“After extensive consultation, discussion, and deliberation, the American Muslim 2024 Election Task Force has decided to encourage American Muslims to vote for any presidential candidate of their choosing who supports a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and a US arms embargo on the Israeli government, such as candidates Dr Jill Stein, Dr Cornel West or Chase Oliver,” read the statement, obtained by Middle East Eye.

The statement was written by the American Muslim 2024 Election Task Force, an umbrella group formed this year that consists of a number of prominent Muslim organisations including the political arms of Americans for Justice in Palestine (AJP), Cair, and the US Council of Muslim Organizations.

“We cannot endorse Vice President Kamala Harris’ candidacy because of her refusal to even consider imposing the arms embargo on the Israeli government required by US laws and her failure to promise any other changes whatsoever to President Biden’s failed policy of steadfast financial, diplomatic and military support for Israel’s genocide in Gaza,” the statement read.

      Indeed. Only Democrats would be as hypocritical pretend to be pro-Palestine while actually advocating for the Genocide of Palestinians.

        I think you’re confusing me with Nikki “Finish them” Haley and Donald J “King of Israel” Trump.

      Everyone who disagrees with me that genocide is intolerable is actually a conspirator

          They are equally pathetic statements. You can’t reconcile the idea of someone having a position to your left, so they must secretly be to your right!

              You’ll notice I also said you’re just coping. I agree with Linkerbaan’s actual opinion and you can stick to your conspiracy theories. It’s not like they’re going to dox themselves to prove such a ridiculously frivolous accusation wrong.

                  You have no evidence! The one time you purported to present evidence, it was just someone denying and mocking you evidence-less claims! Your political “advocacy” is a joke if you have no way to interface with contrary opinions except to pigeonhole them into one specific opinion, even if it requires harebrained conspiracy theories!

                  You do more to discredit the democrats than Linkerbaan does. Are you a Republican asset?

          He does recycle actual Russian propaganda though. If you call him out on it, he deletes it and pretends it never happened. I caught him out three times.
