“I think it’s a good step forward,” Sanders told CNN’s “The Source.” “I think we’ve got to do even more.”During the interview, Sanders blasted Netanyahu, saying what he “has done in Gaza is unconscionable.”“In my view, Netanyahu should not have gotten a nickel so long as he continued this incredibly destructive war,” Sanders said. The U.S. has repeatedly urged Israel to reconsider but Netanyahu has vowed to press on. Biden last month signed a foreign aid package, including $26.4 billion in aid to Israel and $1 billion for humanitarian assistance in Gaza. The action, though, prompted the ire of Republicans, including House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Sanders earlier this week announced he would seek reelection for another term in office.
