As a society, far too many lap up empty words by politicians but pay no attention to their actions, or lack thereof, as is the case with Kamala Harris. In sidestepping the student’s claim and praising the student, Harris ended up in effect “applauding a student who accused America of funding Israel’s ‘ethnic genocide’ against Palestinians.” The issue gained much attention, see HERE and HERE. And now Iran is boasting about it!
The Biden administration is perceived by Iran’s mullahs, no matter what it does, as a kaffir enemy of the Islamic Republic, all while the administration betrays Israel and the principles of human rights.
“Iran state media promotes video of Kamala Harris not pushing back on Israel ‘ethnic genocide’ claim,” by Donald Ruth, Fox News, September 30, 2021:
An Iran state media outlet promoted a clip Thursday of Vice President Kamala Harris praising a student who had just accused the United States of funding Israel’s “ethnic genocide” against Palestinians.
Press TV, an Iran-affiliated international outlet, tweeted out the exchange Harris had at Virginia’s George Mason University Tuesday with a female student, who raised questions about U.S. monies provided to allies Israel and Saudi Arabia.
“I see that over the summer there have been, like, protests and demonstrations in astronomical numbers” about the Palestinian cause, the student said. She went on to note how “just a few days ago there were funds allocated to continue backing Israel, which hurts my heart because it’s ethnic genocide and displacement of people, the same that happened in America, and I’m sure you’re aware of this.”
The student claimed money that could help Americans struggling with housing and health care costs goes instead “to inflaming Israel and backing Saudi Arabia and whatnot.”
KAMALA HARRIS APPLAUDS STUDENT, WHO ACCUSED ISRAEL OF ‘ETHNIC GENOCIDE,’ FOR SPEAKING ‘YOUR TRUTH’
Harris said she was “glad” the student voiced her concerns….

This lady is useful idiot for the Islamic jihad and genocide of all infidels and useless for the rest of non-Muslim world. Good-for-nothing woman.
mortimer says
Harris is an empty vessel who is recognized as such by her own party. She has risen far above her level of competence. She is a total embarrassment to her party, so they cannot promote her to president or even use her to do anything. She is as much a bumbler as the Old Gaffer Joe-mentia. What a disappointing pair. Neither is useful for anything.
maria says
She is an idiot and has mental problems. But she is an antisemite and an Israel hater.
Do your best and indict her for racism She is a clear example of an neo nazi.
OTTER says
Women should not be in politics. They know nothing about power. They will sink us to Islam.
mortimer says
Otter, don’t be foolish. It’s the Leftists who are like that, not the conservatives. Christine Douglass-Williams is a superb writer and informed counter-jihadist. I would vote for Christine if she ran for office.
Your are wrong again … POWER is the ONLY thing that Leftists care about. Marxists have few if any ethics they will not abandon to gain more power.
Your bigoted ideas are totally subjective.
Infidel says
On the contrary, they did fine in their quest for power when they were just feminists and backing all sorts of causes – from abortion to women’s sports. But as a result of being completely co-opted by the Left, they lost in the pecking order – as did all other Leftist factions – to the muslims, and never had the sense to switch sides
Aside from that, I agree w/ you: Amy Coney Barrett has been a disaster on SCOTUS, whether it’s b’cos of intimidation or going native. Same w/ Senators Blackburn and Loeffler, who promised to stand up for Trump on January 6th, but turned on him when the vote came thanks to the ‘insurrection’. Otoh, there is Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert. I usually don’t like stereotyping, but there comes a point when the evidence is statistically overwhelming
Raja says
Otter,
With all due respect to you,
Indian queens and freedom fighters/widowed queens did well to keep islam in check. Look at the way the daughter of a slain Kashmiri Hindu (few days back) has thrown the gauntlet on the Islamic terrrorists, calling them cowards etc. The queen of England is a treasure trove of knowledge on world polity. Though I am not a fan of her, I still admire her. Power may not be the forte of women but they can go one up viz a viz men if the situation so demands.

Good posts, Mortimer and Raja.

OTTER has said this many times before–he desperately wants to forget savvy leaders like Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meir, Marine Le Pen, and Jayda Franzen.
Or, more likely, he desperately wants *us* to forget them–he has said that women should not just be barred from leadership positions, but from voting, getting an education, and being allowed to work outside the home. He has said that men have to control women (sometimes he says just white women; sometimes all women). He has also said that women must be forced to breed.
Note that he has said *nothing* critical about the policies of Biden or other clueless dhimmi male politicians. Probably because he doesn’t want to try to force them to breed…

Iran promotes clip of Kamala Harris applauding student who accused US of funding Israel’s ‘ethnic genocide’
………………
Of course they do. Just like her boss Joe Biden, she is for the appeasement of Iran–and is if possible even more bent on the destruction of our staunch ally Israel.
OLD GUY says
Way to go Kamala, I take you are not pro-America or Israel. So who owns you? Russia. China, Saudi Arabia, Iran. Right now it’s hard to tell. Maybe Hunter can help you cut a deal, he’s good at it.
