Talk me down.

I really only wish to hear from fellow Jews, please.

I just saw an LBN post about this article:

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/oct/03/tim-walz-muslim-voters

I wanted to see what Walz has said about October 7, and the right of Israel to defend itself. I couldn't find even one thingy he said.

This concerns the F out of me, especially as there is a lot of doubt in the Jewish community about the democratic party right now.

I would love some feedback, please.

3. I checked several sources and Walz's quote that The Guardian included in the article pretty much checks out:

“The scale of death and destruction in Gaza is staggering and devastating. Tens of thousands of innocent civilians killed, families fleeing for safety over and over again. We all know on here, this war must end and it must end now. The vice-president’s working everyday to ensure that, to make sure Israel is secure, the hostages are home, the suffering in Gaza ends now. And the Palestinian people realize the right to dignity, freedom and self determination.”

The Guardian being The Guardian, it takes some effort to find references to hostages and Israel's security in the heap of verbiage they bury them in.
