Vice President Kamala Harris condemned Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel and expressed concern for Palestinian suffering, while former President Donald Trump criticized the Biden-Harris administration's response.

Both Harris and Trump have expressed support for Israel, but Harris has been more vocal about the need for a cease-fire and the suffering of Palestinian civilians.

Harris supports a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine, while Trump's 2020 plan limited Palestinian sovereignty and allowed Israeli control over certain areas.

Trump has criticized Harris' calls for a cease-fire, arguing it would allow Hamas to regroup, while Harris has emphasized the importance of a hostage deal.

Experts suggest Harris might pressure Israeli leaders more than Biden, but her policy positions are expected to remain similar unless there is an opportunity for significant change.
