Stop enabling the genocide? Please?
All they have to do is pledge to follow the Leahy Law....
Israel won't comply, which means we legally can't provide arms. Kamala doesn't even have to be "the bad guy", she can just say she's choosing to follow American law and if Israel wants arms then they can comply like every other recipient has to.
It's really as easy as saying:
Boom, election locked up.
How many voters would she lose if she declared intent to stop assisting Isreal?
She might possibly gain a few, but would she lose any?
Is not about voters, it's about money. Both parties are bribed to keep it going.
It's a valid question and I'm sure the Harris campaign has spent considerable resources trying to get a good estimate of that number.
It's pretty insane that the Democratic party officials have to say, "We'd love to stop funding a genocide but our members won't vote for us if we do that."
She'd gain more than she'd lose, even before counting in the electoral college. Conditioning Israeli aid is supported by the majority of people of Democrats, Republicans and independents, and the people who don't want it don't care too much either way. Definitely not more than left wingers who want the genocide to stop. In terms of votes it's a no brainer.
She would likely gain voters because she would be distinguishing herself from Biden who remains deeply unpopular.
Yes. Enough to lose. These people don't seem to understand this (or refuse to)
This is THE potential problem with this
Yeah, I would hope there are more anti-genocide voters but i doubt it, honestly.
Any voters she would lose are far outweighed by the amount of voters she'd get. It's about 5:1 from what the polls indicate, or about a +6 point gain. Quite significant considering how dead-locked the race is right now

Maybe their thought process is that D voters will vote for her either way and they're trying to pull R voters who support Isreal? Otherwise, I don't get it. The data here supports pulling support of Israel.
You people really have a massively inflated concept of how many voting progressives that there are. Get off the internet for a while...
Harris would 100% lose the election if she said that.
Best they can do is thoughts and prayers. Oh wait, that was school shootings. Never mind then.
School bombings don't qualify.
Israelis don't have the guts to even look the children in their eyes as they slaughter them. Cowards.
When they actually face real soldiers like in Southern Lebanon they get their arses handed to them.
All they know is blow up pager, burn refugee camp, bomb hospitals, shoot pregnant women in belly, rape men to death, and sniper bullets in kid’s heads.
I'm also offended by Israeli war crimes but I don't think that's an accurate assessment.
As far as I can tell, the Israeli military is very good at violence. They're extremely well equipped, they have superb training, and their military personnel tend to be dedicated to their cause.
The main problem isn't their ability to kill and destroy, it's their indiscriminate use of that ability.
Of course they look them in the eyes! It helps them aim for the head!
