Harris, despite being part of the Biden administration, was seen by some as being more sympathetic to the pro-Palestinian cause and made a forceful case for a cease-fire deal after meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netantyahu.

“We all came to a consensus that it’s not going to make a difference, that [Harris] represents this administration,” said Hatem Abudayyeh, chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network. “We’re going to stay full steam ahead.”

Harris may also face sporadic protests inside the arena where she will make her televised acceptance speech on Thursday. About 30 delegates who represent the “uncommitted” vote in the primary which activists used as a means of protesting Biden’s policies on Israel will attend.

      It’s not orders. Israel has had $300 billion dollars worth of aid and weapons over the last 75 years. They don’t need Biden.

          That is NOT why Biden is sending arms to Israel. Biden is rightly sending arms to Israel for the “Iron Dome” protection from outside aggression.

          Israel misappropriates that support for use in the genocide. That is NOT on Biden. That’s on Bibi and the IDF.

          But in the end I am so fucking tired of your continual misrepresetation of facts bordering on outright lies.

            Biden knows what the weapons are used for. He’s still selling them.
