Kamala Harris Faces Pressure from US Voters to Shift Policy on Gaza Amid Democratic Convention
ai generated text
The Democratic National Convention in Chicago featured a symbolic vote to crown Kamala Harris as the party's candidate in the US presidential elections, with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. However, some delegates expressed disapproval of President Joe Biden's response to the war in Gaza, with some covering their mouths during his speech. Uncommitted delegates have called for Kamala Harris to support a Gaza ceasefire. A group of Palestinian American delegates staged an impromptu sit-in outside the convention center, advocating for a permanent immediate ceasefire, an arms embargo, and other measures to support the Palestinian people.
This is what's called a real stupid, boneheaded mistake, to end up literally dumping on your own story that ought to be about the convention and Kamala Harris and hope and joy and all that. And instead, we're talking about a dumb mistake made by consultants to exclude Palestinian voices.
At this moment, 109 treasured human beings are being held hostage by Hamas in Gaza.
