Kamala Harris' record on Israel: left of Biden

While Kamala Harris sounds like Joseph Biden regarding Israel, the truth is, she is further to the left than President Mumbles, and is not really a supporter of the Jewish State, in spite of her being married to a Jew. In fact, she sounds a lot more sympathetic to the Palestinians in Gaza than the Israelis Hamas slaughtered on Oct, 7.

While Joseph Biden has referred to himself as a Zionist, an Hispanic, a Black church-goer, and a freedom marcher back in the 60s, Harris has been referred to as the "Border Czar," a prosecutor, a state attorney general, and a pot smoker. In Biden's case, none of his references are true, except for his support of Israel, but in Harris' case, the only thing she succeeded at was smoking pot. She failed as a border czar and was a terrible prosecutor. As an attorney general for California, she allowed prisoners to stay beyond their sentences in order to provide labor for the state. Her position as Vice President was bestowed upon her as a result of DEI and a promise by Biden to have a "Black woman" as his running mate.

 Since the October 7 massacre of Israelis by Hamas, Harris has become a tough critic of Israel. If Israel was losing the war, this would not likely be the case, but the Jewish State is fighting back with the ferocity of a lion and the anti-Semites don't like that. They would rather see the Jews obediently accept their fate meted out by jihadis whose core of beliefs, taught to them as children, is to hate the Jews and eliminate them. Once that is accomplished, they can work on eliminating Christians. 

In December, White House national security spokesman John Kirby said of Harris' role regarding the war in Gaza: 

“She’ll certainly be making it clear, as we’ve said many times before, that we believe that Palestinian people need a vote and a voice in their future, and that they need governance in Gaza that will look after their aspirations and their needs.”

Will she be making it clear? 

Harris, like many Democrats, boycotted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress this week. Sure, she met with him later, but she really didn't have much choice. However, she is the only senior member of the Biden administration's foreign policy not to have traveled to Israel after Hamas' attack. In her defense, she also hasn't traveled to Brazil.

This past March, Harris said she didn't rule out whether there would be consequences for Israel if they invaded Rafah in southern Gaza. Biden also repeated this point several weeks later on CNN, stating that he would withhold the transfer of large-payload weapons if Israel mounted a Rafah invasion.

Harris' national security team is more pro-Hamas than Biden's. Her national security advisor, Phil Gordon, worked as Middle East advisor for Barack Obama in his second term. Gordon was the biggest fan of the Iran nuclear deal at the time, and we all know how that worked out. 

In June, Gordon addressed Israel warning that  “the U.S.-Israel partnership has been tested, perhaps as never before” as Israel faces “growing international criticism and pressure from the United Nations and other international bodies.” He urged Hamas to accept a hostage and ceasefire deal and said,  “[W]e remain Israel’s strongest, and best friend in the world.”

While Harris' people say that there is no difference between Biden's and her support of Israel, it seems that the political differences between them [she is further to the left than Biden was told to be] suggests that she is trying to appeal to a different audience than Biden. That audience prefers the black, white, and green flag over the red, white, and blue one.
