Arabs And Muslims Are Seeking To Flip The State Of Michigan AGAINST Biden
Arab-Americans and Muslim voters in Michigan are actively working against Joe Biden and hoping they can flip Michigan.
These Arab and Muslim members are upset at Biden’s response to the Israel-Hamas war that has seen Palestinians caught in the crossfire.
Joe Biden has continued to support Israel and their right to defend against the Hamas terrorists.
However, this response is not good enough for Muslims, who are a large part of the Democratic party.
Dems are digging their hole even deeper. Prepare to get washed in Michigan
Years later they’ll come crawling back begging for the Arab/Muslim vote https://t.co/OB6xuG0puR

The folks at Fox News share more on the story:
Arabs and Muslims in Michigan are working to beat President Biden in one of the most important swing states in the country, per a new report.
Michigan State Rep. Alabas Farhat is one of many Arab-American elected officials who refused a meeting with Biden campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez in January, according to a new Washington Post article.
“If the president wants to start that process, it’s only feasible through a cease-fire [in Gaza],” Farhat said. “That’s the only way you can even restart the conversation.”
Imam Omar Sulemain said during a sermon that Biden wants the vote of the Arab community in Michigan but suggested that Biden is not owed their support.
“And then your president wants to come to your community and make sure that you’re still going to vote with him and vote for him in November,” Suleiman said to congregants. “I hope you’ve sent him the right message.”
“After the sermon and prayer, Abandon Biden co-chairs Khalid Turaani and Samraa Luqman made an announcement about the effort, urging congregants to show up and vote in a way that ensures Biden does not retain the presidency,” The Post reported. “Turaani told those gathered they had no right to complain if they did not make their voices heard.”
Joe Biden sent a representative to meet with Muslim leaders in Michigan.
However, the meeting never happened, as the Muslim community wouldn’t meet until a cease-fire was called.
Note that Biden wasn’t going to attend this critical meeting with Arab & Muslim leaders in Michigan. They were sending a campaign rep for a “listening session” to hear grievances they’re well aware of already. https://t.co/JFSrhRZSHz

The Washington Post shares more on the story:
The campaign’s organizers, who also oppose Donald Trump, have not yet coalesced around a strategy for the general election. They are still debating whether to encourage voters to support a third-party candidate or to skip the presidential contest altogether while still voting for other offices. Either way, the organizers are telling Muslim and Arab voters that they should show up and vote, rather than stay home, so it is clear that Biden specifically has lost their vote.
A visit to this community makes it clear that even many voters who have not heard of the formal Abandon Biden campaign plan to deny Biden their vote. They are furious that a president they saw as an ally has unwaveringly backed Israel in a military campaign that has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and, in their view, shown scant empathy for the dead, wounded and displaced.
Biden’s handling of the war in Gaza has consumed Dearborn since Oct. 7, when Hamas militants rampaged through Israel’s border fence with Gaza, killing about 1,200 Israelis and taking 253 hostages, according to the latest count from the Israeli government. Israel launched a punishing retaliatory military campaign that has killed more than 26,000 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, and relied on tactics widely condemned by human rights groups — including cutting off access to food, water, electricity and other basic necessities, which has put the tiny enclave’s more than 2 million residents at risk of starvation and disease.
Whether Muslim members vote for President Trump or a third party, it would still be a massive victory for President Trump.
Democrats are stuck between a rock and a hard place, from supporting Israel to supporting their Muslim constituents.
