Six months ago, President Biden and Vice President Harris faced pressure from both left-wing critics and moderate voters regarding their stance on Israel amid the Gaza conflict. As the election nears, Prime Minister Netanyahu’s independent military agenda complicates Harris’s campaign, with Trump criticizing the administration’s leadership. The recent vice-presidential debate was overshadowed by Iranian missile threats against Israel. Netanyahu promised retaliation, while Harris condemned Iran’s actions. Her running mate, Tim Walz, emphasized the need for steady leadership, contrasting it with Trump’s focus on trivial matters.
