That is all true but what about Lebanon? If I had to guess then I would assume that most of Michigan's Arab population is Lebanese. They care about Palestine but they care about Lebanon more. Israel has been bombing Christian, as well as Shia, areas in Lebanon recently. |
Yea, Arabs and Muslims who don't vote for Harris are following a "cut of my nose to spite my face" strategy. Do they really think Trump will be good for Arabs and Muslims in the ME? |
Most likely they kicked him out because he is very critical of Democrats and recently retweeted Jill Stein. Which obviously doesn't look great, but I suppose it's better than assuming he is a terrorist or some sh&t like that (as he seems to be implying). |
DCUM, why are you surprised? I grew up walking distance to the library where recent rally was held. I’ve wxplained many times how people outside the bubble look at the world — particularly in Dearborn/Detroit. Keep putting your heads in the sanD as usual. SMH By the way, I support people who are not going to vote for one of the big two if they get no acknowledgement from either party. People are tired of being ignored after providing support. |
I think a lot of people just want to use their vote as a way to get out their anger. Also many of them may not feel very connected to Democrats anyway it's just they don't have a better option and I imagine that's frustrating. |
. Of course that is their choice. But I'm curious what it means to get "acknowledgement" from a political party? I don't agree with everything Democrats do or propose, nor have they reached out to me/my demographic group beyond flyers/ads. I just choose the party/candidate that is best aligned with my values. |
Forgot to add link to AP report https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RXrgUxg2xmk |
The Harris campaign would not even talk to a representative / convention delegate. |
There are Chaldean Arabs in Michigan. |
Who do they want to alienate more? It's a no win situation. |
Sorry, I don't know what or who you are referring to? |
If you are talking about the YouTube video - that is an interview of three people. Doesn't foretell much. |
Not PP but the representative for the Uncommitted delegation at the convention. |
Cubans:Hispanics = Lebanese:Arabs Trump is targeting them hard and he is micro-targeting the Lebanese community He went on Lebanese TV and has said that the Lebanese part of this war needs to end. Harris has been silent as has Biden. https://www.newarab.com/news/trump-promises-t...urn-out-well-lebanon Tiffany's in-laws are Lebanese. Tom Barrack is Lebanese. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/17/us/politic...-arab-americans.html If Harris loses Michigan it is because of Lebanon not Gaza. |
No there is no who will empower the Israelis more vs Biden. |
