In speech recorded for left-wing party Meretz event marking 50 years to the Israeli occupation, Bernie Sanders says peace means security for both Israelis and Palestinians

• Senator Bernie Sanders bid for the U.S. presidency may be history, but the progressive politician is still making his voice heard when it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, declaring that the occupation must end in a video message to Israels left-wing Meretz party.

• We are now in the 50th year of Israels occupation, an occupation which denies basic Palestinian rights while failing to deliver Israel real security," said Sanders.

• In the video, Sanders also praised Meretz as "Israels most prominent political organization that stands for equality, security, democracy and justice, ideals that the Vermont senator said he shares.

• Like Sanders, he said, Meretz also tells the truth, and the truth is that the occupation represents the greatest existential and material threat to the state of Israel.
