Bernie Sanders has laid into the Israeli government for sending Covid vaccines abroad instead of giving them to Palestinians. MORE:
Palestinian people are living under Israeli occupation. Israel should be giving Palestinian people the vaccines they need, just like they've given them to Israeli people. Giving vaccines to other countries before Palestinians is inhumane.
Instead of going to Palestinians, the extra vaccine doses are going to countries that have recognized Israeli control of Jerusalem.
