Harris Makes Her Stance On Gaza War CLEAR In CNN Interview

let's get the hostages out let's get the ceasefire done but no change in policy in terms of arms and and so forth no I we have to get a deal done so that right there was one of the few very direct specific needed questions during the CNN interview with KLA Harris a lot of it was Social Media stuff and trying to create viral moments but that question about will there be a change in policy from Joe Biden to commel Harris was important I think a lot of people were waiting to find that out and now we know and that by the way was the second attempt from Dana Bash to get kamla Harris to explain what her policy will be what she thinks about this topic what's happening in Gaza and so why don't we go to the the first answer would you do anything differently for example would you withhold some Us weapons shipments to Israel that's what a lot of people on the Progressive left want you to do uh let me be very clear I am unequivocal and and unwavering in my commitment to Israel's defense and its ability to defend itself and that's not going to change but let's take a step back October 7 1,200 people were massacred many young people who were simply attending a music festival women were horribly raped as I said then I say today Israel had a right has a right to defend itself we would and how it does so so matters far too many innocent Palestinians have been killed and we've got to get a deal done so I think uh that's pretty clear it's fairly consistent with the uh convention address that kamla Harris gave and I think for a lot of people that wanted to see literally any movement or Evolution on this policy I think they're going to be very disappointed by what they heard right there now she goes on in further comments to say that she supports a uh two-state solution but um before we throw to our commentary I will just say that it becomes very meaningless to say too many people have died that's supposed to mean something it's supposed to imply that no more should but if you're not willing to change anything then no too many people haven't died Not to cause any effect actually too many have died for you to not have to say that I guess but not to actually do anything about it certainly not to do anything that would result in fewer people dying and when someone is saying way too many civilians have died maybe let's not send the arms that are disproportionately killing civilians and then you say let me be clear I stand for Israel's ability to defend itself those two topics have literally nothing to do with them I know that we are participating this sort of cultural delusion that those are closely tied together nothing about this involves defense there's there's no defense maybe the immediate response to the horrific uh acts in October were a defense we're months away from anything within sight of defense this is offense this is criminal offense and and look if she wanted to be clear that like you know maybe on some level for humanitarian reasons I think that we should probably not do this but it's just too difficult politically I'd be criticized I can't afford it then you could be clear about that but the way that she's explaining it I find to be about as unacceptable as the lack in change in policy and not to say she's a terrible candidate hate the candidate understand people seem to believe that you have to agree with either everything that a politician does or pretend that you do by not addressing some of the issues or if you criticize them you want them to lose and I think I've been very clear that I don't but that was not a good answer particularly coming as it is as the followup to a speech that a lot of people who care about what's happening in Gaza found to be unacceptable hey don't scroll away come back come back because before the video continues we just want to urge you to lend your support to tyt you power our honest reporting you do it at tyt.com team and we love you for it first let me question the framing um danab bash said you know here's what people on the Progressive left want you to do no no look it isn't about Progressive left or the right wi or any part of the wing it's if you want a ceasefire you have to use your leverage if you're not using your leverage you're saying I don't actually want a ceasefire so it doesn't have anything to do with where you are in the political Spectrum it has to do with do you have common sense do you understand how politics Works do you understand how the world works if you have leverage in anything and you choose not to use it that's you saying I don't mind so when she KLA Harris then Answers by saying we're doing everything we can to get to a ceasefire that is literally a lie and there's no one that can say that it's not a lie because if you're not using the leverage that would make all the difference in the world and all the leverage that we have and you're not using any of it the Leverage we just gave them $26 billion and didn't ask for anything in return we could have asked for a ceasefire in return that would have been a very very very reasonable ask by the way we could have asked for a two-state solution in return but of course we'll never ask for any of those things because kamla Harris Joe Biden Donald Trump and almost everyone involved in American politics is 100% lying about this it's not look the only other possible explanation is they just don't know anything about the world they're totally cool they like let average what you mean if I give somebody $26 billion they might I might be able to get something back I don't I don't understand that concept well then obviously you shouldn't be president CU you're a bing idiot if you believe that and both of the major party candidates are pretending that they don't understand that concept no they understand it and they're lying to you on purpose I want to get more into this but Francesa what you want to say yeah no I just want to double down on that I I do think the framing is also bogus because according to a CB BS poll in June uh 63% of all Americans believe that we should temper military aid to Israel and it goes up to 77% of Democrats so miss me with this Progressive left the as if we're extremists over here because we're not it's the majority of Independence and it's the majority of Democrats right so like I don't even know what we're talking about anymore but the second the question then to followup is isn't tempering Aid isn't withholding a certain amount of military aid part and parcel of achieving ceasefire exactly what Jen is explaining this is part of being a commander-in-chief now my real question when I saw this whole answer I appreciated her saying how they do so matters I think there's wiggle room there this is how we where we fight those of us who believe in human rights or Palestinians but my question more broadly is what role is Kam Harris actually playing in this we know that Joe Biden is an unmitigated pro-israel Zionist if you will whatever they do what no matter whether it's bombing hospitals children Ty zip tying uh doctors and sarily assassinating them and then burying them in a mass grave hunky dory all good that's part of Defense right we know that's Joe Biden so here's my very generous take on kamla Harris she's not in the room she's not in in these decision Mak making uh uh situations it's blinkin it's Austin it's Biden but my question is if you're not in the room if this is not up to you what is in it for you right now to not show a little bit of daylight between you and Joe Biden or are you truly just governed at this point by a lot of fear from the Israeli Lobby that I think that's where I want to go with you know with why are we doing this guys look this is not a question it's I it's so frustrating to have nonsense debates in politics the donors control everything everything the only thing that passes is either that's stuff that is a win-win for donors and voters and that's your you're super lucky to get that like the infrastructure Bill where okay we're going to get some new roads and bridges but private corporations and the unions that donate to poish are going to just make a killing they're going to make an unbelievable amount of money and privatize some of our roads and make and and just use us as indenture server for the rest of our lives Etc right so that's true in every category in every issue the only other thing that's allowed is release valves oh okay the the population is about to explode here let's take away pre-existing conditions because they're in a rage right so that's how our politics works so when she says let me be clear I unequivocally and unwaveringly uh am going to support Israel's defense what is she's saying is let me be clear I work for the donors period period there's no other factor it's not like kamla Harris while she was growing up in Oakland with a Jamaican dad and an Indian mom and in a you know uh generally Progressive atmosphere thought you know what I hate Palestinians I love Israelis God I'm such a Zionist right in my heart Zionism blooms for no apparent reason when I have no connection to it right no she doesn't care about Zionism one way or another honestly she doesn't care about Israel one way or another there's only one thing she cares about campaign checks if that breaks your heart you're so late to the to understanding American politics I love you but you really are whether you're on the right or the left wake up snap out of it it doesn't mean that they're all equal K to John's Point KLA Harris is going to appoint different Supreme Court Justices there's plenty of reasons to support her over the maniac lunatic named Donald Trump but on this issue if you're saying like oh no no no no no no my candidate is an angel she's perfect so if she says APAC is where her heart lies not because she got paid she's gotten 5 million from APAC already and that's when she was running for president okay Joe Biden got $1 million from APAC and on and on it goes no this is pure and utter corruption it's also heartlessness it's Kam haris saying I don't care about the Palestinians at all this is I'm using this interview as a way to broadcast to the donors I'm open for business no matter how much you Slaughter the Palestinians send me the checks and I'll send you a thousand times in return from the American taxpayers and that's what this is there's no that's 100% what of what this is if you think there's 5% something else you're totally wrong it's corruption defined so unless the only other possible explanation is everyone in involved Dana Bash KLA Harris Donald Trump all of them just the dumbest people you've ever met in your life you're like money oh people care about money I didn't know that I I thought it wouldn't make any difference at all if we use our leverage I well okay then please you're got you're you're embarrassing totally embarassing So when you say I care about the Palestinian people and you say I won't use an ounce of my leverage which I have an overwhelming amount against Israel what you're really saying is I don't care about the Palestinian people as all I'm doing absolutely nothing to help them and as long as the check's clear I'm going to allow this defense defense that was 11 months ago man so you want to do defense 11 months ago 10 months ago we could to have a conversation debate about that now 11 months later over nearly 41,000 dead 93,000 injured 85% of the population displaced now we're going to do a story in a minute on the show about how they're back to bombing uh human rights workers uh summarily executing them have killed more human rights workers and reporters than all other conflicts combined on planet Earth and they're back to blocking the trucks coming in with Aid and starving the Palestinian people and you're talking about defense and now they're going into the West Bank in a large scale operation and they've bombed three foreign capitals and you're talking about defense only only the people who have been brainwashed by mainstream media would believe such utter nonsense and Dana Bash sorry she's been good on other things but here she is consistently embarrassing so you you don't like like you don't understand the concept of Leverage you didn't think to ask a follow-up question on that instead you framed it as the progressive left and by Progressive left of course Dana Bash is signaling to her mainstream audience the radicals the Israel is great and holy and moral and all the good decent Americans believe in funding Israel's defense 11 months later but the radical left you you're not going to appease the radical left are you KLA Harris that was the framing of the question and the reality is as we just pointed out that's nonsense on a logical level and as Franny explains 63% of Americans are apparently radical left so thanks for that 77% of Democrats under 30 I mean this is all just going to blow up as College reconvenes you know um and students go out there and protest again in KLA Harris throws them under the Buns bus once again for standing up for people's right to just simply live U but John I know we have to keep going yeah we I just I want to say one or two things so first of all as many people know the best defense is a good offense so from a certain frame of mind also and look especially coming off of the sarcastic comment I just made a lot of people are going to watch this and say you guys are being unfair saying that there this isn't defense or whatever you're just being unfair because it's them you'd only do this if it was them do you understand that Russia says that they need to occupy and Conquer Ukraine to defend themselves that it's for their National Security they say it because that's what countries do by the way how many years did tyt criticized the United States government for the invasion and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan which was defended by politicians on both sides of the aisle and the media as being necessary for a National Defense yeah they always do this no no part is going to be like we just really love conquering them it's awesome they always say it's a defensive thing we are simply definitionally not being unfair the network was founded on this sort of criticism and not of Israel and then finally you said um you know some people might like delude themselves into thinking that Kamala has obviously she has a great position on this because I like her so she must have a great position I think some people might do that but I think a more common response is just let's just not talk about it let's just pretend like we'll we'll talk about the things we like which we do and then for the things that we don't sh everyone shut up don't say and I that bothers me more even like I still remember uh Captain Jean Luke peard telling Wesley Crusher the first duty of a Starfleet officer is to the truth because if you don't have that then what do you have how can you think of yourself as being Superior in literally any other way it's your enemies if it's founded on lies now look you can go too far in the other direction we could do two hours on this every day and just hammer and Hammer and try to get her not elect like that might be unfair but in the same way that we give her credit when she does something or takes a position that we like why are we just going to pretend that that she's not doing things we don't now I there is an answer to that by the way it's because um your commentary will be more pure and people will like it more there are there are networks you can watch that will literally only say positive things about Trump or about Harris or whatever um we choose to dwell in this unappreciated uh realm where we both criticize and L I just really quickly want to say that I do think Jen you're absolutely right about the amount of money and it is there but I also think that the ideological commitment that Joe Biden has to Israel uh is not necessarily there with kamla Harris although it can be bought and you've said that in state of the case very well I just want to give everyone some hope in saying that we have to to make it more politically toxic to throw down with the likes of APAC than to throw down with international law and that is what organizers uh the world over but particularly in this country have been doing the progressive Jews who are saying not in our name the students the Muslims the Arabs everybody the uncommitted uncommitted delegates it is not a done deal history has not yet been written on this we are fighting for it every damn day so many of you wrote in already and I appreciate all of our members was weighing in and uh and you guys are you know all have good points to make and and you're on our side and but Mikey 3343 wrote in on Super Chat uh let me fo be foolishly hopeful maybe Harris is saying this to avoid APAC trying to crush her candidacy and once she wins she can use her leverage Mikey I love your brother but that's there's no chance of that about a zero% chance she's these folks never turn around after they win the election it's a logical thing for you to hope for like well they don't need the money anymore they're the president and if they run for re-election they're going to have all the money in the world because of free media cuz they're the president they have the bully pulpit they could choose to they never do it and they're like oh what about our party and my the house members need bribes and the Senators need bribes and what if APAC spends a whole hundred million on Republicans no no no no no we bow we bow we bow so there's after hearing that answer she will definitely unless there's some massive SE change in American politics she will not move one inch in fact as somebody another member wrote in like this just means whatever Israel asks for for the next four years KLA Harris has a blank check ready to send them period she will not question a dollar of what they asked for thanks for watching The Young Turks really appreciate it another way to show support is through YouTube memberships
