'A vote for Kamala is a vote for war' - Tulsi Gabbard

The former Democrat congresswoman called Kamala Harris, the Democrat Party, Hillary Clinton, and Republican Dick Cheney, a "warmongering cabal," adding that a vote for Harris equals a vote for endless wars:

"A vote for Kamala is a vote for Dick Cheney, Hillary Clinton, and the woke warmongering cabal. A vote for Kamala is a vote for war, war, and more war — and with it, more infringement on our liberties in the name of 'national security,'" she said on Tucker Carlson's show.

Israel wants US Сongress ‘to put pressure’ on South Africa to scrap ICJ genocide case – report

The Israeli Foreign Ministry has urged members of the US Сongress to make South Africa drop its case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which accuses the Jewish state of violating its obligations under the 1948 Genocide Convention over its months-long operation in the Gaza Strip, Axios reports.

“We are asking you to immediately work with lawmakers on the federal and state level, with governors and Jewish organizations, to put pressure on South Africa to change its policy towards Israel,” the Israeli statement reads.


The Israeli diplomats were instructed to let South African diplomats currently working in the US know that “continuing their current actions like supporting Hamas and pushing anti-Israeli moves in international courts will come with a heavy price” and could lead to a suspension of Washington-Pretoria trade relations.

However, the US is unlikely to follow through with such a drastic measure since Washington seeks to “maintain its relationship with South Africa in order to counter the influence of Russia and China.”

South Africa brought its genocide legal proceedings against Israel in December 2023, and a total of 13 countries, including Spain, Belgium, Egypt and Turkiye, have joined the case since then. Israel has rejected the accusations.
