Biden's Israel-Gaza response raises doubts among Muslim Americans

Muslim and Arab American voters in Michigan, who played a crucial role in helping President Joe Biden win the state in 2020, are now questioning their support for him due to his administration's unwavering support for Israel during the recent Israel-Gaza conflict. Many feel hurt and betrayed by Biden's stance and are considering not voting for him in the future. Michigan has a significant Muslim American population, and their rejection of Biden could cost him both the state and reelection. The Biden administration's response to the conflict has been criticized for lacking empathy towards Palestinian suffering. Muslim and Arab Americans point to rising Islamophobia and a lack of red lines for Israel as reasons for their disillusionment.
