Dearborn will arrest Netanyahu & Gallant if they step within Dearborn city limits. Others cities should declare the same. Our president may not take action, but city leaders can ensure Netanyahu & other war criminals are not welcome to travel freely across these United States.

Really dystopian to know that wishing for the end of a people will garner you praise while wishing for the freedom of a people will get you censured.

Our city’s Congresswoman - @RepRashida - was censured while 10,000+ innocent Palestinians have been brutally murdered. The Islamophobia and anti-Arab bigotry our community faces is unprecedented.

It is easy to forget that votes are not just numbers, but people. Every person who voted ‘Uncommitted’ today was personally compelled to use their voice to speak out against President Biden’s support of Benjamin Netanyahu’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

I was so excited to barnstorm for @BernieSanders that I showed up to the @ArabAmericanMus at 1:30pm as I was told. However, the event is on February 8th. So, following this one person rally, I'll be jumping on the phones to call in support of our candidate.

How many inquiries have been submitted to the government of Israel with a non response? . The Biden administration doesn’t seem to “inquire” with any other entity about the facts prior to speaking up.

Muslims Americans and anyone thought to be Muslim were quickly viewed as the "enemies". Hate crimes skyrocketed. We were asked to condemn everything and then told "you're not condemning it loud enough.". No "leader" spoke up bc it wasn't politically expedient to do so.

Not @TheOnion. Despite the world’s NGOs and rights organizations sounding the alarm on all the war crimes being committed by the Israeli government, the White House found Bibi and his genocidal army in “compliance” to keep the weapons flowing. What an absolute sham.

Age 21, hanging with a group of "friends", I spoke to how difficult travel is for Muslims with the extra scrutiny at the airport. A white woman responded by saying "you being pulled out of line and scrutinized is for all our safety and I support it.".

This sentiment was among all - Democrats, Republicans and everything in between. Canvassing in 2016, a neighbor just a block away, a 90+ dem score, told me he's "disgusted" that I lived near him. And another told me "f***k off my front porch, I don't vote Islamic.".
