We turn to Kamala Harris’s position on Israel’s war on Gaza, which many are calling a genocide. After she was asked about calls to condition U.S. arms shipments to Israel by CNN reporter Dana Bash, Harris refused to consider halting the flow of weapons and instead affirmed her support of Israel. This position violates both federal and international law, argues Palestinian American political analyst Yousef Munayyer, and, coupled with her campaign’s denial of a requested Palestinian American speaking spot from “uncommitted” voters at the DNC, he warns that “Harris could be worse than Biden” when it comes to U.S. support for Israel.
The way Harris refuses to court her own voting base never ceases to disturb me
Ftfy.
Its not on voters. Voters will do what they will do. Its on politicians who we vote for. Also I will be voting for Harris and also protesting at every event where I can to demand this apartheid and genocide to end.
Stop making Israel an election issue and worry about your own damn country. If you want to vote on Israel’s future move there, become a citizen and vote.
But you live in the u.s, put down your world police badge and vote on your country’s matters.
If not a single one of your leaders and candidates supports an issue, IT’S NOT AN ELECTION ISSUE.
Funny, suddenly you all care that your money is being used to kill people. You cheered it when it was my people. Now you morally grandstand and wonder why some of us think you Americans are hypocrites
Is everyone from your country exactly alike in political opinion? No? Neither are americans. I have been actively anti-war and anti-bombing since I’ve been an adult why are you making such bold assumptions based on 1 post I made which was ANTI-WAR ANTI-US EMPIRE ANTI-BOMBING
The problem is that there are candidates that do support ending the genocide, like Claudia De La Cruz. The issue is that the US is a dictatorship that cannot be saved electorally, we can’t simply vote in good candidates like Claudia De La Cruz, because the State is scientifically engineered to prevent positive change for the Working Class and maximize profits for the Bourgeoisie.
Literally. As far as I can tell, our country isn’t in the grandest state either, so why don’t we spend the time improving it instead of meddling with other countries conflicts? Lives are are at stake, and here we are debating and commenting about it like it’s another meme on Lemmy. I don’t care which side is the bad guy, but we’re not helping if the country is about to split in half over our political views.

So you agree we should stop sending them money, weapons and protection?
YOUR TAX DOLLARS WILL BE USED TO MURDER CHILDREN AND THERE’S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT NOW GO VOTE FOR THE GENOCIDER LIKE A GOOD CITIZEN

America funding Genocide isn’t an issue for you? Your moral compass works differently to mine
It is. It’s why they’re so adamant about silence.

Cool we’ll just go ahead with Boycott, Divest, and Sanction then right? After all this is our country and we can decide where our tax dollars go.
Right?
