Looks like AIPAC got control of them...
Bernie Sanders town hall gives US party line when confronted about Gaza:

Warren has been on the receiving end of sporadic criticism over the years from progressives for a hawkish if hesitant approach to foreign policy, which she appears to prefer to avoid in favor of domestic economic policy.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), another favorite of progressives, has also come under fire from his base for his defense of Israel. A recent town hall got testy, with constituents and the senator exchanging harsh words, and Sanders ending on a note of resignation. "This is a very depressing and difficult issue. This has gone on for 60 bloody years," he said. "If you're asking me, do I have a magical solution? I don't. And you know what, I doubt very much that you do."
Well it looks like a lot of people are disappointed and no longer are in support of either politicians:
--She had my vote locked up. Until now. Sorry, cant go for IDF propaganda.
--Boy, did her stock go down with me. I turned away from Hillary six years ago because she was way too pro-Israel. As it turns out Obama hasn't been substantially better but unlike Hillary, that was unclear at the time. I wonder if there will ever be a credible candidate that I will agree with on this subject.
--Yes, mine too! I thought that she was going to be a True American. It seems that AIPAC can change water into wine! There is a word for when a foreign Power, or entity can shape, and control the politic, and the destiny of a sovereign nation - it's called OCCUPATION!
--Well she just lost my vote.
--Just lost my vote. Unhook your purse from AIPAC and put your big girl shoes on if you want to really succeed in the long term.
