They've pinned their hopes on her, because who else can they turn to? If your priority is campaigning for an end to the genocide, then of course you'd say that.
Sadly, her national security advisor just tweeted this today, so I'd say those of us who predicted Harris would just take Biden's policy and give it a more sympathetic face are already looking to be proven correct:
Womp womp
Can't say that I'm surprised, just disappointed.
looks like i'll be voting for stein or west after all.

She literally implied Jewish Americans protesting in DC were associates of Hamas and further implied they're Anti-Semites. This was just two weeks ago when Netanyahu was at the Capitol giving a speech to his clapping seals (a record number of standing ovations for genocide). What the fuck are you on about?
Mind you, we are talking about Kamala's statements. Not a random group's that nobody's ever heard of.
It'd be nice to hear it from her own mouth. Also, telling protestors to shut up like that is a bad look.
This has nothing to do with religion. The genocide is targeting Palestinians, not Muslims. Christian and atheist Palestinians are being murdered, kidnapped, and tortured the same as all Palestinians.
Neither did the text I had in bold you numpty. Let me know when you put down the goalposts again and we’ll have another kick
