Harris Faces Pressure Over Israel Arms Embargo

Vice President Kamala Harris has faced significant pressure from anti-Israel activists and progressive Democrats calling for a cease-fire in Gaza and an arms embargo against Israel. During a rally in Michigan, she was heckled by pro-Palestinian protesters and met briefly with leaders of the Uncommitted National Movement, who claimed she was open to discussing an arms embargo. However, Harris's national security adviser, Phil Gordon, clarified that Harris does not support an arms embargo and will ensure Israel can defend itself against Iran-backed terrorist groups. Former President Donald Trump criticized Harris, claiming she dislikes Israel and Jewish people, despite being married to a Jewish man. Harris's stance aims to balance the demands of progressive activists while maintaining strong support for Israel, a key issue in the upcoming election.
