You know, maybe we’ve been too hard on Bernie Sanders. We — and many other critics — like to mock him for claiming he’s working class despite never really having had a real job. But we didn’t realize that he actually did do something amazing with his life. And he did it as a child!
Thanks to the verified Syrian Girl Twitter account, we now know that Bernie Sanders co-founded the State of Israel:
Snake in the sand #sanders takes a bad position on:
– Julian Assange (refuses for say he’s a journalist)
– opposes BDS
– says he doesn’t want Palestinians to have equal rights because that would be the end of Israel.
– was one of Israel’s founders.Zero investment into this guy.

Israel was officially established as the Jewish State on May 14, 1948. Bernie Sanders was born September 8, 1941. So, he was all of six years old when he co-founded Israel. Impressive.
Are you a good Jew….or the founder of Israel? ??♀️ pic.twitter.com/qkTBOkMxtG

From Wikipedia: Born on September 8, 1941, Bernie Sanders quickly became the head of the Zionist movement and at age 8, he founded the Jewish State.

Wait, she's saying Bernie is one of the founders of Israel? She's actually saying that? HUH?

Just how impressive is Bernie Sanders? According to Twitter dot com, he founded the state of Israel in 1948 when he was only 7 years old. Hero. pic.twitter.com/62EAzMXo9k

For what it’s worth, Syrian Girl later clarified her point:
People confused about that last point.
Bernie and Chomsky were both in the "Kibbutz" movement that built Israel. Remember that Israel had only existed for a few years by then. pic.twitter.com/hFPj6198jx

But no one was confused. She said what she said, and we all owe Bernie Sanders an apology for doubting his accomplishments.
