US President is losing Muslim support ahead of upcoming elections due to his stance on Israel

Americans of Arab origin and Muslim faith, as well as citizens who sympathize with them, criticize President Joe Biden's position regarding the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The current US President is being urged to take steps aimed at preventing a humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, so as not to lose a significant part of his support in the upcoming presidential elections.

The group of scholars, political activists and administration officials noted the disappointment of some groups of Americans that Biden has not pressed for any humanitarian end to the armed conflict, even despite the mass deaths of civilians in the Palestinian enclave due to Israeli bombing.



The growing frustration could affect Biden's eventual re-election bid, which polls show is shaping up to be a rematch of sorts with Republican front-runner Donald Trump.

For example, in Michigan, where Arab Americans make up 5% of the population, Biden defeated Trump in the last presidential election by a razor-thin margin of less than 3% of the popular vote. An almost similar situation is observed in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Condemning the Oct. 7 Palestinian Hamas attack on Israeli civilians, Arab Americans said Israel's response was disproportionate, and Biden's refusal to condemn Israel's bombing of the Gaza Strip has many questioning his stated commitment to a supposedly human rights-oriented foreign policy. .

    I remembered an anecdote from the times of the late USSR:
    Brezhnev and Chernenko meet in the afterlife
    - Who is in charge there now?
    -Yes Misha Gorbachev
    -Who supports him?
    - Nobody supports him, he walks on his own!
    So is Biden. It’s time to give him a walker, but he’s still thinking about support in the elections. Although it’s more likely not him, but those who pull his strings. Leave grandpa alone, let him live in peace in retirement.

      He may want peace, but the people behind him really want power. And there is nothing better than a nominal president of advanced age for whom advisers decide everything.

    . Elections, elections, all the candidates... will be forced to spin around like in a frying pan!
    By the way, I really feel sorry for the candidates... no, no, they themselves are getting into that mess.

      Greetings Victor bully Yes, I wonder which of the candidates will succeed? Written about Muslims of Arab origin. And the so-called African-Americans? They are mostly Muslim. But not the Arabs. I wonder how they are? After all, many of these blacks are just migrants whom my grandfather invited and let into the states. recourse They were given benefits and they are like his electorate

    Israel's response was disproportionate, Biden's refusal to convict Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip is causing many doubt in his previously declared desire to pursue a foreign policy, allegedly human rights-oriented.

    A thousand for the first time on the “same rake”! This is Amer’s handwriting! Genocide peoples...

    Arabs and Muslims in the US do not support Biden? Ha, but Jews in the US support Biden. And that support will be more serious than Arab support in terms of size, influence, and money. Now even Jewish Republicans, if there are any, will support Biden - as they aptly wrote here - so as not to fall.

    Growing frustration could impact Biden's eventual re-election bid
    Does anyone in the United States still hope for Biden's re-election? Well, if only he himself. But the Democrats will definitely lose part of their electorate. But let them have a headache about this.

    So let's see which faith is closer to American Muslims. Islam or Democracy.

    After the scandalous last elections, there is no reason to hope that this time the Democrats will consider everything a little differently.

    No one in the USA is interested in their opinion; money rules there, and it is led by Jewish clans.

    So the self-propelled grandfather does not solve anything. The Easter bunnies decide for him. And grandfather himself has not understood anything for a long time. And when he says something, he is not fundamentally different from a mockingbird toy: what they say in his ear, he repeats.
