Senate Speech on U.S. Complicity in Gaza Conflict and Arms Sales to Israel

Published | Video Starts at 04:57

Let us be clear. Prime Minister Netanyahu's racist and extremist government has waged an all out barbaric war against the Palestinian people and made life unlivable in Gaza. Within Gaza's population of just 2.2 million people, more than 50,000 have been killed and more than 113,000 have been injured, 60% of whom are women, children and elderly people. That is 7.4% of the population of Gaza killed or wounded, 7.4% in a year and a half. (04:57–05:19)

CLAIM
