Harwood erases Palestine from the debate in which Harris repeated ceasefire and Palestinian death platitudes, but defined the Gaza genocide by the October 7 Hamas attack. She repeatedly invoked Israel's "right to defend itself," and promised continued US material support. The Harris campaign writes off genocide protests. This may cost her the election.

I hope it does not cost her the election. So many who empathize with the carnage happening in Gaza believe she will lose because of not taking a stronger stance. I hear that, but.....First, she has to win the delegates. They determine the president. Second, US domestic issues in an election are always going to be addressed first. Third, Israel/US relations are a slippery slope for 50+ years. Netanyahu is baiting the Biden to put boots on the ground. BN refuses to accept any deal and constantly moves the line. BN needs to be removed/voted out of power. Hamas, too.) The American woman who was recently killed in the West Bank, is not be taken lightly by America. Those settlers are out of control. Too, the IDF, once again, had given the lame, "Oops" excuse. Fourth, when Harris wins, she can finally step from behind Biden's policy on Israel. (Hence the slippery slope, not to mention AIPAC's financial power.) Fifth, if Trump wins, you all can kiss The West Bank and Gaza goodbye because Trump aligns himself with crooked Netanyahu, and does not give a damn what happens to Palestinians. Sixth, Netanyahu seems to be stalling with a deal until our presidential elections are over. He wants Trump to win. Period. Until then, not much is going to be resolved. Lastly, unfortunately, Harris HAS to play the political game.

More than anything, I would like to see sanctions placed on "Netanyahu's government", the hostages released, and restoration to begin in Gaza, and justice given for land confiscated by settlers, as well as a true democratic government for all in Israel.

As I read articles in Haaretz papers, the "sane" Israeli people have had enough of BN shenanigans, as most Americans are tired of Trumps divisiveness and straight out lying.

I completely agree with what your saying. I just wish she would toss me a bone. Something like the conflict did not start on Oct 7 would be a start. There are things she could slip in to signal this is not the way she thinks. I just can't stand it when I hear that tired old "we're working tirelessly…"

Personally I don't think Harris will deviate much from what Biden did. Let's remember it's not the president who dreams up policy. She will be directed in what to think say and do. And the moment she started off with "Israel has a right to defend itself," well, I just tuned out. Same old same old, nothing much changes - just please the donor class and carry on as usual.

I want to believe you are wrong. In fact, I hope all who are judging her are wrong. If not, get ready for your the American dictatorship under DT.

That signaled to me her control by lobby’s

Maybe that is expected but it’s deeply troubling.

And so what? Business as usual…genocide ongoing before, during and after the debate…full of lies from all sides. Nothing will change and if it does, it’s gonna get worse.

It’s just suspicion at this point, but maybe Harris will be tougher on Netanyahu after she’s safely in office. If she said it now the aipac lobby would take her out. Has to be strategic.

True, MAYBE Harris will be tougher on Netanyahu, and MAYBE my grandma will grow wheels and become a bike.

Yeah just like the piece of shit Obama. Strategic my ass. No one gets elected and stays in office without sucking zio dicks. Haven’t you learned this yet? You need a revolution in your own country to turn things around in stead of starting revolutions in other countries.

What about PALESTINE?....she regurgitated the long de-bunked notion that it all started on OCT 7 because of Hamas as well as all the #zionist fables in horrific and unnecessary detail...no context no truth...never will vote for her...she is making the Hubert Humphrey mistake.

If the Orange man still wins, that's not saying much about our character as a nation.

I would have liked Harris speak more on her difference in upholding all US Laws and enforcing equally across the board against anyone or any country without exception; including the Leahy Law against Israel.

One more poke in the eye could have been the statement," he is contesting and trying to win the election for his personal benefit of staying out of jail for his criminal conduct throughout his life." Just like Netanyahu.

Mehdi, Zeteo needs to stop toeing the corporate media line. This gushing glamorization of Kamala lying out the side of her face (even, while Trump flubbered out both ends) is not the informed and informative content we expect from intelligent media outlets. We need coverage of the benefits for the 99% Stein and Ware will bring to this country.

My bad. Maybe in 4 years Stein will get a play. It ain't gonna happen in 2025.

She continues to lose big on Palestine. She has no credibility whatsoever when she talks about morals and international law. Also, she clearly is not representing all Americans. She is still better than the orange idiot.

Kamala: fracking and fossil fuel expansion good, racist border policies good, dick cheney good, Israel good, guns good.

Trump: IMMIGRANTS ARE EATING OUR PETS.

Kamala wins the debate, but the American people are the real winners. 🇺🇸🫡

How is it that only Vice President Harris has been able to put him in his place face to face? All other opponents have been bulldozed by the former president. Kamala Harris has rare talent and she did all of us a huge favor by knowing how to attack this seemingly invincible menace. Finally! Now if she would only do something to stop the slaughter in Gaza. That is going to be her next big test and we know how difficult that task is.

If Trump is elected he will have no more agency than a Salzburg marionette (puppet). Neither will Harris whose collar and leash will be tugged on by the varied and monied interests who run the USA. Nothing will change for the Palestinians apart from a few platitudes. While the world may be a safer place under Harris wars around the globe will continue to be a big money earner for the US economy. Interestingly there has been an arms expo in Melbourne, Australia which attracted violent protests and police overreach.

I won't be sad to see Trump go... I hope!

I won't be happy to see Harris ascend, because she is another spokesman for monied interests.

I didn't watch the debate because I don't care what either of those people has to say.

She Shrunk everything on ranting and raving (on how great he is) Trump! She ruined him in this debate. I'm not a Harris/Communism light fan or a Trump Fascist Heavy fan!

Where’s Trump going to be buried ?

He didn’t really die yet, he always smells that way . But seriously Im thinking it would be fitting bro bury him on golf course. Well not in !’I meant under .I gave thought to how he’d be able to say , “I get lots of visitors “

So when that came to mjnd I came up with better places

Can cut him in tiny pieces and put a piece in evert bathroom in the world .

It would also be very fitting

he’d be with other tiny pieces of poop .

If anyone comes up with a better location let us know.

The reason I came across this subject is he’s not looking very good. They always have him prepped to be buried but last night at debate was very much like he was ready. His brain pretty much stopped working he’s sounding like a record that plays same song over and over .

Turn the record over and it’s same song !

So ghve thought and lets figure out where to park his ass

Hurry
