Kamala Harris to urge Israeli PM Netanyahu to end the war and suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza

-

 


Vice President Kamala Harris will be facing her first week as the Democratic presidential nominee having to tackle one of the most politically contentious issues in U.S. foreign policy when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu makes an official visit to Washington.


Netanyahu's visit highlights Harris' views, who has proven to be a strong voice in the Israel-Hamas war, especially in discussions of the plight of innocent Palestinians. Harris attracted widespread attention this year when she called for an "immediate ceasefire" during a civil rights speech in Selma, Alabama, and attacked Israel for creating a "humanitarian catastrophe" in Gaza.


Harris will meet privately with the Israeli president at the White House. But if she wins the White House in November, her comments before and after the call will be closely watched for clues about her position on Israel's war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Biden, who is scheduled to meet with Netanyahu on Thursday, has seen his approval ratings fall as he resists calls from progressive Democratic voters to block U.S. weapons from reaching Israel. The damage has been severe in key battleground states like Michigan. Democrats are hoping Harris can largely free herself from that stigma and win back liberals who say she can't vote for Biden because of his Israel policy. White House officials said Harris will skip Netanyahu's address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday, but that certainly won't hurt those efforts. Instead, she will keep a long-standing promise to speak at an event hosted by one of Indiana's largest historically black sororities.


Harris is seen as a tougher critic of the Gaza war than Biden, but she is not expected to express a different view from current policy in her meeting with Netanyahu.


It is unclear how different their views actually are. Even their ceasefire call, which made headlines for new U.S. pressure on Israel, mirrored Biden's position on calling for Hamas to accept an Israeli offer to stop fighting in exchange for the release of hostages held in Gaza. But her tone and emphasis on human suffering marked a dramatic rhetorical shift in how the administration discusses the costs of the war.


Still, experts and voters say they will be watching to see how Harris fares this week, especially for signs of change on the hotly debated issue of whether the U.S. should condition military aid to Israel on Palestinian limits on civilian casualties.

 What is the Gaza Strip? What you want to be aware of the domain at the core of the Israel-Hamas war The Gaza Strip has been the focal point of weighty siege for over seven days after Israel sent off retaliatory airstrikes for the extraordinary dread assault by Palestinian assailant bunch Hamas on Oct. 7. The territory — a limited segment of land among Israel and Egypt, close to the Mediterranean Ocean — is home to generally 2.3 million Palestinians and is portrayed as quite possibly of the most thickly populated put on The planet. The 140-square-mile district is generally the size of Philadelphia. Most of the people who live in Gaza are youthful, with practically 65% of the populace younger than 24. ' World's biggest outside jail' Beginning around 2007, Israel has forced an air, land and ocean bar on the Gaza Strip, saying the move is important to protect the country from Hamas' assaults. Gaza is encircled by substantial walls and security barriers. Palestinians are di

  Terrorist Attacks on Israel and Indian Solidarity with Israel as India also Suffers Islamic Terror                         Islamic terrorism is a global threat, and no country is immune. Israel and India are two countries that have been particularly hard hit by terrorist attacks. In recent years, there has been a growing solidarity between the two countries in the fight against terrorism. Israel is a small country in the Middle East that is surrounded by hostile neighbors. Since its founding in 1948, Israel has been the target of numerous terrorist attacks. These attacks have been carried out by a variety of groups, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Terrorist attacks in Israel have killed thousands of people and injured many more. The attacks have also caused significant economic damage. In 2014, for example, the cost of terrorism to the Israeli economy was estimated to be over $5 billion. India is another country that has been severely impacted by Islami

  Hamas is a paramilitary group that has been designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union, and Israel. The group has been responsible for numerous attacks on Israeli civilians, including children and women. #BarbericHamas #BrutalityagainstIsraeliwWomenChildren #IndiawithIsrael #TerroristHamas  In one particularly barbaric act, Hamas militants attacked a school bus in southern Israel in 2004, killing five Israeli children and wounding several others. In another attack, Hamas militants fired rockets into a residential area in Ashkelon, killing a three-year-old Israeli girl. Hamas has also been responsible for the deaths of numerous Israeli soldiers. In 2014, Hamas militants killed two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border tunnel. In another attack, Hamas militants killed three Israeli soldiers in an ambush. Hamas's attacks on Israeli civilians are a clear violation of international law. The Fourth Geneva Convention prohibits the targeting of civilians
