Colorado Senator Michael Bennet is a proud supporter of Israel’s genocidal operation in Gaza, since AIPAC cut the checks to keep him in office. Two months into the Israel’s genocide of Palestine, on November 2023, Senator Bennet released a statement reading, “Even in a world already wracked by violence, the medieval forms of terrorism Hamas inflicted that day were brutal. In the wake of that horrific attack, Israel has no choice other than to defend itself and protect the Israeli people.” Senator Michael Bennet believes Israel had no choice but to murder over 39,000 Palestinians, including more than 15,000 innocent children to “defend themselves.” To make matters worse, Senator Michael Bennet approved to send Israel $3.8 billion in unconditional military aid 5 months later through the Strengthening of Israel-U.S. Alliance Act.
Malarkey Michael continued his statement saying, “As members of Hamas are using innocent Palestinian civilians as human shields, including at hospitals and safe zones.” Hospital staff working in Gaza have denied these claims that Hamas operates in and under the hospitals. The World Health Organization has reported that Israel has bombed healthcare facilities 167 times in Gaza since October 2023, killing over 198 medical staff. The bombing has also left 26 hospitals and 52 healthcare centers in Gaza out of service, including the destruction of 55 ambulances. Despite these horrific facts, Malarkey Michael has continued to spread lies in order to keep his pockets full with AIPAC money. Senator Michael Bennet has sold his soul to AIPAC, and is using U.S. tax dollars to fund Israel’s genocide of Gazans.
