The US presidential election is a toss-up between a ‘soft-on-Palestine’ Democrat whose boss has armed Israel’s genocide and an unabashedly pro-Israel Republican who doesn’t like war or war budgets.
This has led to the loss of crucial constituencies, including young voters, Arab and Muslim communities, and many progressives. Additionally, many younger and left-leaning Jewish voters “no longer see unequivocal support for Israel as a litmus test.”
While the Democratic party is well aware of this vulnerability, many wonder whether its candidate, Kamala Harris, can win back disappointed voters and bring a new approach to policy toward Gaza – at this late date.
Oh yes, do tell us all that power that the Vice president of the United States has over the actions of Israel.
Netanyahu won’t listen to President Biden but I’m sure that if Kamala sent him a snapchat he’d stop the bombing immediately.
The false equivalency you’re making is to use a word: asinine.
VP is useless position then, no influence whatsoever.
Force ceasefire and stop supporting funding of genocides, Israel is done without US backing.
I guess you will also say president has no power…
Congratulations on learning a bit of how the world works, the TV Show Veep only pointed that out explicitly, every single episode, for 6 seasons.
