Sanders, who is Jewish, said during the Democrat Presidential debate that it is important to support Israel, but that American foreign policy should also be focused on the plight of Palestinians.
"We must be pro-Palestinian as well," Sanders said.
Sanders slammed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been a strong ally of Mr. Trump.
Citing the expansion of Israeli settlements during Netanyahu's tenure, and pointing to his legal problems, Sanders said, "we must understand that right now in Israel we have leadership under Netanyahu who has recently as you know been indicted for bribery, who, in my view, is a racist."
Biden also condemned Netanyahu, although in softer terms.
"Bibi Netanyahu and I know each other well. He knows that I think what he's doing is outrageous," Biden said.
