I loved how Josh Shapiro, relatively center-left, Democrat governor of Pennsylvania, energetic and eloquent and the logical choice to lock up a key must-have swing state, how Shapiro even distanced himself from his former stated pro-Israel stance, that [rightly] a two-state solution is impossible because the Palestinians can not be trusted and will always break any agreement.
But Josh Shapiro basically abandoned Israel to align politically with Kamala Harris, in anticipation of being selected as the logical VP choice, saying he now favors a "two-state solution" .
Which given the bloodthirsty Jew-killing tendencies of Palestinians over the 45 years of my adult life, breaking every cease-fire for decades, the Palestinians are infinitely unworthy of being given their own state for the next 100 years, and likely the next 1,000 years.
Any concession by Israel toward peace with the Palestinians is perceived as weakness by Palestinians, that just invites the next rocket attack on Israel, invites the next suicide bombing, invites the next tunnel raid or para-glider raid into Israel, to kill more Israeli civilians.
But Shapiro lowered himself to supporting that "two-state" impossible lie, to appeal to Kamala Harris, who had just snubbed Netanyahu when he was in the U.S. just a few weeks ago. Josh Shapiro aligned himself with that open anti-semitism. Which is to say, abandoning Israel and witholding U.S. military supplies, to pressure Israel not to finish off Hamas, so Hamas can rebuild and attack Israel over and over again.
And also advocates kidnapping another 42 American hostages too, I guess.
And the beauty of it is... Shapiro humiliated himself for nothing,
Kamala Harris picked crazy-left Tim Walz over him anyway
Shapiro might think this will blow over by 2028 or 2032, and he will be better off not having been selected to lose on a Kamala Harris ticket. But a Jewish politician abandoning Israel is not something a Jewish voter base is likely to forget. I think he has destroyed his political future.
