Seems pretty epicly pointless to try to force a vote against Israel's interests in the US congress. It will be unanimously shot down, like every other bill that Israel has any interest in.. Sanders know this. So why is he pretending a vote in congress is the big goal that we need to make noise about?
Sanders wont even call the war on Palestine a genocide. If he wants to actually do something effective here he should be forcing AIPAC to be registered as a foreign lobby, like JFK tried to do right before he was assassinated. Otherwise Bernie is just wasting everyone's time, and keeping the left busy yelling for a vote to happen that we have absolutely zero chance of winning.

oh hey so this is actually correct
Even if we ignore the fact that he can easily coax our useless congress into agreeing, the entire government has done nothing but dance around this requirement ever since the end of WWII. You won't see a congressional declaration of war unless its literally WWIII.
We haven't followed that law in so long though
uhhh ok sure but that doesn't mean loopholes exist
and like loopholes the founders knew abt, like its by design that the POTUS moves the military arround
to say that this is illegal isnt sensible, you might be against it but still

2/3 of Congress is owned by AIPAC so it wouldn't make a difference anyway.
Taco’s a bitch, he’s leaking all this to get leverage to make a deal. He’ll pussy out and Iran knows it. They’re playing the same games with him but from a position of knowing he’s full of shit
I think most of those congressional powers have been eroded for a very long time.
As soon as I see who wrote it, my mind reads it as "cleah."
Well, we're waiting, any day now, determine away you useless feckless fuck.
