Dear Editor,
Kamala Harris’ acceptance speech showed she is capable of being firm in her convictions when it comes to ensuring “safety, dignity, and justice” for rising American generations.
However, she came off as much less firm about ensuring “hope,” “joy,” and “love” for Muslim women and children living in Gaza.
She said, “I will always ensure that Israel has the ability to defend itself.” However, Israel is currently not engaged in a defensive war, but rather an expanding offensive war against religious freedom and hope in the Middle East.
Netanyahu will go down in history as Israel’s second clearly evil king, the first one being Manasseh, of whom the Hebrew Bible judges, “He shed innocent blood very much.”
Taking 20 or more Palestinian civilian lives for every Israeli civilian life lost clearly puts him in that category.
Harris refused to allow a Palestinian American to speak at the convention, which betrays her promise that she and Joe are doing everything they can to bring an immediate cease-fire to the conflict.
The two authoritarians in charge of the action in Israel and Gaza will never allow peace when war ensures them an extension of power in their respective countries.
