After Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed Kamala Harris, one question has been on the minds of all Americans: any views on what the vice president of the US has to say about Israel and Gaza?
Biden’s backing of Israeli attacks on Gaza led to conflict with moderate and progressive factions in the Democrats. Will Harris pave a new route?
Most significantly, Harris missed Netanyahu’s speech in Congress as a VP given that she had to attend a ceremony in Indianapolis. Harris is likewise expected to have a one-on-one with Netanyahu later in the day, July 24.
Harris is said to tell him that it is time for the war to end in a way that will guarantee security for Israel, all hostages to be released, the suffering of the Palestinian people of Gaza to cease, and the Palestinian people to be afforded the rights to dignity, freedom, and self-determination
This leads to a further question: will Kamala Harris set a different pace if she becomes president of the United States of America?
In this case, Harris was not present when Netanyahu was speaking and rather opted to meet with him in person. Biden’s approach is slightly different.
Such gestures were captured by camera, for instance, the sight of Biden warmly greeting Netanyahu on the latter’s airport in Tel Aviv in November, symbolizing his steadfast loyalty to the Jewish state. Biden and Netanyahu are still friends; Biden has been providing Netanyahu with financial and military assistance.
