Speaking with “60 Minutes” correspondent Bill Whitaker, Harris was asked which nation she considers “to be our greatest adversary.”
“I think there’s an obvious one in mind, which is Iran,” Harris replied. “Iran has American blood on their hands. This attack on Israel, 200 ballistic missiles.”
“What we need to do to ensure that Iran never achieves the ability to be a nuclear power, that is one of my highest priorities,” she added.
Whitaker followed up, asking, “If Iran is building a nuclear weapon, would you take military action?”
“I’m not going to talk about hypotheticals at this moment,” said the vice president.
So Iran building nuclear weapons was the greatest adversary and also a hypothetical.
Libs hate the very idea of bombing Iran now though.
I personally think that with harris as president they would have escalated more than they currently have
They would’ve gone through the “legal” channels with unanimous approval from congress/aipac
they would’ve bothered to find another colin powell to lie to the UN
I think we would’ve been directly at war with Iran weeks ago
I could swear I read about a Yemen invasion plan the Biden admin had ready to go in January if they’d won
Does anybody else hate the way the media in lib “democracy” interviews politicians? And frames “debate” on TV? It all has this fake kayfabe about it, and always feels off.
you’re correct in that feeling cause it is fake lol
Under Kamala:
- “We have intelligence that says Iran has WMDs”
- “We’re forming a committee to assess action”
- “The committee of Iraq and Afghanistan war criminals deems that we should strongly consider action. I am taking this under consideration.”
- “We’re going to increase military presence in the area while we decide.”
- “We’re going to tactically target nuclear proliferation sites using Raytheon’s new LLM designed and guided missiles.”
- You are here
Same shit.
I hate America so much
People who didn’t vote finally vindicated lol
finally
Continually
It feels good not to be a genocide supporter. Well, it doesn’t feel bad, and these days that’s pretty good.
Fair and true
“Iran must be prevented from developing nuclear weapons, and instead be given some of ours. We have way too many.”
In an alternate timeline where KKKamala is currently head of the regime, all the libs who now claim to be disgusted by “Trump’s uNcOnStItUtIoNaL war on Iran” would be cheering and accusing each one of us of antisemitism and being terrorist supporters.
Harris would’ve had access to the same intel for the entire Biden administration as Gabbard did when she said Iran hasn’t pursued a nuke since 2002. Warmongering with Iran specifically, and murdering Muslims generally, is the shared value of all American politics. Obama solidified it as bipartisan.
People on here pissed they’ve been dead ass wrong about ‘handing it’ to the racist maga coalition for being anti-war
Did everyone forget Suleimani?
It’s kinda wild how many people’s reactions to this is “Kamala would have been worse” like motherfucker there is no worse at this point
Insane levels of cope when nobody ask for the cope about some hypothetical considering the literal event is happeni g right now.
This being the top post is so dumb
I’m sorry if my posts bother you. I never had any expectation that Trump would improve a single thing. I would never vote or support for someone remotely like him in any way. I am only trying to remind the libs about what they should have had a problem with when democrats were in power, if they have a problem with it now. Because this stuff was really upsetting to me at the time and I don’t think libs remember it.
The libs are literally irrelevant right now, in 4 years they did nothing against Iran comparable to the Suleima i murder
Every ash ketchum (us politician) needs their gary oak (third world country they want to bomb more so than other third world countries)
Why is she painted as the bad guy now that Donald Trump is fucking everything up? Trump went and bombed Iran, not Kamala. Why the fuck are they talking about Kamala now?
“If KaMAlA WeRe PrESiDenT, we’d Be aT BRunch!”

Because libs are taking the moment to say “I told you so” about Trump being uniquely evil and starting a war.
she isnt painted as the bad guy. she’s painted as the good guy while also being the bad guy. this post is to show that despite what all the liberals say about how things would have been different, just like with gaza and israel, you look at her position and its exactly the same as trump’s
any liberal lamenting the loss of harris has been proven wrong yet again and that’s the point. the election was all a show. the same capitalist powers controlling trump control kamala. the only difference is that kamala would have been sending trans bomber pilots
sending trans bomber pilots
to a pit in antarctica. let’s not get ridiculous here.
nah kamala would love to sacrifice a trans person’s well being while painting it as her being progressive and inclusive
damn that’s an extremely valid point. objection rescinded.
The article is from October, if you’re asking why it’s being posted here now I’m guessing it’s to show that Kamala may have done the same thing.
indeed. iran is a bipartisan issue, same as border fascism. a harris administration would perhaps not do literally the same things like this or specific ICE raids, but they absolutely would be (and campaigned on) doing more border fascism than republicans and given the fall of syria, iran was going to be next up on the decades long project of destabilizing and subjugating the region.
we can look at secretary clinton, france, and the destruction of libya as a model for how the same ends are achieved in a brunch-safe way.
a harris administration would perhaps not do literally the same things like this or specific ICE raids,
I mean…
ICE would be deporting twice as many people, but they’d be quieter about it and the media would be dead silent on the topic. They wouldn’t be letting “the cruelty is the point” get in the way of ruthless efficiency.
the brunch crowd cares about the optics too much for them to do exactly the same things.
Facts
Harris would do it with decorum. A classy bombing, and polite ice raids

Whataboutism is when you point out facts that inconvenience people who would rather not face them

You voted for Kamala Harris to continue a genocide. You can’t separate that action from any other action her administration would have taken. You are a genocide supporter.
Trump is not selling federal lands to real estate developers. If you had a political memory that held more than the past two weeks of r/politics threads, you would know that is a long-term goal of libertarians going back to, at least, the 70s. You know what else was a thing in the 70s? Fucking with Iran. All this stuff Trump does is just shit other ghouls bring to his desk. He’s not personally coming up with these ideas.
If having Democrat presidents is the key to stop this long-term plan, why the fuck hasn’t it been stopped? Let’s just go with Obama. What did Obama do to stop this? He let a militia hold federal land and get away with it. What did Clinton do? What did Carter do? How come voting for Democrats didn’t work all this time but Kamala would have been the one to do it? Did she say anything during the campaign about bolstering the protection of federal lands? Did you write her a letter asking what her plans were since your hiking trails are the only thing keeping you alive?
Now apply this to every fucking issue. Healthcare, drugs, crime, war, immigration. Somehow the most recent Democratic nominee was the key to stopping all the bad shit in the world but none of the previous Democratic presidents bear any blame for not stopping it earlier. I didn’t even bring up Biden, the most recent Democratic president, because he did NOTHING. He was a husk in a chair, staring out of the window the whole time. So even when Kamala was VP, she didn’t do shit to help federal lands. Fuck you.
Also, if having access to federal land is the only thing keeping you alive, buy a gun and go defend it. You have nothing to lose. You either get to keep access to the land or you die, which you were going to do anyways.
I’m losing the only thing that matters to me
If you have been fine with genocides and other atrocities that your empire has been committing, then I welcome you losing your treats.
immigrants are being sent to foreign prison
Like they were under Obama and Biden? (With Obama doing so at the fastest pace, to boot.)
Stop enabling fascists
Haha. You are literary in support of Harris and Biden and other fascists like them.
I would prefer you to answer the question instead of acting like you can’t comprehend it. And you are very explicitly a campist for the democratic party because you’re presenting them as being the solution/correct alternative to “people getting hurt” and “fascists being enabled”. I am reminding you that when the democrats are in office NONE of the things you’re upset about pause for a second. They get worse just like they do under republicans. The only difference is the media’s and your attention.
whataboutism
Oh Joe Biden wasn’t sending innocent people to concentration camps? Interesting, crazy how Trump was able to completely invent a whole network of concentration camps across the country that had been there for years in the span of a few months!
Biden deported people at a way higher rate than Trump currently is btw
but at least we wouldn’t be sending innocent people to concentration camps
what do you call all those kids in border camps? are they not innocent, not people, or are we going with “no those are sparkling vacation camps 4 kidz!”
We have been sending innocent people to concentration camps for at least four presidencies now.
