Kamala Harris on Gaza

Vice President Kamala Harris addressed tensions within the Democratic Party regarding the Gaza conflict during a campaign rally in Detroit, where she confronted pro-Palestinian protesters. Harris asserted her commitment to speaking on behalf of the party, suggesting that dissent could lead to a Trump victory. Following the rally, activists from the Uncommitted National Movement expressed concerns about U.S. military support for Israel, and while they indicated Harris showed openness to discussing an arms embargo, her aides later clarified she did not commit to such discussions. Despite the mixed messages, Harris's campaign emphasized her continued engagement with the Muslim and Palestinian communities and reaffirmed support for Israel's right to self-defense. The situation reflects the ongoing divisions within the party regarding foreign policy amidst a highly contentious election cycle.
