Sen. Bernie Sanders questioned the viability of a long-term ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, given the latter's intent to eliminate the state of Israel.
"What we need right now, the immediate task right now is to end the bombing, to end the horrific humanitarian disaster, to build, go forward with the entire world for a two-tier, two-state solution to the crisis, to give the Palestinian people hope," he said. Sanders's sentiment is seemingly at odds with other progressives usually aligned with him, many of whom have called for a complete ceasefire. One of the main advocates for a ceasefire on Capitol Hill is Rep. Rashida Tlaib , the first woman of Palestinian descent to serve in Congress, who accused President Joe Biden"support the genocide of the Palestinian people."
Biden administration officials have argued that a ceasefire would benefit Hamas because they would use that time to refit and plan future attacks.
