No one will go any further that Kamala's call for a "temporary cease fire so all the hostages can be freed". They might even mention "humanitarian relief": but that would be a "bold statement".

And her delivery of those remarks while commemorating Bloody Sunday in Selma Alabama was a cynical insult to history.

How weak of Kamala to only call for a temporary ceasefire. The ceasefire should be a permanent one.

This week, California really showed its arse, and as a life-long Californian, it's embarrassing.

I thought Harris's contribution was a cat's paw, an experiment to see what can be gotten away with. The insanity of the Gaza massacres has probably occasioned some factional disputes among our rulers given its high cost, but they don't know how to play it yet.

I saw it as a sop, a moral figleaf that fooled only those who actively wish to be fooled.

I think a sop would be more innocent. There is no excuse or mitigation for Biden, but I think his handlers are experimenting with ways to possibly get him off the karmic hook. What a job!
