In a recent article for Newsweek, Lee Zeldin, a former Republican member of the U.S. House of Representatives, expressed serious concerns about Kamala Harris’ policies. Zeldin argues that her actions as a Democratic presidential candidate pose a threat to both the American Jewish community and Israel.
According to Zeldin, the Democratic Party is unable to cope with the growth of anti-Semitism in its ranks, which is reaching dangerous proportions. The politician claims that Kamala Harris, instead of actively opposing these demonstrations, encourages with her actions those who are hostile to Jews. Zeldin notes that Harris could make her position clear by refusing to support those who sympathize with radical movements such as Hamas. But her decisions, he said, make Jewish voters feel insecure under Democratic rule.
In particular, Zeldin mentioned that during an important speech by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the US Congress, Kamala Harris decided to visit a student society and then, despite a personal meeting with Netanyahu, called on Israel to accept the ceasefire proposal, without considering its shortcomings and threats. Zeldin stressed that such a proposal did not guarantee the destruction of Hamas, weakened Israel’s position in the region and did not ensure the return of all hostages, including American citizens.
The politician also drew attention to Harris’s refusal to nominate Josh Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania and a supporter of Judaism, for the post of vice president. Zeldin noted that analysts believe the choice went in favor of the more leftist candidate Tim Walz, confirming Harris’s penchant for supporting radical circles that are openly hostile to the Jewish community.
Zeldin also weighed in on Harris’ policies regarding foreign threats. He noted that the vice president supported the Biden administration’s actions aimed at allocating billions of dollars to Iran, which Zeldin said only served to strengthen the position of the largest state sponsor of terrorism. He stressed that American Jews, both at home and abroad, face growing threats that the current administration is unable or unwilling to adequately respond to.
Zeldin called on American Jews to think about security, which, in his opinion, is at risk due to the policies of the current White House. He believes that in the upcoming elections it is important to support leaders such as Donald Trump and JD Vance, who can restore a sense of security to the country and strengthen the alliance between the United States and Israel.
