Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders said Sunday he doesn’t know that a ceasefire is possible in the Israel-Hamas war with “an organization like Hamas” involved.

“I don’t know how you can have a ceasefire, (a) permanent ceasefire, with an organization like Hamas, which is dedicated to turmoil and chaos and destroying the state of Israel,” Sanders told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union” Sunday.

    You missed half the article.

    Correct on funding, with the aim to provide a glimpse of a better life and work permits - for its people, not the organization in control.

    I do find in interesting that there is a thing on Israel funding Hamas while at the same time issues that Israel stopped providing power and food.

      I’d be absolutely fine if Israel didn’t have Gaza under total blockade and THEN not giving aid. Sure.

      But no, if Israel insists on total control (I think is counter productive, but whatever), they gain total responsibility.

      You can’t just not feed your open air prison full of refugees (of your own making).
