“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.

    You would never mislead people into thinking you were pro Palestine whilst actually being pro trump, would you now Linkerbaan?

      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

      Come on, say Russian bot, I’m almost there!

          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!

            I’m afraid you’re factually incorrect. In another thread I said to linkerbaan that they were a trump supporter pretending to be pro-Palestine just to try to persuade democrats not to vote for the least genocidal option they can possibly get for president of the USA. Linkerbaan responded simply with one word:

            Cope.

            You don’t accept that rightwingers might be pretending to be leftwingers just to bring about a more rightwing future and might be lying to you about their support for Gaza? That’s a little naive, I think. Have you looked into project 2025 at all?

              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.

                I agree with Linkerbaan’s actual opinion

                Oh, you support trump at the expense of Gaza too. Got it. I wasted my time with you.

                Republicans: see evidence that the world isn’t as they claim. Deny it and carry on.

                  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.
