A senior Israeli official expressed concern that Kamala Harris’ remarks on Thursday about the Israel/Gaza conflict may have jeopardized Israel’s potential for negotiating a hostage deal with Hamas.
Following her meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Vice President Harris stated in a press conference that she urged him to end the Gaza war and secure a ceasefire agreement swiftly.
“It is time for this war to end in a way where Israel is secure, all the hostages are released, the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza ends and the Palestinian people can exercise their right to freedom, dignity and self determination,” she said.
“And as I just told Prime Minister Netanyahu, it is time to get this deal done. Let’s get the deal done. So we can get a ceasefire to end the war. Let’s bring the hostages home. And let’s provide much needed relief to the Palestinian people.”
The Israeli official stated that Netanyahu was upset over Harris’ comments regarding a ceasefire and her criticisms of Israel’s “humanitarian crisis.”
The official also said that there was a ‘misalignment’ in the messaging between the U.S. and Israel.
On the flip side, the same official claimed the meeting with Biden went well, helping move towards a hostage deal.
“Hopefully, the remarks Harris made in her press conference won’t be interpreted by Hamas as daylight between the U.S. and Israel, thereby making a deal harder to secure,” the source told the Times of Israel.
From the Times of Israel:
The senior Israeli official says the meeting with Biden was productive and helped move efforts to secure a hostage deal in a “positive direction.”
The official does not make a point of describing Netanyahu’s meeting with Harris in the same manner.
According to an Israeli official, Jerusalem had been uncomfortable with Harris’s tone throughout her remarks and thought they overly stressed the importance of ending the war in a manner that appeared to show the US and Israel not in lockstep.

“It is time for this war to end in a way where Israel is secure, all the hostages are released!”….Knees-up should have quit there!
“Presidential candidate Kamala Harris received her first political role thanks to Willie Brown, 30 years her senior. Placing Camala on the California Medical Assistance Commission in 1994, Brown paid her over $70,000, which equates to $120,700 in today’s economy. The commission met twice a month, which Harris missed around 20 percent of the time, according to records obtained by The Washington Examiner.”
“In June 1994, Harris left her job of four years in Alameda County as a deputy prosecutor at the district attorney’s office to work for Brown. He appointed her to the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board, where she made $97,000, or equivalent to $167,000 in 2019.”
“She resigned five months later only to be appointed to the California Medical Assistance Commission by Brown. He wrote Harris a letter stating that he was “pleased to appoint” her to the board.”
“State records at the time indicated that “members of the committee had to be “selected from persons with experience in management of hospital services, risk management insurance or prepaid health programs, the delivery of health services, the management of county health systems, and a representative of recipients of service.”
Both boards are reserved for political payback or occasionally for personal rewards for personal service.”
“According to her resume , Harris had no background or history in the medical field. The closest experience she had was a volunteer position at a hospital fundraising group and checking Speaker Brown for a hernia.”
“Loving” the speaker has its rewards.
She was a-dickted to Brown’s Willie.
To put it as kindly as I can, harris is an idiot!!!!! if she had a brain she would take it out and play with it!!!!! Put her brain in a matchbox and it would roll around like a BB in a boxcar!!!!! Anyone who votes for her is as stupid as she is!!!!!!!!!!
She’s good at blowing things. Willie Brown’s brown willie agrees!
