Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), who has staunchly supported Israel’s right to defend itself in its war against Hamas, blasted Vice President Kamala Harris after she insinuated a threat against Israel if it pushed forward with an attack on Rafah, Hamas’ last stronghold.
Harris was interviewed on Sunday by Rachel Scott on ABC News’ “This Week,” where Scott prompted her by asking if Israel attacking Rafah would cross a “red line” for the Biden administration.
“We have been clear in multiple conversations and in every way that any major military operation in Rafah would be a huge mistake,” Harris said. “Let me tell you something, I have been studying the maps. There’s nowhere for those folks to go. And we’re looking at about 1.5 million people in Rafah who were there because they were told to go there, most of them. And so we’ve been very clear that it would be a mistake to move into Rafah with any type of military operation.”
When pressed about whether there would be consequences if Israel moves forward with eliminating Hamas inside Rafah, Harris responded: “Well, we’re going to take it one step at a time, but we’ve been very clear in terms of our perspective on whether or not that should happen.”
Scott again pushed Harris to answer the question.
“I am ruling out nothing,” Harris responded.
