Liberals are always dealing in the abstract. “Israel must stop oppressing Palestinians”

Ok who is going to make them? Then when the Palestinians stand up for themselves “this violence is abhorrent and must end immediately”

Ok how does it end? It’s like they have no concept of WHY people do things.

I have to think Bernie is smart enough to understand this, but American politics requires countless of these sorts of genuflections from those who want to be taken "seriously" by it. Can't talk about the Cubann blockade without being all "of course their highly popular democratically elected government is evil, but", etc etc.
