Kamala Harris has earned an eleventh-hour show of support from Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim community leaders.

More than 100 Arizona Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and progressive Democrats and community leaders have signed a letter making the case for those reluctant to support Kamala Harris against Donald Trump.

“We know that many in our communities are resistant to vote for Kamala Harris because of the Biden administration’s complicity in the genocide,” the letter, published Thursday night, reads.

“Some of us have lost many family members in Gaza and Lebanon. We respect those who feel they simply can’t vote for a member of the administration that sent the bombs that may have killed their loved ones,” the letter continued. “As we consider the full situation carefully, however, we conclude that voting for Kamala Harris is the best option for the Palestinian cause and all of our communities.”

    So, you admit that not voting for Dems you vote Trump, but you just think that it’s no big deal, because last time he failed to break everything he touched?

    Edit: it’s a pity there’s no travelling to alternative timelines, I’d really love to see what Trump’s victory would lead to, but wouldn’t want to live in that reality.

      Since I wouldn’t vote for Trump, this is obviously not true. But by your logic, since I’m also not voting for GOPers that means I voted for Harris so don’t worry.

      but you just think that it’s no big deal, because last time he failed to break everything he touched?

      I see no reason to think Trump was more harmful than Biden-Harris. But at the moment, I’m focused on the normalization of genocide by Democratic voters.

      Edit: it’s a pity there’s no travelling to alternative timelines, I’d really love to see what Trump’s victory would lead to, but wouldn’t want to live in that reality.

      Trump is ahead in many polls. He could win. If he does, how will you feel about selling out Palestinians?
