        No she was not, however there is a difference between someone indifferent to the suffering of others, and someone like Trump who thinks it’s funny

          There’s not. Condemnations and calls to peace do nothing when the flow of weapons and financial support is left untouched.

            I sadly agree, Kamala wasn’t going to save Gaza, but she wasn’t going to fucking build a god damn resort on the remains of dead families either… So there’s that at least

              She wouldn’t have built it. But would America have funded it? Absolutely. At least Trump is completely transparent about what would have happened regardless.

          It’s not, though, as Harris wouldn’t have changed much. The US would have supported Israel in this war whoever the president is. You think Israel would have let a Palestinian or an Arabic authority supervise Gaza after they did all the work of destroying it? Harris wouldn’t have put any real pressure on Israel, and based on her campaign it seemed like even the little angry comments every now and then would also disappear.

          A country that may have benefited from Harris being president is Lebanon for example, but for Palestine as a whole this was the plan since the beginning.

          What you probably meant is this being about the US and it’s unconditional support, not it’s elections.
