An Open Letter
To: V.P. Harris
From: A verified voter in Issaquah, WA
September 29
Why are you doing this? Why are you arming and funding Israel when they are massacring children in Gaza and Lebanon? Why are you making us witness murder and destruction being funded by our taxes instead of spending that money helping our communities affected by hurricane Helene? Why are you acting like a Republican? I voted for you, voted blue down the ballot. And I feel so much shame that my country and my government is doing this and acting righteous about it. And like ignorant fools at press meetings saying they're waiting for more info or we're letting Israel investigate themselves, despite there being notable video proof of what's happening. We're allowing a criminal to "investigate" their own crimes. What have we turned into? And you're funding this while most Americans have said we don't want a genocide. And if you're going to sneer at the word genocide, then at least recognize the majority of us would prefer our taxes to be spent on our communities. On our infrastructure, healthcare, daycares, the education of our children, etc. Not on bombs for a foreign army. Are you okay with your reputation being destroyed by this? Because nobody will remember anything else about you, just the fact that you armed and supported Israel in massacring people. Why are you supporting this despite this being such a racist genocide? You have the power to stop it and you won't. Why are you making me watch children the age of my children be murdered? I am both ashamed of voting for you and disappointed in you as a woman of color. I thought to do and be better than this. Better than saying you support Israel defending itself, but not Gaza or Lebanon defending themselves. Please please pray and talk to God and ask him to guide you. May He make you see that this is not the way to peace or anything good. Please stop this madness, Kamala. I am begging you to please help the world and protect children. Stop arms and funds to Israel, they have lost the plot and are only making the world less safe for everyone. And if your excuse is that you can't so much because you're the vice president, remember words have power and you could call for a ceasefire and a weapons embargo. We will lose swing States otherwise and your dream of being a president won't come to be. I will not vote for you, or anyone who hasn't called for an end to this madness unless you call for a ceasefire before the elections. If Trump wins, that's on you. Just for context, I am a woman of color who is normally criticized for being too moderate. And between 35-40 years old. I own my home and work full time while I parent small children. I am married and consider myself Catholic. And this would be my first time not voting or voting third party. Which I will do down the ballot unless you do the actual neutral thing and call for a ceasefire and weapons embargo. We can't claim neutrality and arm one side. Your soul is not worth anybody's donation or support. Please do the right thing.
