a senator from one of the smaller US states makes her some kind of international player. Stay in your lane and harvest and cultivate some vegetables and plants for us, heap um big liar.
William Kemmler says
And my reply to Warren and all like her is that if Hamas didn’t want a war with Israel then Hamas should not have invaded Israeli territory on Oct. 7th and brutally slaughtered Israeli women and children. And now the only reason they want a “cease fire” is because Hamas is having its ass handed to them by the IDF. But they should have thought of that before they allowed Iran to goad them into the worst decision Hamas has ever made. There will be no peace in the Middle East until Hamas and its terrorist supporters are eliminated.
Lez Bloom says
Well said William.

Transmaster says
According to the IDF they are killing Hamas terrorists in job lots every day, as many as a 100 or so at a time. As they capture more and more Hamas foot soldiers and they spill their guts to IDF interrogators, plus all of the documents they are finding in the tunnels a map of these tunnels is being developed. Now when the IDF come under fire from a building they don’t storm the building a JADAM, or an guided artillery strikes takes out the whole building.

Strange how these creatures didn’t tell Zelensky to negotiate a “peace” with Russia. On day one. Of course if they did that, there wouldn’t have been all that money sloshing around, here, there and everywhere . . .

Russia was out to destroy Ukraine, as Hamas is out ot destroy Israel.
Marz says
Hamas may be well out to destroy Israel but Russia wanted a neutral Ukraine, not its destruction. Just like the US didn’t want Russian missiles close to its borders, likewise the Russians didn’t want NATO missiles so close to its borders. The US was prepared to go to war over the issue, is it really a surprise that Russia would too?

Yes…sit around fire and smoke peace pipe, swap wampum.

Warren is a colossal fool and a phony. Unfortunately, the West in our era is led in politics, religion, the media, academia, big business—even sports franchises—by a great many colossal fools and phonies.
More to the point—specifically to the point—as the West goes so goes the rest of humanity because the West, even with its faults, has demonstrated the way, as no other civilizations and societies have, to a better world.
But the West is presently being destroyed from without (the lesser problem) and from within (the greater problem). Respecting the latter “destruction,” this is due to colossal fools and phones like Elizabeth Warren.
In microcosm, Warren is symptomatic of what is so wrong with Western leadership in our time. A given. Clearly. Beyond obvious. Immensely tragic. Completely unnecessary. What a waste.

There can be no peace with maniacs who want to kill you. Perhaps the Senator would go to Hamas and negotiate a surrender and disarm Hamas and the other jihadis. Then we can all gather around a bonfire in the middle of Tel Aviv and sing kumbayah.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren Demands Israel Negotiate ‘Peace’ With Hamas

Because what is more indicative of peace than kidnapping and murdering civilians? sarc/off Warren is a moral idiot.
abu taleb says
Why don’t people tell Hamas to release its hostages and let Israel capture the criminals who were responsible for the terrorist attack, after that, I am sure Israel will do the cease fire. Why only tell Israel what to do but not tell Hamas what todo?
tgusa says
You lost me when you asked “Why don’t people tell Hamas to release its hostages”…Seriously, you are saying that here to experienced Jihad Watchers? Lets get honest about the Israel vs islam struggle because it is not just there in that area it is everywhere they are all over the world. It is not geographic it is not climate nor cultural, it is, them, everywhere. Pick a spot on the Earth, any spot that has what the media calls, unrest, which is the medias version of rape torture murder, and all around (debased as you can be) universal carnage. Yes, anywhere and everywhere on the planet that they are present. So what is your proposition to that?
tgusa says
If this rotten disgusting lying fake in everything bitch from Massachusetts wants to subject the women of her state to the same things Israeli women had to endure perhaps the voters in Massachusetts need to reevaluate their choice in leadership.

Yes, Goofy.
She should also have to take – and pass – a written test.
Short answer, multiple-choice, matching, etc.

Warren has been lying throughout her life, you can’t believe anything this women says. Sad to say but I’ve known several Harvard graduates and none were vary impressive, but their main point was always Harvard. Saying they were grads. from Harvard bought them status but they lacked totally in common sense or ethics.
James Lincoln says
OLD GUY,
A degree from Harvard will soon be more of a liability than an asset.
Serious employers do not want privileged, lazy, woke, anti-Semitic grads.

Warren needs to read the Quran verse 9:29 to see what peace with Muslims requires. All it takes is the surrender of Israel and the humble submission of whatever the Muslims decide is the proper Jizya along with acceptance of Muslims as rulers and overlords of the every aspect of the lives of the Jews. In fact, if Warren wants the United States to have peace too she needs to convince the U.S. to accept the same fate …. which her hero, Joe Biden, is happily doing. Let’s face it; Warren, Biden and the rest of the Democrats are all traitors and idiots who need to be “peacefully” voted out of office. Dear God, I hope we can soon rid ourselves of leaders such as the ones we have now.
