JULY 25, 2024

Statement by Vice President Kamala Harris

Yesterday, at Union Station in Washington, D.C. we saw despicable acts by unpatriotic protestors and dangerous hate-fueled rhetoric.

I condemn any individuals associating with the brutal terrorist organization Hamas, which has vowed to annihilate the State of Israel and kill Jews. Pro-Hamas graffiti and rhetoric is abhorrent and we must not tolerate it in our nation.

I condemn the burning of the American flag. That flag is a symbol of our highest ideals as a nation and represents the promise of America. It should never be desecrated in that way.

I support the right to peacefully protest, but let’s be clear: Antisemitism, hate and violence of any kind have no place in our nation.

      What’s being opposed is not Judaism, but Zionism; and a not insignificant number of Jews are staunch anti-Zionists that oppose this genocide.

      Also Kamala Harris’ (or any political figure’s) husband’s religion is irrelevant, what matters is her zionist policies, and her staunch decades-long support for AIPAC.

      Bernie Sanders is Jewish and he opposes the genocide. Jews are not a monolith and Harris is not her husband

            so we just gonna trust you that Kamala gonna do better when she won’t come out and say so?

            she already showed more care for the american flag than Palestinians with her statement few days back.

            y’all really don’t understand how tone deaf that and this campaign “maybe she won’t support genocide, please vote to find out” that DNC komissars are currently pushing.

            get a fucking clue, clowns.
