We would have thought they'd have sent out President Joe Biden to make a statement (maybe they will) on the apparent killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. Instead, we got a statement from Vice President Kamala Harris. On the one hand, it's good that Harris is willing to risk losing the votes of the pro-Hamas faction of the Democrat Party (who protested her visit to a university Thursday, accusing her of genocide).
On the other hand, Harris was the one insistent on the IDF not going into Rafah, which is where they found Sinwar hiding. She'd studied the maps, y'all.
We guess they thought this was a chance for her to look presidential, or maybe Biden was just taking a nap.
VP Kamala Harris statement on the elimination of Hamas leader Yayha Sinwar:

“Justice has been served…To any terrorist who kills Americans, threatens the American people...know this; we will always bring you to justice.”

She warned IDF not to go into Rafah. Where Sinwar was hiding.

If they'd listened to her, he'd still be alive.
Yep.
Why is she making this statement and not the President?

Who is running the country?
Where is our president?

Why is she speaking? She isn't the president.

Where is the president???

Why is she addressing anything. She can’t even do an interview. Where is the president?

As we surmised above, the Democrat elite who pushed Biden out probably thought this was a good opportunity for her to look presidential.
Didn’t anyone tell Kamala that the US had nothing to do with bringing down Sinwar? Her statement just goes to show how she misleads the public

It was the IDF, last time I checked.

It had very little to do with you. If they’d have listened to you… he would still be alive

"We"?

She was the one telling Israel to not enter Rafah.
There's no "we", lady. This glory goes to IDF and IDF only.
We?

Trying to take credit for it right before the election.

This is like Biden claiming credit for the death of Bin Laden after opposing the action. Give me a break!

Despite their best efforts to stop it.

So she’s taking credit for the operation?

Dude. This is like a running back scoring a touchdown and the punter running on the field to spike the ball.

It really is.
Update:
Here's a real statement:
IDF Spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagar statement on the elimination of Sinwar:
— Oli London (@OliLondonTV) October 17, 2024
“Since the beginning of this war that Sinwar started on October 7 — we’ve said: Our war is with Hamas, not the people of Gaza. We mean it.”
