The Palestinians who lost their lives also lost their voice. We must be their voice. This is why protests are necessary to bring awareness.

I am proud of Ms elabad. I am impressed by her strength of principle and conviction. This is exactly how we have to engage elected officials.

[mckoz]

You are absolutely right you have a right to know what she intends to do

[rixutube]

America supplying weapons to Israel is like Israel supplying weapons to Apartheid S. Africa.

[BarkQaziBiddutNYUSA]

Wow!! Hats off to Ms. Laila for her excellent proposal to VP Harris❤. It is very sad to see all these deaths, inhumane hyenas crimes and tragedy .😢😮😢

Give her time - atrocities that go back to 1948 won’t be rectified overnight. But I think a change is coming as Israel continues to show the world their true natures.

[patriciaeddy]

Guessing, Harris will play deaf over campaign funds, AIPAC.

[PresidentTrista]

I didn't see any other news outlet actually covering the story so thank you Amy Goodman

[warlockpaladin]

Is it so much to ask? Can we simply have people in government who are not constantly simping for Israel?

[hunnybunny]

While wrong... This has always been the United States stance. To blame this on Harris only shows short sightedness and foresight to pick the right battles.

[dianal.clausen]

I just don't know why more Americans aren't upset about Gaza. Is it located too far away?

[gloriache]

Kamala Harris LISTEN to the PEOPLE in NEED. Layla good lucks.

[Mpr]

Kamala will talk with you out of both sides of her mouth about an arms embargo.

[Rondajames-gkbp]
