    But one senior U.S. official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to detail Ms. Harris’s thinking, said that if she won the election and the war were still going on, her policy was not expected to change.

    So she won’t because an anonymous tip says she won’t. No real information as to why that might be. Also, here are a bunch of grossly misleading talking points from the Trump campaign.

    Ace reporting there, NYT. Keep fucking that chicken.

    Not expected to change was my assessment too.

    Halie Soifer, who is now the chief executive of the Jewish Democratic Council of America and served as Ms. Harris’s national security adviser when she was in the Senate, said the vice president had maintained a pragmatic approach to the conflict that is rooted in her longstanding commitment to Israel’s security.

    While according to John Bolton Trump cannot be trusted to protect Israel, as he only acts in self interest, I would only trust John Boltons opinion on what the inside of a prison cell looks like.
