    Okay cool, but it would still be electoral suicide if she goes all out, so she can’t do what you want her to do. She would have absolutely no power to actually do anything about it if she doesn’t win the election, and Trump has already said that he wants Israel to “win its war on terror” and imprison anti-war protesters, so Harris losing the election is decidedly the worst possible outcome for Palestine.

    So it’s time to put aside whatever ideals you want to demand, and start accepting that Harris is leaps and bounds ahead of most other politicians on Israel/Palestine, and she’s already making it part of her campaign in a way that Biden never did.

    These are critical moments. Before throwing criticism at the only person standing between Democracy and Dictatorship, consider everything that is at stake in this election, and ask yourself if it’s worth the effort to be fighting Harris when there’s literally a Neo-Nazi party trying to destroy the foundations of our country.

      Huh? I’m agreeing with you completely - I mentioned the House vote to help illustrate why Harris can’t go hard against the Israel lobby.
