Bernie Sanders Wins the Foreign Policy Debate

[link:https://www.thenation.com/article/palestine-debate-bernie-sanders/|

“I am pro-Israel, but we must treat the Palestinians with the dignity they deserve,” the Vermont senator declared during the debate.

By John Nichols

The Democrats had a brief but substantive foreign policy debate Wednesday night—and Bernie Sanders gave it scope and meaning by centering Palestinian rights in a way major presidential candidates rarely do.

Joe Biden seemed ready to dominate with his “this guy has no idea what he’s doing” critique of President Trump’s relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin and with his rumination on how North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un had said Biden should be “beaten to death with a stick.”

“Other than that, you like him,” joked Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders. “Other than that, I like him,” replied the former vice president, who remains the front-runner in most polls. It was a pleasant exchange, of the sort that usually concludes the moment when a Democratic debate turns toward international affairs.

Any attempt by the Republican partisans to make what they did justifiable because of anything Biden did is tossed by the witnesses as nonsense.
