Harris Trump Debate Focuses on Israel Policies

As the first debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump approaches, critical questions regarding the Israel-Hamas conflict and U.S. foreign policy are set to be addressed. Trump's campaign has attacked Harris, claiming that if she wins, Israel will cease to exist, while Harris's campaign rebuts this by emphasizing her unwavering support for Israel and condemnation of antisemitism. Former Anti-Defamation League director Abe Foxman asserts that voters should prioritize candidates' actions over rhetoric, highlighting Harris's record as an ally to Israel. In contrast, he expresses concern over Trump's past comments and actions regarding Jewish Americans and Israel. The ongoing Israel-Hamas War and rising antisemitism frame the significance of these candidates' positions, underscoring the stakes in the upcoming election for Jewish voters and Israeli allies. As the debate nears, clarity on their foreign policy stances will be pivotal for voters.
