Traverse City, Michigan - Documentary filmmaker Michael Moore has lambasted Senate Democrats for voting against a resolution to halt the shipment of weapons to Israel during its war on Gaza.

In a recent post on his Substack, Moore shared an image showing photos of all the Senate Democrats that voted against a resolution introduced by Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont that sought to block three new shipments of US weapons to Israel.

"What better way to celebrate losing the November 5 election than by continuing to ignore the will of the American people who oppose Israel's war on Gaza," Moore wrote.

"Nothing says to the public 'we hear you' better than the Democratic Party announcing that 'we're going to kill even more children in Palestine now with your/our American tax dollars.'"

Moore went on to argue that if the party continues supporting Israel's efforts, they may lose more elections in the near future.

"[The Senators'] behavior in supporting this aggression will only cost them more elections," Moore said. "Voters under 45 and people of color combined (making up nearly half the electorate), have no interest in war, and would rather our government spend our money on our schools, our elderly, and our broken health care system.

"Time to cut Bibi off," he added.

Polling shows that Moore's views are more in line with the American people than the Senators who voted against the bill.

According to a Pew Research Center poll conducted a year after Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, 31% said they believed Israel's assault on Gaza has gone too far, while 20% labeled it the right approach.

Many Americans are also worried about the war growing, with 44% saying they are extremely concerned that it will expand to other countries in the region, while 40% are extremely concerned the US military will become directly involved.

Over the past year, Democrats have become more likely to hold the opinion that Israel has gone too far, while the amount of Republicans who say they haven't gone far enough has fallen.

With continued aid from the US, Israel has killed at least 44,429 people in Gaza, according to the territory's health ministry – though the true toll is believed to be even higher.
