She re-affirmed every position she had a few years ago. What makes you think her position has changed in any way?

Seems like Harris has been speaking out more often in support of Gaza

Source?

has even refused to meet with Netanyahu.

Source? As her party clarified in the image above, the only reason is because she's in a different city, not because of any refusal.

Here's a couple quick discussions about Harris's current position on Gaza: https://time.com/7001874/kamala-harris-donald-trump-biden-gaza/ https://www.nbcnews.com/investigations/harris-may-willing-criticize-netanyahu-biden-rcna162954

And yep, a little more checking about refusing to meet with Netanyahu does actually come back to what happened this week. I thought I had seen something about a actual refusal earlier this Spring but I can't find it again so that was probably a mis-read on my part.

The NBC one cites a random person from a think-tank, not her own words or actions. The article is forced to concede:

After Israel came under attack by a wave of Iranian drones and missiles in April, for example, Harris spoke of America’s “ironclad” support of Israel’s security. She said in a social media post that “we stand with the people of Israel in defense against these attacks.”
