The Republican candidate noted that the U.S. has imposed taxes and tariffs on Chinese imports, attempted to ban the app TikTok, and disrupted tech supply chains. These measures, he believes, are provocative and unnecessary. He has urged for respect and restraint, suggesting that wars have often started with seemingly harmless nationalistic policies.
"We call for an investigation of the [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu regime's war crimes, as well as the role of Biden and US leaders in aiding and abetting them," said Dr. Stein. "And above all, these crimes must stop now." Dr. Stein blasted Democratic and Republican party leaders including Mike Johnson, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries for standing together at a rally where speakers including Johnson denounced calls for a ceasefire while the crowd approvingly chanted "no ceasefire."
“‘No ceasefire’ is a call for ‘More dead children’,” said Dr. Stein “I stand against the Democratic and Republican allies of war profiteers and AIPAC, demanding #CeasefireInGazaNOW.”
Sadly, eight decades later, Antisemitism--and hate in general--is on the rise in our country and around the world. On October 7, Hamas, a brutal terrorist organization, committed the worst atrocity against the Jewish people since the Holocaust--killing 1,200 innocent people, including 44 Americans, taking 240 people hostage, including eight Americans still in Gaza, and committing horrific acts of sexual violence against Jewish women.
And, in recent days in the United States, we have seen hateful rhetoric and harassment against Jews. This is Antisemitism and must be condemned unequivocally. Hate of any kind has no place in our country.
The Vice President urged the Iraqi government to prevent attacks against US personnel and expressed appreciation for efforts to date. She stated that the US has no higher priority than the safety of US personnel, and will act, as needed, in self-defense.
The leaders also discussed the importance of continuing the US-Iraq Higher Military Commission, which will enable the transition to an enduring bilateral security partnership between the US and Iraq and is the natural next step to build on the collaboration of the past 10 years between Iraq and the Defeat ISIS coalition.
"Ultimately, through the regional track and the Palestinian track, this path I've described opens up prospects for Israel to build enduring security--which is what this country needs and has wanted from its founding. All of this runs through securing a sustainable ceasefire in Gaza now, as President Biden has proposed, and we should all be working to achieve."
