We speak with Dr. Ahmed Ghanim, a prominent Muslim leader and former Democratic candidate for Congress, after the Kamala Harris campaign apologized for kicking him out of a Detroit election event Monday to which he was invited. Harris’s staunch support for Israel as it continues its brutal war on Gaza has infuriated many Muslim and Arab voters in Michigan, and while Ghanim says it’s a very important issue to him, he was not there to protest. He was also not given a reason for his removal, even after the campaign called him to apologize. “Apology without accountability is not an apology,” he says, adding that the incident has left him questioning whether Democrats still believe in diversity and inclusion or if “Muslims and Arabs don’t have room anymore in this party.”
Nothing I said supports genocide, simply pointing out how your arguments will not stop the genocide.
If you want to be serious about stopping the genocide, there’s really only one answer… armed intervention in Israel, arrest Netanyahu and all of Likud, and put them through a war crimes trubunal. But nobody has the political capital or willpower to pull that off.
