Pro-Palestinian activists resent Biden’s administration for funding Israel during its war against Hamas
When Vice President Kamala Harris flies to Chicago next week to accept her party’s nomination for the presidency, she will be met head-on with voters protesting one of her thorniest electoral issues: the Biden administration’s aid to Israel.
Harris has surged in opinion polls since Biden’s July 21 withdrawal from the race, closing the gap with Republican nominee Donald Trump. But some activists say they hold her responsible, to varying extents, for the administration’s Israel policy, and the protests next week will add pressure on her to unite a discontented voter base before Election Day.
According to a Reuters/Ipsos poll in May, some 44 per cent of Democratic registered voters disapproved of Biden’s handling of the war. “We’re going to give a lot more grace than we gave Joe Biden,” Ahmad said. “However, I will emphasize, the clock is ticking and our patience is running out.” “This is not just Palestinians and Arabs and Muslims. We’re talking about tens of thousands of Gen Zers participating, African Americans, Latinos, anti-war protesters from all over the place.”
