Breaking news in the Times of Israel: Yahya Sinwar, leader of Hamas, is
probably dead.

 The Biden-Harris administration tried to take credit for the Israel Defense
Forces (IDF) killing Hamas terrorist leader Yahya Sinwar this week.
 In a statement published by the administration, President Joe Biden claimed:
"I directed Special Operations personnel and our intelligence professionals
to work side-by-side with their Israeli counterparts to help locate and track
Sinwar and other Hamas leaders hiding in Gaza."
 "With our intelligence help, the IDF relentlessly pursued Hamas's leaders,
flushing them out of their hiding places and forcing them onto the run," he
said.
 The administration trotted out Vice President Kamala Harris to deliver a
statement on Sinwar's death in an apparent attempt to make her look more
presidential following her disastrous interview with Fox News host Bret
Baier.
 Harris' remarks were nearly identical to Biden's, but she did not use his
name or reference "the president."
 "In the past year, American special operations and intelligence personnel
have worked closely with their Israeli counterparts to locate and track
Sinwar and other Hamas leaders, and I commend their work," she said.
She later concluded with: "I will always work to create a future of peace,
dignity, and security for all."
 After her remarks, she bolted out of the room and refused to answer
questions.

questions and immediately darts out of the room following her

 Israel managed to kill Sinwar despite numerous hurdles that the Biden-Harris
administration forced Israel to overcome, including pressuring them to not
enter Rafah, the location where Sinwar was killed; threatening an arms
embargo; slow-walking weapon deliveries to Israel; demanding that Israel
unilaterally agree to a ceasefire; and more.
 

Hey, they had to do everything they could to salvage the Muslim vote which used to be reliably Democratic. (I've seen articles that say the Muslims, at least in the Detroit area, are far from satisfied and have said they will stay home rather than voting for Harris so it doesn't look like the Dems are going to get much for all their efforts to pander to Muslims, aside from turning a lot of former Democrat-supporting Jews into new Republicans.)
