    Harris is fully on board with the genocide.

    Her husbands take on the anti-genocide protests: https://www.politico.com/news/2023/11/04/doug-emhoff-anti-semitism-college-campuses-00125384

    If she actually were against the genocide this would be the best time to speak up to secure the muslim vote and yet https://www.jpost.com/us-elections/article-811309

    In fact she literally tells protesters to shut up https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/harris-vs-the-hecklers

      I read the articles you posted. 1- Doug Emhoff was speaking on the lack of distinction between Jewish people and the actions of the Israeli government. This is an actual problem, and he was citing instances of bullying based on this confusion without supporting the Israeli government. Unless I’m mistaken?

      2- that’s an article for the Jerusalem Post. One look at the comments tells me that she’s not supporting Israel. She advocates for a two state solution and says that the conditions the Palestinians are in is unacceptable.

      3- I think this could have been handled more tactfully.

        1. Doug Emhoff is suggesting that the anti-genocide protests are motivated by antisemitism. His main points is to deligitimate these protests, not to draw a distinction between Jewish people and Israeli.

        2. Harris’ words are complete nothing-burger bolstering Biden’s appearances of giving aid, or calling for aid or getting real angry with Netanyahu for the 16th time. There is nothing of substance there. “Please give the victims of your genocide some more food please?”. Right now on the campaign trail is the time to call for actual action or promising it, to say something against the genocide and yet she is silent. I shared the article to show what she isn’t saying.

        3. Why is her response to “We won’t vote for genocide” not distancing herself from Israel’s crime, like instinctually? They’re accusing her of being part of a genocide and instead of saying “woah I’m not part of that” her response is “well guess who would be worse!”.

        There is nothing to suggest that Harris wouldn’t do exactly what Biden is doing. She can’t even say she would do anything to stop Israel. Not even while she is trying to win voters on the campaign trail, a time when politicians makes the grandest promises. It’s wishful thinking to believe that anything would change about the US stance to Israel and it’s crimes once she is elected.
