The Harris campaign reportedly launches ads targeting Jewish and Arab-American voters with different messages about the ongoing war in the United States Middle East.
A report from CNN on Friday spotlighted Facebook ads from Vice President Kamala Harris that appealed to Jewish voters in Pennsylvania last month.
“And let me be clear: I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself,” Harris says in the Facebook ad, which was adapted from her speech at the DNC convention. “And I will always ensure that Israel has the ability to defend itself, because the people of Israel must never again have to face the horrors that a terrorist organization called Hamas inflicted on October 7, including unspeakable sexual violence and the mass murder of young people at a music festival. “

After an edit, Harris adds, “And know this: I will never hesitate to take whatever action is necessary to defend our armed forces and our interests against Iran and Iranian-backed terrorists.”
But as CNN noted, the ad removed portions of Harris’ speech in which he acknowledged the “heartbreaking” “suffering” that has taken place in Gaza.
Meanwhile, the Harris campaign launched a separate ad, this one aimed at Arab-Americans in Michigan, expressing solidarity with civilians in Gaza.
“What has happened in Gaza over the past nine months has been devastating,” Harris says in the ad. “We cannot afford to become numb to the suffering and I will not remain silent.”
In another speech in the same ad, Harris says, “our common humanity compels us to action.”
The video itself is captioned: “VP Harris worked to end suffering in Gaza.”
The Harris campaign did not immediately respond Fox News digital‘s request for comment.

There has been a lot of attention in Michigan, where Arab-Americans have expressed outrage over the Biden administration’s handling of the Middle East and threatened to withhold their support for the Democratic ticket. Meanwhile, former President Trump is hoping to make inroads with that key voting bloc by recently making a campaign stop in the heavily Muslim-populated city of Dearborn, Michigan.
Both campaigns are also vying to win over the sizable Jewish population in the battleground state of Pennsylvania.
