brooklyn13: Guess this is the only time I ever agreed with conix: But the use of the word "slut", is not called for. And in Texas we would have to go outside, to have a little word about it!!!! Do I make myself clear!!!!
I’m an American, what the fuck is my “nationalism”?
Well, it sure seems you never have a problem with Netanyahu and Israel, no matter how much they embarrass our president. Now whose side are you going to take?
Tensions Escalate: The US contemplates ‘consequences’ for Israel.
Harris says US has not ruled out 'consequences' if Israel invades Rafah "There's nowhere for those folks to go," the vice president tells ABC.
Israeli offensive in Rafah 'would be a mistake': Vice President Kamala Harris
In a wide-ranging new interview with ABC News, Vice President Kamala Harris suggested there could be "consequences" for Israel if it moves ahead with a planned invasion of Rafah in its pursuit of Hamas fighters.
The city, on Gaza's southern border with Egypt, is thought to currently have some 1.4 million people in it.
According to the U.N., many Palestinians fled there from elsewhere in the territory amid the ongoing war, sparked by Hamas' Oct. 7 terror attack.
"We have been clear in multiple conversations and in every way that any major military operation in Rafah would be a huge mistake," Harris told ABC News' Senior Congressional Correspondent Rachel Scott in part of the interview that aired Sunday on "This Week."
"Let me tell you something: I have studied the maps. There's nowhere for those folks to go," Harris said.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said earlier this month he'd approved a plan to invade Rafah, an announcement that prompted President Joe Biden to relay what the White House called "deep concerns" about the safety of the many civilians sheltering in the city.
Tens of thousands of people have died in Gaza so far, according to the Hamas-run health ministry there.
Netanyahu has maintained that going into Rafah is necessary to dismantle Hamas in the wake of their attack; Israeli forces also insist they can move civilians out of the battlegrounds and toward "humanitarian islands" -- but the U.S., which is a major supporter of Israel's military, has sharply
criticized the possibility of a large-scale incursion.
Scott on Sunday pressed the
vice president, asking if America would consider "consequences" if Netanyahu went forward -- something he said he was willing to do despite the opposition.
"Well, we're going to take it one step at a time, but we've been very clear in terms of our perspective on whether or not that should happen," Harris said.
Scott followed up: "Are you ruling out that there would be consequences from the United States?"
"I am ruling out nothing," Harris replied.
In the interview, Harris was also asked about Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer's call for new elections in Israel, which Netanyahu decried as "wholly inappropriate" meddling in his country's politics.
