As Netanyahu arrives in Washington, Kamala Harris treads a careful path on Israel and Gaza
As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits Washington, Vice President Kamala Harris finds herself navigating complex dynamics. While Harris may criticize Israel's actions in Gaza, she will also maintain US support.
Both President Joe Biden and Harris will meet with Netanyahu separately at the White House, but Harris will skip his Congressional address, opting to attend an event at an Indiana college instead. The liberal pro-Israel group J Street believes Harris is more likely to criticize Netanyahu than Biden.
Former US NATO representative Ivo Daalder suggests that Harris will prioritize the impact on Gaza civilians. However, not everyone is convinced of Harris's stance.
Dearborn mayor Abdullah Hammoud, from an Arab-majority city, has chosen not to endorse Harris, stating that she does not represent enough of a break from the norm on Gaza. The spotlight is on Harris's views on Israel as Netanyahu's visit unfolds, with her calling for a cease-fire and criticizing the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Biden's popularity among progressives has declined due to his Israel policy, making Harris's approach to the issue all the more scrutinized.
