As reports surfaced that members of the Muslim community warned they might abandon voting for President Biden because of his support for Israel while anti-Semitism has skyrocketed around the globe, the Biden administration has launched a new effort to “counter Islamophobia” and now is reportedly warning Israel that support for its war effort will erode.
“Biden, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken – who departed Thursday for Israel with a message on protecting civilian lives – have all explicitly pressed the case in recent private conversations with the Israelis, telling them that eroding support will have dire strategic consequences for Israel Defense Forces operations against Hamas,” CNN reported Friday.
On October 30, Muslim leaders wrote a letter to Biden and the “Democratic Party leadership” titled “2023 Ceasefire Ultimatum,” in which they vowed to withhold Muslim voter support for “any candidate who did not advocate for a ceasefire”:
We pledge to mobilize Muslim, Arab, and allied voters to withhold endorsement, support, or votes for any candidate who did not advocate for a ceasefire and endorse the Israeli offensive against the Palestinian people. We will mobilize increased voter turnout to make our voices heard. The State of Michigan, in the 2020 election, was decided by a mere 2.6 percent margin of victory and holds 16 crucial electoral votes. We emphasize the significance of Michigan, Ohio, Iowa, Florida, Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee, where many of our voters reside.
Two days later, Vice President Kamala Harris announced a National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia, stating, “Taking on hate is a national priority. Today, @POTUS and I are announcing the country’s first National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia. This action is the latest step forward in our work to combat a surge of hate in America.”
The Biden administration, reversing the policies of the Trump administration, has cozied up to Iran, which is intimately involved with Israel’s mortal enemies such as Hamas and Hezbollah, since Biden took office. Robert Malley, who used to be Biden’s special envoy to Iran, was put under criminal investigation by the FBI over his handling of classified documents and was accused of being linked to an “Iranian spy ring” operating to shift U.S. policy to favor the Islamic Republic of Iran.
“The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the Biden Administration’s efforts to conceal details about its ongoing secret nuclear negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran from Congress, ignoring statutory obligations for congressional oversight,” House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-WI) wrote. “The Administration’s lack of transparency is even more troubling in light of press reports about Iran’s direct role in this weekend’s horrific attack on Israel by Hamas and additional revelations that former Special Envoy for Iran (SEI), Robert Malley, and members of his negotiating team may have had compromising ties to the Iranian regime.”
After the massacre of Israelis by Hamas on October 7, Biden administration officials tried to defend their unfreezing of $6 billion dollars’ worth of frozen Iranian assets, saying that Iran would only use the funds for humanitarian purposes. But critics asserted that the money was fungible, allowing Iran to funnel freed-up money to terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah.
Democrats get a lot more money from Jews than they do from moslems. This is going to be a tricky proposition for them.
The problem is not really Biden. He can be expected to be a weasel.
The problem is that many pro-Israel folks (American Jews and others) will continue to vote Democrat no matter what Biden does.
We see the same thing with blacks. Democrat policies keep them poor and dependent. No matter. They will continue to vote Democrat.
Religion of Peace supports terrorism, rape and murder against infidel women and children and Biden caves. Nice look.
Pedo Joe is panicked about his Muzzie Terrorist voter base.
We had Obama for 8 years........................
I wonder if Pedo Joe has submitted an application to join the Hammies yet.
In the US there’s a generational gap when it comes to support for Israel. Those under 40 either hate or are indifferent towards Israel. When the boomers die out Israel may be forced to look for a patron elsewhere.
Gonna be awesome(I think). Probably not.
Not really, what alternative to they have to vote for? Trump or RFK.
RFK Jr is also antisemite. The only choice is TRUMP.
Hurray, we now have an islamist political bloc in the USA.
We are so screwed.
maybe biden should go back into the basement and stay there. Less damage to everyone.
They get Jewish money, but they need black and Muslim activists to do the footwork for the vote fraud.
My support doesn’t erode...
EVER....
WHY ARE THEY ALLOWED TO VOTE AT ALL?????
A strong American leader would be answering the Muslim “leaders” with: Where were you when Hamas was throwing missiles at 5,000 a day into Israel, while they kidnapped, and murdered hundreds of Israeli civilians including children, women and the elderly????
