Vice President Kamala Harris recently finished a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, but instead of focusing on Hamas’s terrorist actions that sparked a violent conflict, Harris chose to chastise Israel for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The VP seems to have a talent for missing the forest for the trees.
After a 40-minute discussion, Harris jumped straight to the press to express her concerns about the “scale of human suffering” among Palestinians, completely ignoring that it was Hamas that ignited this firestorm when they slaughtered innocent Israelis, including Americans, on October 7th. According to Harris, there’s moral ambiguity at play in a situation that seems as straightforward as good versus evil, with Hamas donning the black hat and Israel trying to keep a grip on the white one.
While acknowledging Israel’s right to defend itself (a point that seems to take a back seat in her comments), Harris insisted that the manner of defense matters. She doesn’t appear to grasp that when you’re up against a brutal terrorist organization, there isn’t much time for niceties. Does she expect popcorn and a sit-down dinner while Hamas continues its campaign of terror? Let’s be real; their conduct has been deplorable, and yet the VP wants to navel-gaze over tactics rather than address the root cause: terrorism.
In her remarks, Harris called for an immediate cease-fire deal to secure hostages. A noble pursuit, perhaps. However, her statement echoes the old adage, “You can’t negotiate with terrorists.” Harris is holding out hope for a two-state solution while ignoring the fact that Hamas is not a diplomatic organization waving olive branches but a militant group dwelled in animosity and destruction. Yet her idea of peace sounds like a dream state, blissfully unaware of the ground realities that show Hamas isn’t on board with any such arrangement.

It’s entertaining how Harris can spin a narrative that paints the plight of the Palestinians with such sad colors while glossing over the primary villain in this story. She did manage to tie herself loosely to the need for a two-state solution, but that’s a strategy that has been tried and failed in the past. With the current dynamics, suggesting that this is the way forward is like insisting that picking up trash in a junkyard will lead to a five-star Michelin restaurant. Instead of calling out Hamas for their heinous actions, she’s falling back on a trope that likely wouldn’t survive a history lesson.
As the world turns, and Americans ponder where their Vice President’s allegiances truly lie, one can’t help but think her sympathies might just be more aligned with the misguided narratives of the left than the responsibilities that come with leadership. Meanwhile, Netanyahu is left offering a stark reminder that this conflict is as black and white as it gets, and true support for Israel needs clarity, not caution rooted in political correctness.
