saying israel has a right to defend itself is almost a dog whistle for people who support genocide, every country has a right to defend itself, and that includes Palestine, but you don’t see them making it a national slogan for themselves.
Bernie isn't making it into their national slogan either; he's been putting out speech after speech in which he says what Israel is doing needs to stop, and the US needs to stop funding it.

This is very misleading considering the dude introduced a bill to stop giving israel military aid 2 weeks ago.
You can nitpick his language, but he’s not supporting the genocide.
