Sen. Fetterman Defends Israeli Pager Attacks on Hezbollah

Fetterman supports Israel's controversial operation, dismisses Sanders' criticism of Netanyahu's handling of ceasefire talks.

Sen. John Fetterman expressed strong support for Israel's recent attacks on Hezbollah's communication devices in Lebanon, stating he 'loves' the operation.
The attacks, which involved explosives planted in pagers and walkie-talkies, resulted in 37 deaths and over 2,700 injuries, including civilians and diplomats.
Fetterman's stance contrasts sharply with Sen. Bernie Sanders, who accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of sabotaging ceasefire negotiations to maintain power.
The operation has intensified the Israel-Hezbollah conflict, with Hezbollah launching rockets into northern Israel and Israel conducting extensive airstrikes in Lebanon.
Progressive Democrats, including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar, condemned the attacks, citing violations of international humanitarian law and the risk of escalating the conflict.
