On the final, and most anticipated, night of the four-day Chicago convention, Harris, 59, promised to chart a “New Way Forward” as she and Trump, 78, enter the final 11 weeks of the razor-close campaign.

After days of protests from Palestinian supporters who were disappointed at not getting a speaking spot at the convention, Harris delivered a pledge to secure Israel, bring the hostages home from Gaza and end the war in the Palestinian enclave.

“Now is the time to get a hostage deal and a ceasefire deal done,” she said to cheers. “And let me be clear, I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself.”

“What has happened in Gaza over the past 10 months is devastating. So many innocent lives lost, desperate hungry people fleeing for safety over and over again. The scale of suffering is heartbreaking,” she said.

    Exactly that. They could katanabomb anyone on the planet if they wanted to…they could gbu-28 Kim jong un in his bunker if they wanted. But that doesn’t help anyone.

    Lemmy does this thing where people jump the “fix” without thinking about the mechanics. Eyes wide open that the western military command is not a benevolent bunch, but there are layers and layers of bullshit that Lemmy folks don’t know, and I don’t know either.
