This isn't really a big news story, Bernie has been doing this pretty consistently. Yes, he was doing it under Biden too. Yes, this is purely performative, it won't have enough votes. No, this isn't antisemitic.
It won't get enough votes, but it will force people to vote and show who they really are.
He did not criticize Biden during his entire genocide. Bernie supports the actions of Israel
He stuck (and is sticking) to the party line way too much for way too long, which is something you can criticize him for, but "Bernie supports the actions of Israel" ain't it.
Perhaps, but he might as well be considering his consistent voting record funding Israel
Isn't this the same guy now pushing to block arms sales to Israel?
He will still vote to give them funding in the general funding bill, so it's meaningless
