Elder of Ziyon discusses Kamala Harris’ statements about Israel during her debate with Donald Trump: “The mistakes in ABC’s question about Israel to Kamala Harris, and more in her answer,” Elder of Ziyon, September 12, 2024:
[Harris:] But the one thing I will assure you always, I will always give Israel the ability to defend itself, in particular as it relates to Iran and any threat that Iran and its proxies pose to Israel.
[Elder of Ziyon:] The US policy has been to help Israel defend itself, but it is not keen on Israel winning any wars. A nation that is behind fences and always worried about where the nect [sic] attack can come from is not a secure country, no matter how good its defense is.
If Harris was serious about supporting Israel, she would say she supports an Israeli victory – not another detente with terror groups that led to October 7 to begin with.
It’s not enough to give Israel weapons to help defend itself. It has to be able to go on the offensive, to destroy threats before they are fully realized. That means, above all, to supply the IDF with bunker-buster bombs so that it might destroy Iran’s underground nuclear facilities at Fordow. Israel cannot only be in a defensive crouch, prepared to retaliate but not to take the offensive. Israelis from now on will follow the Talmudic injunction: “If someone is planning to kill you, rise up and kill him first.”
[Harris:] But we must have a two-state solution where we can rebuild Gaza, where the Palestinians have security, self-determination and the dignity they so rightly deserve.
“Two-state solution”? Good god, where has Harris been? Does she not realize that the Palestinians have repeatedly said that any “state” they may acquire after Israel has been squeezed back with in the 1949 armistice lines, with a nine-mile-wide waist from Qalqilya to the sea, lines described. by Abba Eban as “the lines of Auschwitz,” will only be used as a base from which to launch further assaults on a much smaller and more vulnerable Israel, until the Jewish state disappears, to be replaced “from the river to the sea” by a twenty-third Arab state?
Why does Kamala Harris think that the Palestinians have given up their long-held dream of destroying Israel? Has anyone among the Palestinians suggested that they are prepared for that? No, I thought not. Harris’s phrase about how the Palestinians must “have security, self-determination and the dignity they so rightly deserve” makes one gag. That “they so rightly deserve”? They’ve been conducting war and terrorism against the Jewish state for 76 years. They were delighted with the October 7 attack by Hamas. Why do they “so rightly deserve” anything? Would we have said in 1945 that “the Germans, now that they are no longer a threat, need to have the security, self-determination, and the dignity they so rightly deserve”?
Here is what Kamala Harris should have said at the debate:
On October 7, 6,000 Hamas operatives smashed into Israel, accompanied by several hundred Gazan civilians, where they proceeded to torture, rape, mutilate, and murder 1,200 Israelis and kidnap another 250. Israel was thus forced to fight a war that it did not expect and did not want. It has been fighting not just in Gaza, but against Hezbollah in Lebanon, against the Houthis in Yemen. In fact, the Israelis are now fighting what has been called a “seven-front war,” in Gaza against Hamas, in the West Bank against Hamas and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, in Lebanon, against Hezbollah, in Yemen against the Houthis, in Syria against Assad’s army, and Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps bases, in Iraq against the Shia militia known as Kata’ib Hezbollah, and above them all, their string-pulling puppet-master Iran.
We know, and appreciate, the colossal efforts the IDF has made to minimize civilian casualties, by warning Gazans to leave areas or buildings about to be targeted. We know about the nine million leaflets dropped, the fifteen million messages sent, the sixteen million robocalls made by the IDF, to warn Gazans to move away from danger. We know, too, how Hamas uses Gazans as human shields, and steals aid meant for the people of Gaza.
We will unstintingly provide Israel with all the weapons it needs both to defend itself and, when the IDF deems it necessary, to take the fight to the enemy before it has a chance to harm the Jewish people and the Jewish state.
There. That’s much better. Feel free, Kamala, to use it.

Some old jokes fit this hyena.
When they were passing out brains, she thought they said trains, and ordered a locomotive.
When they were passing out looks, she thought they said books and ordered a horror.
Anyone who votes for this creature is a fool and/ or evil. Like flushing everything good, everything so many have worked so hard to achieve, down a giant toilet.
Walter Sieruk says
Kamala Harris with her anti-Israel polices doesn’t stop with her wanting an arms embargo against the State of Israel Even before this she supported the horrible idea that that Joe Biden is pushing for ,a so called “two –state solution” which taking everything into account is really no “solution, “ at all.
Even that leftist US President t Franklin D. Roosevelt with all liberal socialist ideology still had more common sense and understanding than Kamas Harris ,with comrades of the Red/Green alliance, for Biden is still striving to obtain that folly of an idea of a “two state solution.” Which in reality is no solution but a recipe for disaster. The reason why this is so is because a “Palestine state” that would be, no doubt, controlled by wicked jihad-minded Muslims with all their Islamic intolerance would only be a set up for a catastrophe in the Middle East.
As President Roosevelt, had so very wisely declared, “No compromise can end that conflict. There never has been—there never can be—successful compromise between good and evil. Only total victory can reward the champions of tolerance, and decency, and freedom, and faith.”
Walter Sieruk says
It just can’t be reiterated too much because the message is so very important. The message is that Kamala Harris with her support for what she calls “Palestinian self- determination,” actually means that she supports the idea of what some people call a “two –state solution.” In reality that is no genuine solution, at all.
That terrible folly of Kamala Harris is revealed by his total lack of wisdom about the State of Israel two-state solution.” One the other hand maybe she, with her Red/Green alliance, she’s just evil.
Thus a “two state solution” is out of the question. .This is because a “two state solution” not really a “solution” but an Islamic ploy of deception , a smokescreen and hoax and a fraud.
For example those Hamas rocket attacks in to Israel from Gaza reveals that even the idea of some people of dividing Jerusalem as well as other parts of the State of Israel between the Jewish people of the Muslim/ Arabs is nothing but folly. To engage the madness of such “talks” is a hoax and a farce .This is because in the so called “negotiations” between the heads of the Jewish nation of Israel and the leaders of the “Palestinians” the Muslim /Arabs the “Palestinian” leaders will speak the truth only when in happens to fit their agenda. The rest of the time the will be speaking half-truths and outright lies. For their goal is to obtain all of the land of the State of Israel. Even in it takes much time and it means getting the land piece by piece. Therefore, those “peace talks” are a hoax.
For the “Palestinian” leaders are employing what is the Islamic doctrine of Taqiyya . Which is the Islamic dogma that lying and deception are good things to do as long as it’s done for the cause of the advancement of Islam. The insidious scheme is part of the stealth jihad .Otherwise known as “Islamic Gradualism.”
This sly and something subtle strategy of disingenuous speech, lying deception of achieving the goal of all the land of Israel a war ploy that will be a disaster if the heads of the State of Israel are foolish enough to agree to divide the land of Israel with Muslim /Arabs ,the “Palestinians.” For if such a “peace dialogue” results in a divided land, the outcome will literally be murder. For “Palestinian” leader will allow the jihadists use that land as a base to launch murderous rocket attacks in to Israel. As for example, Hamas of Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Such false hopes for peace which are based on the foundation of lies are nothing new when it comes to Israel. For example, the Bible in Psalm 55:20, 21. Reads “Such men do violence to those at peace with them and break their promised word; their speech is smoother the butter but their thoughts are of war.” [N.E.B.]

CalvinsLutheran says
In real truth the West is in procrastinate mode. With enough Leftist verbiage, so the WOKE Leftards believe, the Islamic Caliphate will become fatigued through time and marinade in the ideals of peace they see “manifested” in The West “Oh just give them time the Muslims will come around and in no time we’ll have PEACE on earth 🌍. Little do they know that outside of their DISNEYLAND WOKE POSTMODERNIST(my spellcheck almost spelled POST MORTEM) DECONSTRUCTIONIST SECULAR MATERIALIST worldview is a reality where Islam with 1400 years of existence and a brilliant if not totally sublime culture that has intellectual substance we in the West have been kept diabolically unaware of, while those demonic, anti-Christian minds have watched us cool and unsympathetic and made their perpetual and unapologetically devilish plans against us. Indeed our little town of Mayberry worldview has no knowledge of our own doctrines anymore than the rough unschooled untutored backwater Jihadi does of his or her own. But the subtle and subterranean intelligentsia of the NEW WORLD ORDER who manage ALL FAITHS FOR MUTUAL DESTRUCTION is poised to annihilate all proletarian bottom-feeding suckers to Sheol for their own elitist benefit. Hamas has proven to their OWN USEFUL IDIOTS that they care NOT for Islam but for their own personal security and enrichment HERE ON EARTH 🌍. (Yahya Sinwar evidently considers Islam a crock himself being that those 72 virgins are not worth standing around looking forward to. Ironically he is on the run in a burqa!!!) But being the ultra-subtle panderers that they are, Hamas top guns have their people continually run to the barrel of the gun while our own panderers fleece the West into a mutual self-annihilation with the deliberate ingestion of terrorists into Western and American society. Global conspiracy maybe?
James Lincoln says
Anyone who believes that a “two-state solution” would work for Israel and the so-called “Palestinians” does not understand islam.
somehistory says
True, James. And as the Bible says, ‘anyone who gets involved in an argument that is not his business, is taking hold of the ears of a dog.’
Demanding that Israel do what America wouldn’t do, is also hypocritical.
Michael Skok says
You can say something nice about Palestine, Gaza, and Islam; and you can say something bad about Israel and the West. But you can’t say something bad about Palestine, Gaza, and Islam; nor can you say something nice about Israel and the West.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I was surprised that at the debate, she blamed Hamas for the October 7th massacres. That’s likely to take its toll not just in Michigan, one of her must-win states, but also Minnesota, Virginia and even New Jersey
OLD GUY says
Where has Kamala been? On her knees and she’s not praying.
She is a huge mistake.
