TL;DR Summary

The White House cancelled a Ramadan iftar meal after Muslim Americans declined the invitation in protest of President Biden's support for Israel's war on Gaza. Muslim community members warned against attending, leading to the cancellation. The Biden administration has struggled to address growing anger in US Arab and Muslim communities over its unconditional support for Israel, with critics warning of potential electoral consequences. The administration has held off-the-record meetings with select Arab and Muslim representatives, but activists argue that these discussions have not led to any policy changes. Despite occasional expressions of concern, the administration has maintained its commitment to the alliance with Israel and has ruled out conditioning or stopping the flow of weapons to the country.
