Kamala Harris Clarifies: She Meant 6-week ‘Ceasefire’ in a Hostage Deal
Breitbart ^ | 03/04/202 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 03/04/2024 8:39:10 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Vice President Kamala Harris clarified remarks she made Sunday apparently demanding an “immediate ceasefire” in Gaza, adding that she was simply calling for a proposed six-week truce as part of a deal to release Israeli hostages.

The Times of Israel reported:

“Given the immense scale of suffering in Gaza, there must be an immediate ceasefire,” Harris begins, causing the crowd in Selma to erupt in applause, before she can finish her sentence, when the seemingly thrown off vice president adds: “for at least the next six weeks, which is what currently is on the table,” Harris continues, barely heard over the sustained cheers from ostensibly progressive supporters who have long pushed the administration to call for an immediate ceasefire.

As Breitbart News noted, Harris’s statement was a “head fake,” aimed at President Joe Biden’s wavering left-wing base, rather than a change in policy.

I hope Israel kills every Hamas terrorist. Hamas elevated the reprisals that Israel is justified to use in this war by acting in an evil, genocidal manner when they murdered, raped and tortured Israeli citizens.

“An immediate cease fire is a fire that ceases immediately and not later. We all know that an immediate cease fire is the best way to immediately bring an end to the hostilities. If we wait for a cease fire, then it will be delayed and we will not see it right away”

Didn’t Hamas and Israel have a ceasefire in place when Hamas was still firing rockets into Israel and then they did Oct. 7th?

What is the point of a ceasefire with Hamas? Anybody have any ideas how Hamas could be trusted for the 17th million ceasefire that they won’t respect? Anybody have any ideas if Hamas actually has control of any living hostages at this point?

Remove everyone from Gaza, transport them to Iran. The Iranians have been instrumental in starting this war and breaking the peace. The Iranians should take all the GAZA refugees and save them by transporting them to Iran to give them safe harbor and shelter. There they will be far away from Jewish people, near fellow Muslims, and they can thrive. The land should be removed from the existing landowners as war reparations with Israeli Government controlling it. Then GAZA should NOT be settled, it should be bulldozed and turned into military bases and national parks.

Let the People of the West Bank have a ‘Palestinian’ nation, with the understanding that if they attack Israel they will receive EXACTLY the above treatment. That’s the only way, short of Genocide, to end this conflict at this point.

Let’s send her, JB, and Blinken over there. Have them go find the AMERICANS that are still held hostage! Have then go talk to the survivors of Oct 7 to see if they still think about stopping IDF.

I’m confused. Can I see the Venn diagram on that, please?

I’m sure that the Israelis welcome her expertise. She is obviously so much more knowledgeable than they are — as she evidently considers herself to be.

She meant they should set down the things soldiers carry that go boom, boom out of the narrow end and then people fall down. Like Chicago.

I’d like to hear here speak extensively for a half hour on her visions of diplomacy and her detailed Middle East peace plans.

So now she's on record as supporting both sides. The moslems of Dearborn and the Jews of Westchester County will be happy. Sounds like Kommie is expecting to be the nominee in November.

Did she also cackle a couple times? If not, I don’t think she’s serious.

Well done, sir. I don’t think Kamala could have phrased it any clearer than that. ;-)

How about this deal? Cease fire. First rocket from Gaza and it gets vaporized. Then cease fire continues.

She has done such a bang up job on our border, why can’t she go make sure the Israeli border is secure?

This is simply embarrassing to have these two flip-flopping idiots in the White House.
We “supported” Israel after the hamas attacked, now we are giving Hamas supplies and Israel weapons.

I have never been so embarrassed for my country in my entire life.
