Harris tells Netanyahu 'it is time' to end the war in Gaza and bring the hostages home
Channel 3000 News/AP ^ | July 26, 2024 | AP Staff

VP Kamala Harris on Thursday said she urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reach a cease-fire deal soon with Hamas so that dozens of hostages held by the militants in Gaza since Oct. 7 can return home.

Harris said she had a “frank and constructive” conversation with Netanyahu in which she affirmed Israel’s right to defend itself but also expressed deep concern about the high death toll in Gaza over nine months of war and the “dire” humanitarian situation there.

With all eyes on the likely Democratic presidential nominee, Harris largely reiterated President Joe Biden's longstanding message that it's time to find an endgame to the brutal war in Gaza, where more than 39,000 Palestinians have died. Yet she offered a more forceful tone about the urgency of the moment just one day after Netanyahu gave a fiery speech to Congress in which he defended the war, vowed “total victory” against Hamas and made relatively scant mention of cease-fire negotiations.

“There has been hopeful movement in the talks to secure an agreement on this deal,” Harris told reporters shortly after meeting with Netanyahu. “And as I just told Prime Minister Netanyahu, it is time to get this deal done.”

Netanyahu met separately earlier in the day with Biden, who has also been calling on Israel and Hamas to come to an agreement on a U.S.-backed, three-phase deal to bring home remaining hostages and establish an extended cease-fire.

The White House said in a statement that Biden discussed with Netanyahu “the need to close the remaining gaps, finalize the deal as soon as possible, bring the hostages home, and reach a durable end to the war in Gaza.” Biden and Netanyahu also discussed improving flow of aid into Gaza as well as the ongoing threat posed by Iranian-backed militant groups...

Harris is a naive juvenile thinking that you can negotiate with Hamas. Her plan is that of an emotional 13 year old.

“Harris is a naive juvenile...that of an emotional 13 year old.”

*************

That is so true. There are children at the middle school level who are far more emotionally mature and intellectually capable than she is. Seriously.

Since when does some dame who is merely a token tell a world leader with Bibi's credentials how to run his country.

Peace is up to Hamas AND the Palestinian enablers aka Muslims who are taught from birth to "Kill All the Christians and Jews".

Since we’ve lived in upside-down world :-(

Who is calling her/this out, as you have rightly done, in the media, or in DC?

Camel-uh is such a gross embarrassment to America! And stupid as a sack of bull manure at dinner .

But it is also embarrassing how the American people let her hold offices she’s ineligible for in the first place.
We don’t honor our founders, our societal charter/ constitution, our moral principles, our judeo- Christian faith heritage, or our nation’s history. We get the predictable consequences, most regrettably.

Saw this ...

Harris's words could harm hostage deal talks, senior Israeli official says [First foreign policy disaster of new candidate]

Vice President Kamala Harris may have made it more difficult to close a hostage deal, a startled senior Israeli official said after hearing the remarks she issued to the press late Thursday afternoon.

“We hope that it won't make it harder to achieve a hostage deal because it gives the appearance of day light between Israel and the United States,” the official said.

Harris surprised Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and those close to him by issuing her statement, which she also placed on X shortly after her hour-long meeting with him.

Kamala is a moron

Biden dislikes Israel and always has.

Biden is smart enough to deal with Israel carefully and in a measured fashion- Kamala is not

Kamala is making a huge mistake here.

Kamala represents Netanyahu's political enemies and Israel is back to the wall facing an existential crisis.

Like virtually all members of the Democrat hard Ldft, Kamala is a virulent anti Semite as would be any people she appoints to her administration

Kamala would be such a disaster for Israel and Jewish people in general at this point that she represents an existential threat to the State of Israel

Kamala has a very problematic past with a thick file of extremely damaging blackmail bait. Much of the dirt is related to a very sleazy sexual and a bizarre lifestyle past that tabloid dreams are made of

The fact that none has come out as of yet is a bit astounding. One can only speculate that people have been saving this stuff for her inevitable Presidential run

Poking the Izzy’s where it hurts the most is maybe not the smartest thing for Kamala but she cannot help herself
