Michigan, And Arab-Muslim Americans In 2024 Presidential Election

admin 5 Comments

The state of Michigan, and particularly the area of Detroit and Dearborn, has a large Arab-Muslim population, and is one of the “swing” states in Presidential elections!

Understandably, they are upset over the Israel-Hamas War in the Gaza Strip, and have indicated their abandonment of Joe Biden and the Democrats in the recent Michigan Presidential Primary.

But the problem is that the election of Donald Trump would not be favorable to the Arab-Muslim population.

So it is a question of accepting reality, and the hope that Arab-Muslims in Michigan and elsewhere will, reluctantly, support Biden as the “lesser of two evils”.

Such is politics, as there is a binary choice, and to vote for a third party or stay home is totally counterproductive!

the 15 electoral votes of Michigan may be the deciding state in the Presidential Election of 2024, so the burden is heavy on the Arab-Muslim population there, and throughout other states and cities that have a notable population that could have an effect on the political future!

The states of New York, New Jersey, Illinois and California have more Muslims than Michigan, but they are all reliably Democratic states, while Michigan is a crucial swing state, so all attention will be paid to that state in November!

Arab And Muslim Anger At Joe Biden Over Israel-Hamas War Endangers Michigan Support In Presidential Election

Michigan is one of the most crucial states in the upcoming Presidential Election of 2024, and with its large Arab and Muslim population, centered in the Detroit area and particularly in the nearby suburb of Dearborn, President Joe Biden faces a massive revolt,

Biden’s support of Israel in the war against Hamas in Gaza has led to massive loss of life, with some Michigan families losing dozens of relatives.

So there is a movement in Michigan to help defeat Biden, although there is no sane reason for Arabs and Muslims to support his likely opponent, former President Donald Trump, who has been hardline in his policies and views on both groups.

So despite understandable anger, Arabs and Muslims are only spiting themselves, but in the process could end up deciding that Donald Trump wins Michigan and its 15 electoral votes, the third most such votes among states seen as in play in the upcoming election, only behind Pennsylvania with 19 electoral votes and Georgia with 16 electoral votes.

The Obscenity Of Cutting Off Water To The Poor In Detroit!

We are living in very difficult times since the Great Recession of 2007-2009, but one of the worst elements is the total lack of concern about basic human decency and life itself, if one does not have the income to pay one’s bills.

So now in Detroit, a depressed city in a state run by Republicans who have taken away home rule from the Motor City, we are seeing many residents, many of them poor and/or unemployed, who are unable to pay a basic water bill, and therefore, are having their water supply totally cut off, as if water is not a basic part of sustenance!

Without water, one cannot wash and bathe.

Without water, one cannot cook meals for basic sustenance.

Without water, babies and children are endangered, even more than adults.

Without water, toilets cannot be flushed of human waste.

Without water, if fire breaks out, one cannot protect himself against the dangers of injury and death.

Without water, a human being is being told his or her life, and that of his or her family, does not matter one iota!

Without water, people will die in a country which has many religious people insist all fetuses should be born, but apparently,once born, to hell with your children and your personal need for water!

What is wrong with America, that most people will hear about this, and dismiss it, as, after all, they have water?

Should the lack of money tell us that therefore one should die? Apparently so, but that is an obscenity that no moral or ethical person could ever accept!
