Muslim Democrats give Biden ultimatum: Israel ceasefire by 5 or battleground states turn 'red'
Just the News ^ | 10/31/23 | Madeleine Hubbard

Posted on 10/31/2023 1:41:59 PM PDT by CFW

The National Muslim Democratic Council, a nationwide group of Democratic leaders and activists, threatened President Joe Biden that if he does not force Israel to reach a ceasefire with Hamas, a U.S. State Department-designated foreign terrorist organization, by 5 p.m. ET on Tuesday, they will work to mobilize against him in the 2024 presidential election.

"It has become evident that our voices are being ignored, but our votes will not be. Simply put, as Gaza turns red, so could crucial battleground states," the council said in a letter Monday to the White House and Democratic Party.

"Your administration's unconditional support, encompassing funding and armaments, has played a significant role in perpetuating the violence that is causing civilian casualties and has eroded trust in voters who previously put their faith in you," the group also wrote.

"We will mobilize increased voter turnout to make our voices heard," the council also wrote. It added that Michigan, a swing state with a large Muslim population that went for former President Donald Trump in 2016, went for Biden by 2.6% in 2020.

The linked document states that the Liberty was not identified by the Israeli as a US ship.
Is this the only case of friendly fire due to a mistake in your knowledge? I think not since it is a frequent enough occurrence.

Do you remember the movie Bullworth, I think it was called? The punchline was "So what are you going to do? Vote Republican?"

Israeli pilots at that time were the Top Guns in the Med, where they operated.

They knew that the Liberty was not an offensive ship.

A newbie pilot would have known that the Liberty was a SMT with no firepower, flying the American Flag.

Not too much there nationwide but Detroit always had Arabs in it like the famous disc jockey the late Casey Casem (Kemal Ali Kasem) worked there around 1960.

More came in as the decades advanced.

The Somali immigration into Minneapolis and vicinity a reality.

I visited the Mall of America in Bloomington in 2019 yes there were Somali women working as janitors.

Visited a restaurant one morning in a Minneapolis suburb experienced friction between local folks and Somali newcomers.

Biden is leaking out as much as possible to make it look like.

1. Joe Biden supports Israel

2. Joe Biden wants Israel to avoid civilian casualties.

Joe Biden wants both sides to like him he ain’t fooling me.

I had to make an emergency visit to the Minneapolis hospital about ten years ago and had a Somali nurse. She was the sweetest, kindest, friendliest and most competent nurse I’ve had.

I honestly am not angered by folks who are Muslim speak Arabic in my workplace.

I hope they are not angry with Jews, myself or anyone else.

...the attack on the Liberty was destined to become a recurring source of tension between Israel and the United States. Although Israel apologized for the attack and paid compensation to its victims, many American officials rejected Israel’s claim that the Liberty incident had been an honest mistake. Rather, they blamed Israel for what was at best inexcusable negligence, or at worst the premeditated murder of American servicemen. Such charges persisted in the face of successive inquiries by a broad range of American agencies and Congressional committees, as well as a full Israeli court of inquiry, all of which found no proof whatsoever that Israel knowingly attacked an American ship. On the contrary, the evidence produced by these investigations lent further support to Israel’s claim that its decision to attack was, given the circumstances, a reasonable error....
