In December 2015, after a husband and wife pair of Islamic terrorists shot up a Christmas party in San Bernardino, Kamala Harris, then the Attorney General of California, convened a session on “Islamophobia” that included the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the Muslim Public Affairs Council and the Muslim Student Association: all of which had defended Islamic terrorists.
With 130 dead in France and 13 murdered in her own state, Kamala gathered a group that included Islamic terror supporters to argue that even after “the recent attacks in Paris and San Bernardino”, it was wrong “to stoke fear and cast aspersions against an entire faith and the millions of law-abiding American Muslims”.
After the Islamic mass murders of over 1,000 Israelis, Kamala returned to pushing “Islamophobia”. In the speech that he delivered three days after the massacres, she urged Biden to include a line about “Islamophobia” because of the way that Muslims had supposedly ‘suffered’ from it after the Islamic terrorist attacks killed thousands on September 11.
Next month in November, she unveiled a push to fight “Islamophobia”, not antisemitism. It was Kamala who pressed Biden to be more open to Islamist groups and their complaints, driving him to profusely apologize for questioning the civilian casualty numbers coming out of Hamas.
And it was she who voiced the highest level criticisms of Israel’s war on Hamas.
In Dubai, Kamala claimed that, “too many innocent Palestinians have been killed. Frankly, the scale of civilian suffering and the images and videos coming from Gaza are devastating.”
This was the rhetoric that Biden would shortly adopt.
In her Dubai speech, Kamala set limits on what Israel could do. There would be no permanent return of Israeli forces to Gaza and no “siege or blockade”. Instead, Gaza would be reconstructed and the terrorist forces of the Palestinian Authority strengthened to take it over.
Kamala’s hostility came as a surprise to some Jewish Democrats who had been sold on the idea of her as an AIPAC supporter and who had mostly seen pictures of her with her Jewish husband, Douglas Emhoff, who has taken the lead in holding conversations about antisemitism.
But whatever Emhoff’s beliefs are, he does not make policy anymore than Jill Biden did under Obama. It’s his wife who actually does make policy and whose biases are becoming clearer.
Kamala has a history of enabling ugly views by Islamic terrorist supporters against Israel.
In 2021, Kamala nodded along at George Mason University as a student ranted that funding for Israel’s anti-missile defense system, the Iron Dome, “hurts my heart because it’s an ethnic genocide”. Then the vice president responded with, “your voice, your perspective, your experience, your truth, should not be suppressed.”
After Rep. Ilhan Omar’s antisemitic “benjamins” comment, Kamala, then a senator, defended Omar, touting the threat of “Islamophobia” and expressing concern that “the spotlight being put on Congresswoman Omar may put her at risk.”
Kamala went on to say that, “there is a difference between criticism of policy or political leaders, and anti-Semitism.”
Most people tended to ignore these remarks because Kamala had a history of inept and clumsy responses, but her reaction to the Hamas attacks shows that they were not accidental.
Since the Oct 7 Hamas atrocities, Kamala has expressed sympathy for Israel, but has also become the administration’s highest profile internal critic, pressuring Biden to be less pro-Israel. A Politico report described how “a person close to the vice president’s office said she believes the United States should be ‘tougher’ on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.”
The problem with Kamala is the same one that manifested after the San Bernardino Christmas Party massacre. Kamala is close to Islamist groups and leftists and sympathetic to their views.
Those views are hostile to Israel and to America, and supportive of Islamic terrorism.
During her time in the California political establishment, Kamala developed a relationship with CAIR and MPAC. And through her sister, Maya Harris, formerly of the ACLU, she may have developed further connections with other leftist and Islamist activists. While Kamala does not have the same Islamic family background as Obama, like him she has closer ties to people from the Muslim world. And, much like Obama, her sympathy leans more toward Islam than Israel.
Like Obama, Kamala tends to speak of Jews in terms of sitcom stereotypes and cliches. She mimics meeting her future mother-in-law in a routine that could have come from SNL’s ‘Verklempt’ sketch, but she has no meaningful connections beyond her marriage to a man whose own daughter raises money for Gaza and identifies as not being Jewish.
Kamala claims that she has a Muslim friend who lost someone in Gaza, but no mention of any Jewish friends who did. After Islamic terrorist attacks, whether in California, France or Israel, Kamala worries more about “Islamophobia” toward Muslims than the suffering of their victims.
In July 2016, Kamala appeared at a Ramadan event at the Islamic Center of Southern California, which spun off the previously mentioned Muslim Public Affairs Council, and whose founders had expressed support for Islamic terrorism, to denounce “Islamophobia”.
A month earlier, an Islamic terrorist had killed 49 people at a nightclub in Florida. Kamala, who was running for the Senate, mentioned this attack among others, including those in San Bernardino and Paris, and blamed them on “mental illness and violent extremism”.
And she claimed that Muslims were suffering from a rash of “Islamophobia” caused by hate.
Kamala’s criticism of Israel for defending itself against Islamic terrorism is just a repetition of the rhetoric that her not especially long political career has trained her to deploy after terror attacks. It doesn’t matter whether the attacks are in America, Israel or anywhere else in the world, instead of siding with the victims, she will claim that the real problem is “Islamophobia”.
While Doug Emhoff reassures the Jews, his wife empathizes with their killers.
Thanks Daniel! She probably thinks it will increase her popularity.
I’m afraid she may be right.
The Lord speaks:
“Kamala you got some splaining to do.”
Thinking is not her thing.
She thinks as she does because she is very, very, stupid. Law degrees and even modest academic achievement in no way indicates intellectual prowess. In fact, today it seems to indicate the exact opposite.
With what we know about colleges, I’d listen to a farmer before listening to this dolt.
No no no…. The moo slims have TONS of money….. The DemoCrap party is bought and paid for with mooooo slim money….. They are owned by moooo slims.
She’s popular with dominion voting machine coders I hear.
One would hope that she is just ignorant and stupid, but this article lays out that it is indeed part of her sick twisted mindset.
Two things can be true at once. She is an imbecile AND she has thoroughly imbibed the Left’s intersectional victimhood narrative in which the world’s sole Jewish nation, with a population of 9 million, is oppressing the world’s 1.3 billion Moslems who are in control of over 40 nations and 40% of the world’s known petroleum reserves. I doubt she could locate Israel on an unlabeled map. She knows as much about the Middle East as her husband does about Hanukkah or, as it shall be known henceforth, The Festival of Caves as, in his telling, that’s where the Jews hid with their oil that lasted 8 days.
“Why Kamala is siding with Islamists over Israel.”
I can distill this article down to one sentence: Kamy hates Jews, likes Muslims, needs to be seen to be “down with the struggle” and, most importantly, she is sort of black.
Watch for Kami (pronounced Commie) to start wearing a hijab to show her support for the terrorists. Isn’t a phobia an irrational fear? Nothing irrational about feeling fear re someone who wants to kill you, much less a group of them.
The possibility that Harris may be the next President of the United States cannot be discounted. Not that she’ll get the necessary votes but the people who count the votes in the critical swing states will certainly work to ensure that outcome, just as they did in 2020. Israel’s ‘Achilles Heel’ is its dependence upon armaments supplied by the US. A President Harris cannot be counted upon to provide those armaments in a time of need for Israel. In fact, it’s highly probable that she would use them to grievously wound Israel, such that its genocide would finally be accomplished by Islam and the world’s hate filled antisemites.
Kamala is simpatico with her Marxist/Muslim friends everywhere. What an attitude for the Vice-President-ish.
Definitely not a pqtriot..
To say the Kamala is “dim witted” is an exaggeration of her “wit”! I’m not sure if a “nit” is even measurable or how it compares to a “tad”, but I’d classify the Kamala as more of a “nit” wit! OR, let’s just face it – she’s terminally stupid! Yes, left on her own to survive she would be gone in a matter of days! And here she is, in all her AA GLORY, telling the most intelligent Nation on Earth what to do! Maybe if we had reacted as we SHOULD have to the FIRST islamic terrorists then there wouldn’t have been others! When the FIRST attack occurred and the islamists celebrated there should have been MASS DEPORTATIONS! Their militant houses of “worship” should have been CLOSED! There should have been a ZERO TOLERANCE for their cries of WORLD DOMINATION! Now look where we are! Who has been pouring INTO Our Nation? It surely isn’t a bunch of helpless women and children! When the fecal matter hits the oscillating device WHO will be there to fight for Our Nation and protect the “innocent”! I think I’d draw a line around the liberals and equip them with necessary arms – maybe some SIGNS and Flags!
She’s a typical pro-crime, pro-terrorist leftist. She does not care for their victims.
She has created in her mind the Left’s alternative reality in which the criminals and terrorists ARE the victims. It’s a mind virus and there is no vaccine.
Dear Camela
Is real is not part of the United States.
You are not Israeli.
It ain’t your job, your position to say what a foreign country should or should not do. Well, I guess you can actually say something, But it will probably be ignored by Israel. Much like your spouse. Much like many in the real world.
Not even Willie Brown was interested in the mental processes of that idiot. As for Emhoff, he evidently raised his daughter to be an antisemite. Expect only more from him.
Nice touch- talking about controlling Israel at a climate control conference.
The vice nitwit‘s back story makes it sound like she’s been groomed as one of Obama’s chosen.
With this war against Israel engineered by Hamas and its world-wide patrons, we see her purpose in Obama’s scheme to destroy America and Israel.
Her voice seemed to tremble a bit from the excitement of the moment as she declared to the world the five commandments for Israel’s destruction.
For debutante Harris, this was her coming-out-as-the-next-president-of-the-crumbling-United States of America moment.
No cackling. No word salad.
Just a ‘crystal clear’, coherent set of orders. Could you hear Obama whispering encouragingly in her ear, “You go girl: Kam for president in ‘24.”
Ridiculous? The Hamas squad tells us that the Muslim/progressive/leftist vote will decide who will be the next president. And they want whom, exactly?
I read that Kam met Doug on a blind date. A fix up in 2013. It was time to get married for professional, political purposes. Doug functions like every anti-Israel, ambitious, appointed in-name-only Jew in the Obama-Biden administrations – an insult, embarrassment and shame to the Jewish people.
She’s a big piece in the Obama legacy puzzle.
And all the pieces, all the people, are so, so scary.
Her so-called husband’s daughter supports Islamic jihad. So they are all on the same Israel hating side.
The moo slims have TONS of money….. The DemoCrap party is bought and paid for with mooooo slim money….. They are owned by moooo slims.
Gazan Arabs baked Jewish babies in ovens, while raping their mothers. Islamophobia is a moral imperative.
Everyone with more brain cells than Dementia Joe, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Hank Johnson or Maxine Waters knows the Dhimmicratic Party is permeated with Jew hating. This has been the case going back to Peanut Dhimmi Carter and greatly excellerated under Barack Hussein Osama. And no one (except perhaps Doug Emhoff, whose own daughter is a Jew hating Hamas supporter) should be surprised that Kamala Harris is no exception to the rule.
Excellent assessment.
She’s siding with the Islamists because BO, the 3rd term termite sides with them.
If .by hook or by crook, Kamala Harris actually does become the next US President, Then I’m glad that I’m no longer a young man and I also will be very sorry for the children of this county.
Border Tsarina Kamala is an ethically and morally degenerative clone of Joe Biden. She holds her position as VP merely because she is insurance against impeachment.
Her record as a S.F. District Attorney, and later A.G. of CA speaks volumnes. No one should mistake her near hysterical countenance for anything but a shrewd facade to mask her inherent evil.
HaHaHa…! We’re not laughing with her but at her! Go back to Willie, Kamala. He knew you could be had for cheap. As do the banksters, George Soros and Planned Parenthood!
Imagine a world without Islam………… Okay, back to the nightmare Islam causes any place it is practiced!
thanks to both sides of politics america is now infested with the cancer of islam . there are no moderate white ants , only fast and slow ones the fast ones kill you outright the slow ones by stealth as they eat away the structure while you sleep . there is no difference between bush or obama both telling the gullible voters that cancer won’t hurt you but to take an aspirin and go back to sleep . america is now under divine judgement and it can’t be rescinded no matter who is in charge . it will just be marginally quicker under democrat control . just think of yellow school buses and venn diagrams . oh ! and by the way , get as much islamophobia as you can because that way you may wake up before the hammer comes down .
