Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 3 months agoYeah she just condemns all protests against israel committing Genocide. What could that possibly mean.
Even includeds some nice Hasbara about Hamas vowing to kill all the Jews. Lying for israel is always a good time.

She didn’t quite say that either.
While I agree that there’s a common myth that Hamas want to exterminate the Jews, and that Harris might be invoking that, she didn’t actually say “kill all Jews”.
She said “kill Jews”, not “kill all Jews”. (And I think it’s fair to say that, because they did just kill a thousand Jews in a terrorist attack in October.)
For people who don’t know, Hamas’s stated goal is for Jews and Palestinians to live in a unified single state (probably an Islamic one) called Palestine, where Arabs are the dominant group and Jews are a protected minority. (They want the return of 4 million Palestinian refugees to Palestine, which would make Jews a minority.)
Hence, they want the elimination of Israel, but not the elimination of Jews. I think it’s unfortunate that this has so regularly been twisted into the claim that Hamas wants to eliminate the Jews.
They’ve also indicated that they might be open to compromising and negotiating a two-state solution.
Anyway, none of this matters now. Now that Hamas have committed a massive terrorist attack, there’s no way that anyone can negotiate with them.
Hamas is supposed to negotiate with people committing Genocide but when they fight back suddenly negotiation are off?

It means she’ll do anything to avoid losing the votes of the American jews.
Or latinos. Or black. Or christians. Or atheists. Or women. Or gays. Or white nationalists. Or anyone. She’s a politicians, like all the others. All she cares about is getting elected.
You conveniently lef the word Arabs out. I understand this means you don’t see them as humans.

You may not realize this, but you can be against Israel’s genocide of innocent Palestinians without supporting Hamas - which is also pro-genocide, just of Jews.
It doesn’t have to be either/or. You can condemn awful people/groups/governments all around.

Where has Kamala condemned Israel?
She still has to pay off the AIPAC money that get her into the Senate.
She won’t be as bad as Joe, but she’s already been bought and this statement after meeting with Bibi isn’t a very good indication of how she’ll govern.

My use of “you” was specific to the user to whom I was replying, not Harris. The user to whom I was replying implied that saying Hamas has a goal to kill Jews is a lie; it is not.
