Muslim and Arab Americans say their support was critical to Biden’s winning Michigan in 2020. Some warn they won’t back him again over his blanket support for Israel.
Ok, but then don‘t cry when Trump gets reelected
Wonder what they think Trump would have done differently.
Seriously. Trump is advocating turning Gaza into a parking lot.
And it’s not like Democrats have exactly been shy of their general support of Israel, if you’ve paid any attention at all. They just also happen to acknowledge that Palestinians are people, unlike most Republicans.
Are you serious? You Americans have a brain worm
The next election will likely be a choice between Biden and Trump. So you can either vote for Biden or decide that you don’t mind Trump wins.
And as a reminder Trump recognized Jerusalem as the Israeli capital, recognized the Golan heights as being part of Israel, had an Iranian general assassinated, and announced a peace plan which suggested the Israelis should be allowed to annex another 30% of the West Bank. In recent weeks, he’s been banging on about there being no better US ally than Israel and how if he’s elected Israel will be safer than ever.
You can be critical of Biden, but the republicans are religiously pro-Israel. They don’t give a shit about Palestinians. Biden is the better option.
It’s like all the idiots who make excuses for Hamas, because they’re unaware that for a long time Hamas was supported by Israel, and that by supporting terrorists they’re effectively undermining any chance of a Palestinian state.
Us Americans recall the Muslim ban, and the increase in hate crimes after 45 took office. There are no good answers and the protest vote only gets you the worst candidate elected. Do you prefer passive or active genocide?
So instead of diminished aid for Palestine, you’d rather… checks notes… travel bans for all middle eastern people trying to go to the US, except for people from a handful of governments who are actively giving Trump money?
Don’t forget Trump’s son-in-law’s middle east foreign policy plan for Israel that Palestinian supporting groups rejected and weren’t consulted with further. Israel was to be allowed to annex existing settled positions, and no further expansion from either side. Israeli settlers haven’t adhered to this “peace plan” anyway.
Any Americans staying home at elections, this type of foreign policy is what they tacitly support.
Tbh, Israeli West Bank “settlers” really shouldn’t be considered non-combatants.
Sure don’t vote Biden. Just vote for the fascist Republicans that previously banned people from muslim countries. That will work, right gaiz? Plus any Republican president won’t ever send Gaza aid. Biden is sending aid.

Name a democratic Muslim country with free elections.
E: the fact I only got one response should be proof enough. when you have societies that tend to gravitate towards dictators, strong men, or are hostage to royal families, that’s what you’re gonna get.
Indonesia.
A man giving up his life for the USA is not enough to stop Trump from berating that soldier’s surviving family publicly.

If Arab and Muslim want to choose that over Biden because of Palestine well then I’ll not contribute ever again to a rebuilding of the mosque in my community.
Consider my face eaten, leopards.
How many times have you contributed to a rebuilding of the mosque in your community?
Twice. Once in the town I live near here in the PNW another the town another family member lives in the Midwest.
I give money to temples when I see antisemitic stuff in the news. And when African American churches are targeted I donate to them, too.
I am a pagan, and I sacrifice to my gods all the time food, spice, and liquor. I throw them coins, but the gods never take those so I usually pick up the coins and go inside.
