Bruhhhhhhh why the fuck couldnt you say that like 1 or 2 months ago? Why last minute?
In her defense she did say that a couple of times:
But then at times she also said they wont be supporting arms embargo on Israel. Still orders of magnitude better than a lunatic who says he is a actively supporting Israel on doing whatever they want to do:
The fact that some people equate these two candidates based on their Gaza politics is insane.
Kind of a day late dollar short scenario
I mean I already voted for Harris because I don't wanna die in a Trump Brand Concentration Camp, but, she really couldn't have said this any fucking sooner?
She had to wait until the day before the election so that AIPAC doesn't have enough time to ratfuck her for it.
Unfortunately, that's how things work here if you're critical of Israel in any way.
Trump Brand Concentration Camp is very apt. It succinctly expresses that the whole thing exists only for his personal monetary gain and he's escalating to extremes for his grift.
And I am a prince from Nigeria who will give you money if you send me your information
If you just had said that two months ago, it would have saved me so mando idiotic conversations...
Just lie, these assholes don't really care. -US politicians.
What is even the point of doing anything you promise. Just look at all the shit donald trump didn't do and the toughest questions he had to answer was what his hair routine is.
I'm sure Netanyahu also wants it to end right after he gets his sadistic goals.
As of mid 2024 the lowest estimate I found was >7000 Palestinian children dead, as compared to a highest estimate of <100 Israeli children dead. Any child dead is too many but it shows that this is not a war, it's a slaughter.
I voted for Harris because any alternative is asinine, but we should expect that the arms shipments to Israel will continue unless we pressure our politicians.
Trump would do the same thing but in his case it means letting Bibi level Gaza and then buying some land to build a tacky resort on it.
Apparently no one in the comments has been paying attention. She's been saying these same lines about Gaza since the convention speech.
Bibi hates her, so that’s a good start.
Considering that him and Trump talk all the time, I would say he isn't excited for Harris. He knows when the war is over, he is fucked. Remember, he tried to remove their supreme court before the war.
I've already voted for her, but I don't believe her.
This is a vague plea for peace without any indication of what things she believes (and more importantly, publicly acknowledges) would be "in her power". Is the limit of her power sternly worded letters, arms embargoes, or intervention? Because I'm pretty sue she's not opening the door for US peacekeeping troops in Gaza, though that would be in her power (at least for a short term).
But like, with Harris we get to see if she's willing to do anything meaningful, and maybe as public sentiment continues to turn against Israel she'll be embarrassed enough to do something. It's not a hopeful position to shoot for, but it is technically better than the alternative, and there other issues at play where the difference is not so limited.
We're not in a vacuum. Two things can be true. She can honestly be pro Israel but also hope the turds that are the Likud Party lose power, work to end the genocide, and find a two-state solution - that is, if Hamas and Bibi will allow it, which they won't.
This binary all-or-nothing, zero sum bs is just toxic and ignorant.
Step 1: FOLLOW US LAW AND STOP GIVING THEM WEAPONS
Let's see if she ever gets this far. I am not holding my breath
It's completely in her power to stop whitewashing a genocide and creating false equivalences by calling it a "war".
Seems a little too little too late for it to move the needle much, especially given how much early voting has happened. Harris’s position on Israel has been so bizarre, pretty sure Israel has even been actively working against Democrats this whole time anyways.
