Harris calls out Biden administration over Israel’s actions in Gaza war
Harris said the Biden and Trump administrations failed to restrain Israel’s war in Gaza, calling the military campaign horrific and urging stronger U.S. leverage.
- Speaking at the Asan Institute for Policy Studies in Seoul, South Korea on Wednesday, Former Vice President Kamala Harris criticized President Biden and President Donald Trump for failing to use leverage to curb Israel's military campaign in Gaza.
- Harris accused the current administration of offering Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a "blank check," while noting the Biden administration—where she served four years—failed to take sufficiently aggressive action as detailed in her memoir, 107 Days.
- Describing the Israel Defense Forces' military campaign as "horrific conduct," Harris argued Washington must uphold its "moral obligation to human rights and international law" in dealing with Gaza.
- The Republican Jewish Coalition called the remarks "unsurprising," citing her opposition to legislation targeting the Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement and her previous calls to halt operations in Rafah, where the Israel Defense Forces rescued hostages.
- Attorney and author Warren Kinsella, who worked on her 2024 campaign, wrote he is "ashamed to have worked with her" following the speech, as Harris considers another White House campaign in 2028.
