Harris' statement for anyone curious, before they accuse her of being pro-Israel for saying this.

Hassan Nasrallah was a terrorist with American blood on his hands. Across decades, his leadership of Hezbollah destabilized the Middle East and led to the killing of countless innocent people in Lebanon, Israel, Syria, and around the world. Today, Hezbollah’s victims have a measure of justice.

I have an unwavering commitment to the security of Israel. I will always support Israel’s right to defend itself against Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups such as Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis.

President Biden and I do not want to see conflict in the Middle East escalate into a broader regional war. We have been working on a diplomatic solution along the Israel-Lebanon border so that people can safely return home on both sides of that border. Diplomacy remains the best path forward to protect civilians and achieve lasting stability in the region.

She, and probably Biden are clearly referencing the American POV. Would I love to see her release another statement telling Netanyahu he has to stop this and give Palestinians freedom? Yeah. But I'm also not going to pretend the US doesn't want to get bad guys who've killed Americans.

Why aren't Israelis or Americans terrorists for killing Americans?

You're going to have to clarify the Americans part, unfortunately we kill each other all the time. As to the Israelis, they aren't targeting Americans. They've killed some while committing war crimes against the Palestinian people but they weren't like, "hey let's go kill an American today." That's probably the big difference between them and Hezbollah.

You haven't clarified any difference

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Not from an international point of view maybe, but from an American one that's a pretty big difference.
