One of the candidates from the major parties will win. Period. One will gleefully do what he can to accelerate the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank. Israel has said they're not concerned with Iran, and they shouldn't be with all the weapons the west sends them.

Harris is currently the VP and can't just openly go against the administration she is serving in and therefore is in a tough spot, I'd imagine. Do I think Harris will commit to a weapons blockade or any sort of immediate solution? Absolutely not.

I do, however, think that Harris will 100% be more open to measures to bring about a ceasefire through pressuring Netanyahu and the Israeli state. That's the choice.

Nobody in US politics has a chance to stop the genocide instantaneously. That's the fact. Nobody that will be elected can do that. Harris, I believe, will be far more open to measures that will bring about change.

Is there a perfect option? There never is.
