We do not know why the Uncommitted Movement was denied a speaking slot or who the decision maker was. All we know is that the Uncommitted Movement got a no. Regardless of who made the decision or why, it was an unforced error from the Democrats.
An endorsement in a speech that never happened is practically moot, even the Mother Jones article makes this abundantly clear.
No where in the article does it say or imply anything to that effect. The Uncommitted Movement released the endorsement to the public. It counts. Especially since their goal was to contest Biden during the Democratic Party’s primary election and not the general election. It’s in their name. Uncommitted in Uncommitted Movement refers to marking the uncommitted option on certain states’ primary ballots. So it doesn’t matter that the DNC made a mistake in not airing the speech. The Uncommitted Movement has made their position known. They support Kamala Harris.
Let’s commit to each other, to electing Vice President Harris and defeating Donald Trump who uses my identity as a Palestinian as a slur.
Defending Israel from Iran doesn’t have to be giving Israel more offensive weapons. It can just be restocking the iron dome and shooting down Iran’s missiles and drones. Democrats are working to negotiate a ceasefire which is essential to stopping the genocide.
What the group, or any people who continue to protest, will see is a president “who is committed to ending the violence, … making sure that we resolve this conflict with a permanent cease-fire that allows Israel to fully secure itself, that fully continues and make sure that we have a full humanitarian aid, but also make sure that Gazans are able to peacefully live and prosper in Gaza,” he said.
A commitment to defend Israel doesn’t have to be an endorsement of genocide. The campaign is onboard with supporting Gaza. This is already a huge departure from Biden’s rhetoric who would barely mention the Palestinians at all. Actual indications are that the next Democratic administration will be better on this issue and certainly better than the Republicans.
The Uncommitted Movement supports Kamala Harris because the Democrats are the best option for the Palestinian people. Kamala has made it clear she wants a ceasefire. Trump stated he’s going to let Israel finish the job, ie finish the genocide. Anyone voting for Republicans or refusing to vote for Democrats either wants the genocide to continue or has been misled by people who do.
