Prodded into discussing Israel’s conduct during the Gaza conflict, and interrupted for a second time by an angry attendee, Sanders told the man: "Shut up. You don’t have the microphone."
The question that had preceded the eruption was from a woman who wanted to hear more from her senator about his position. He had recently abstained in a vote on Senate Resolution 498, which expressed support for Israel defending itself against "unprovoked rocket attacks" from Hamas. Sanders was one of the 21 members who didn't sign the unanimously passed resolution.
While his eventual response didn't satisfy Israel's most ardent supporters in the room that day, neither did it please the ardent Israel detractors, and the audience contained more of the latter group.

Yet Bernie handed over his mic to “black lives matter” hecklers...
“Shut up. You don’t have the microphone.”
...that would pretty sum up a Bernie administration.
I am betting he stands on their throat.
Sounds an awful lot like, "We won."
Socialist Sanders is just like anybody else playing on the devil’s side.
He hates Israel!
Bernie is a piece of arteriosclerosis-ridden trash.
Rats, you beat me to it.
"Shut up. You don't have the microphone."Clinton: Most ethical administration ever....that would pretty sum up a Bernie administration.
“Shut up. You don’t have the microphone.”
Sounds like the Bern is getting in touch with his inner curmudgeon.
As a socialist, Israel is of no help to him and his conquest of America
Good ole Jewish (secularist) Bernie Sanders is, I fear, as anti-Israel and anti-Netanyahu as the current denizen sitting in the White House, taking up space!
Self loathing jewish guy runs for po(tu)s. I’m sure there’s some sort of deep seated psych issues at play since it appears that a lot of American Jews do NOT support Israel.
I bet on his inner communist yearnings trying to get out.
socialist who writes of women secretly wanting to be gang-raped ...
Great minds and all...
Prodded into discussing Israel's conduct during the Gaza conflict, and interrupted for a second time by an angry attendee, Sanders told the man: "Shut up. You don't have the microphone."I don't hate that response -- but would point out, if the disruptors aren't already Hillary Trolls, they will dump Sanders regardless of his other political views.

If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Who knows, but in a Senate with 45 Democrats he was amongst the 21 who refused to support Israel's right to defend itself against aggression. That makes him a minority in the less than supportive of Israel party. He stands with the rocket launchers, the issue addressed in the resolution. Can Israel defend itself against rocket attacks against it's citizens? At best, above his pay grade.
