So, the big story was that pro-Hamas protesters interrupted Kamala’s speech, warning her that they will not support her if she supports Israel:

 "Bizarre response or not, Kamala supporters were in heaven. I see that nagging teacher I hated back in junior high school, but others saw presidential power!" . . .

Events in Detroit show Kamala vainly trying to straddle the Israel v. Hamas line   . . ."Notice that Kamala didn’t challenge the substance of the heckling. Instead, she simply said the equivalent of please, don’t say that out loud because it will keep me out of the White House. Unsaid was the implication that she might indeed abandon Israel if she got into the White House.

. . ."In the Middle East, though, aside from the fact that there’s strong evidence that the whole genocide accusation is a lie, the main issue is whether the US government should support a truly small-d democratic ally that is fighting an existential battle against fanatic Muslims who are members of a designated terror group and proxies for Iran, an American enemy. (Iran has considered itself at war with the US since 1979, as its terrorist acts since then prove.)

"For morally decent people, supporting Israel is a no-brainer. But for the left, which hates Israel, which is a living reminder of the Bible’s moral principles and the fact that there is a power greater than the government, Israel must be erased. Kamala is a leftist who has expressed understanding and empathy for the genocidal pro-Hamas protesters’ feelings, so it’s likely that they’re her real people, which is why she gave the hecklers that weirdly ambiguous put-down.

"Ultimately, America is going to have to take a stand. Biden has managed to avoid it, being senile and all, but the next president must to act. We know that Trump will allow Israel to squash Hamas, which is an enemy of civilization. We suspect Kamala will allow Hamas to squash Israel. For now, though, she must walk that tightrope, and her core pro-Hamas supporters aren’t making that easy for her."
