IMHO, she’s already pretty clearly signaled that she thinks Bibi is a POS that has killed a lot of innocent civilians.
But she knows the GOP wants to run on false claims that the democrats want to support Hamas’ desire to wipe Israel off the map. She wanted to kneecap that argument with a statement about supporting defense.
Her position is that she wants a two state solution, condemns the brutal offense that is killing civilians, but supports defense.

👍
Did you not read her statement yesterday regarding protests in Union Station? She is 100% committed to continuing Bidens approach to Gaza and Zionists.
Here is her press briefing from yesterday. She very clearly said that she supports Israel’s ability to defend itself, but HOW it defends itself matters. Then she proceeded to stay that Bibi was killing and starving civilians.

Killing and starving them with our money and our weapons. But then crying about the humanity behind it all. Sorry I don't believe it.
Has she even said that her administration would fund Bibi’s campaign in Gaza? From what I can tell, she hasn’t. And so far she’s running to the left of Biden’s policy and has been much more outspoken about civilian deaths.
She’s part of Biden’s administration, but that doesn’t mean her administration will be Biden’s administration.
The language in her statement yesterday suggests she may be worse. Condemning flag burning, which is protected speech. Condemning protest, which is protected speech. Equating opposition to Zionism as antisemitism, which is bold face lie and gaslighting. Made the claim that supporters of Palestinian rights were protecting Hamas, also a bold faced lie and gaslighting. Netanyahu told our government to jump and everyone of them asked how high.
Then finished it off with 'hate and violence of any kind have no place in our nation.' Which is rich coming from a country that knows nothing BUT hate and violence.
