RAMZY BAROUD on how Israel’s narrative collides with military failure
IT WAS the speech of a candidate ready to continue with Joe Biden’s unconditional arming of Benjamin Netanyahu’s war of extermination.
Any hope that Kamala Harris would condition or suspend arms and funding of Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza was killed by her speech to the Democratic National Convention on Thursday.
In front of an excitable crowd chanting “USA, USA, USA,” Harris deployed familiar language: “I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself. Because the people of Israel must never again face the horror that the terrorist organisation Hamas caused on October 7. Including unspeakable sexual violence and the massacre of young people at a music festival.”
