American Muslim leaders: Harris should abandon Biden’s policies in support of Israel
The American Network reported that a group of American Arab Muslim leaders asked the presideial candidate of the Democratic Party to “distance” himself from Joe Biden’s policies in support of the Zionist regime and to exert pressure to end the Gaza war.
According to Isna, CNN reported that several leaders of the American Arab Muslim community met Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s presideial candidate, on the sidelines of an election rally in Fli, Michigan. Right now, the vice preside of the United States has asked Joe Biden to abandon his policies towards the Zionist regime and put extra pressure to end the war of this regime against the Gaza Strip.
“Wael Al-Ziyat”, the executive director of the group called Emgage Action, which works to support the rights of American Muslims, said that the conversation was supposed to last 10 minutes, but in the end it lasted 20 minutes, and Harris did not make any promises and only said that he waed to end it. He is fighting for this and will do everything he can in this direction.
Al-Ziyat told CNN: “Harris promised to cooperate with our community and said that he fully understands our words and hopes that if he wins, he will be able to impleme all these words.”
This leader of the American Muslim community said that Harris’ campaign had coacted him and other American Arab leaders who were prese in the room 48 hours before the meeting to invite them to the meeting.
Al-Ziyat stated: “Their message to Harris is simple. “He should show the distance between himself and the policies of the curre governme regarding this issue that we are against.”
The rece positions of Kamala Harris regarding the rece attacks of the criminal Zionist regime on Lebanon, which has coinued to support this regime, have led to the dissatisfaction and turning away of the American Muslim voting community from her and the Democrats.
The state of Michigan is one of the key states for the 2024 US presideial election and hosts a large community of Muslims and Arabs. The Emgage Action group is one of the groups represeing American Muslim voters, which last moh announced its support for Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, but at the same time emphasized that it is extremely dissatisfied with the position of the Biden administration towards Gaza and its support for Israel.
Harris’s campaign manager Julie Chavez-Rodriguez and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer attended the meeting of Arab American Muslim leaders with Harris.
Al-Ziyat said: “We told Harris that we wa the American preside to end the war. We wa him to commit to ending the war if he becomes preside. We wa him to speak directly to our communities about their suffering and pain.”
According to CNN, an official of Harris’ campaign said: “In the meeting, he talked about his efforts to end the war in Gaza, the security of Israel, the release of hostages (Zionist prisoners under the corol of Hamas), ending the suffering in Gaza and realizing The Palestinian people have the right to dignity, freedom and self-determination.
This official stated: “The Vice Preside of the United States expressed concern about the casualties and displaceme of civilians in Lebanon and emphasized the governme’s position that a diplomatic solution is ultimately the best way to achieve stability and protect civilians.” The vice preside discussed efforts to preve regional war.
This meeting was held while last week dozens of senior leaders and promine figures of the American Muslim community se a letter to American Muslim voters asking them not to vote for the Democratic Party presideial candidate in the November presideial election due to the Biden administration’s support for the Zionist regime. .
This letter, which was signed by dozens of leaders and religious scholars of the American Muslim community, comes after polls show that American Muslim voters are more likely to support the Democratic Party candidate due to the support provided by the administration of Preside Joe Biden and His deputy “Kamala Harris” has turned away from the Zionist regime during the nearly one-year war of this regime against the Gaza Strip. An eve that shows the expansion of protests and condemnations against the crimes of the Zionist regime and Washington’s support for these crimes in the American society.
In the request letter signed by American Muslim leaders, it is written: “We may not know what will happen in the future, but we know that we will not allow by voting and supporting a governme that is involved in the bloodshed of so many brothers. And our sisters played a role, let’s get our hands dirty.”
