Dearborn's Lebanese-American mayor warns Biden has not 'earned my vote' |
2024-06-24 |
[An Nahar] Abdullah Hammoud's election as the first Moslem mayor of Dearborn was a watershed moment for this city, an automaking hub home to the highest concentration of Arab-Americans in the United States. But while his early focus was on upgrading sewer infrastructure and investing in parks, he has now been thrust into the national spotlight for his outspoken criticism of fellow Democrat Joe The Big GuyBiden ![]() brilliant... or is that an act?... , over the president's support for Israel's military offensive in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... . "I'll be the first to say that we don't want to see (Donald) Trump reelected to the White House," Hammoud told AFP in an interview. "But people want to be inspired to come out." Dearborn, a suburb of bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit ... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang... famous as the birthplace of Henry Ford and home of the Ford Motor Company's headquarters, has a population of around 110,000 residents, of whom 55 percent claim Middle Eastern or North African heritage. In 2020, Dearborn voters overwhelmingly supported Biden and their ballots could tip the scales in Michigan -- a crucial swing state that may ultimately decide the White House winner in November's election. Hammoud's profile surged in January after he declined an invitation to meet with Biden campaign officials seeking to shore up the Moslem vote. Since then, he helped galvanize a movement that saw over 100,000 voters mark "uncommitted" in Michigan's Democratic primary in protest against Biden's policy on Israel, and was asked by Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein if he would be her running mate.
