    This statement may have actually beaten Biden’s record of his red line comment only lasting a week considering it’s only been 24 hours and there’s a potential leak of Israel’s attack plan on Iran, with assistance by yours truly USCC.

    It won’t be because this isn’t about Hamas just like Iraq wasn’t about 9/11.

    Kind of a big deal for her to talk this way. She may in fact not be scared of Netanyahu and AIPAC. Will be interesting to see what she does in her second term, when she has nothing to lose.

      Can we please stop judging politicians by their virtue signaling and look at their actions?

      Also “not be scared of Netanyahu and AIPAC” is contradictory to “what she does in her second term, when she has nothing to lose.”

      Either she isn’t scared and can do something now, or she is scared but wants to do something else, postponing it, or indeed she just agrees with what is done.

      Also Biden is not up for reelection. Still what he does and doesn’t do speaks enough volumes to rebuild Gaza from those books.

    Saying it’s a turning point with no clear indication on where it should turn to is not an effective message from a political leader.

        As someone who read the article, she did say it’s a turning point with no clear indication on where it should turn to. I mean she said “we should end the war” but yeah how the fuck do you intend to do that? She says nothing other than “diplomacy”, which is a dog whistle for “allowing Israel to do whatever it wants”. I mean what the fuck is this?

        “I continue to believe diplomacy is the answer to bringing lasting stability across the Israel-Lebanon border and as vice president — and with your help as president — I will do everything in my power to achieve these goals,”

        Edit: On a closer look is it me or is she not mentioning Gaza in that proposed diplomacy of hers? She’s only bringing up the Israeli-Lebanon border. If I’m reading this right, this is very damning and more or less confirms she has no intention of actually doing anything about Gaza.
