Kamala’s position was to strive for a ceasefire,

And it was an obvious lie, because she wouldn't commit to an arms embargo or sanctions or any kind of consequences. She was just lying so that liberals could pretend like they weren't voting for genocide.

Quite impressive how you can read minds and see the future.

"Ceasefire" was turned into a joke to mean "a temporary pause to get the Israeli hostages back" and there were zero commitments to making Israel face any consequences for it's crimes. Furthermore, she basically pledged to be exactly the same as Biden and Biden is vehemently against an arms embargo. On top of all that, the administration condemned the ICJ and more recently the ICC.

Dunno, seems pretty obvious.
