**Women's Muslim Group Folds After DNC Denies Speaker
By James Morley III | Thursday, 22 August 2024 10:58 AM
The group Muslim Women for Harris-Walz disbanded after
the refusal by the Democratic National Committee to allow a
Palestinian-American to speak this week, the group announced
Wednesday on social media.
Earlier in the week, a group of uncommitted delegates
asked the campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris to give
Abbas Alawieh, a delegate from Michigan, a speaking slot at
the main stage of the convention. Alawieh, a Palestinian-
American, was denied, leading to protests outside the United
Center in Chicago.
"We cannot in good conscience continue Muslim Women for
Harris-Walz, in light of this new information from the Un-
committed movement, that VP Harris' team declined their re-
quest to have a Palestinian American speaker take the stage
at the DNC," the group said in a statement posted on Instagram.
The group noted that the family of Israeli hostage Hersh
Goldberg-Polin showed "more empathy towards Palestinian Amer-
icans" than Harris or Tim Walz. On Wednesday night, Jon Polin
and Rachel Goldberg-Polin spoke before the crowd and pleaded
for a cease-fire deal to be reached so that the remaining
hostages may return home.
Tension has developed within the Democratic Party as
leaders struggle to find a coherent message that offers sup-
port for Israel and its war against Hamas while offering
empathy for American Muslims who traditionally vote Democrat.
In February, Arab and Muslim organizers staged a protest
vote in the critical battleground state of Michigan in which
over 100,000 Democrat primary voters chose "uncommitted" over
President Joe Biden.
Since Hamas invaded northern Israel on Oct. 7 and killed
1,200 people, the conflict has killed more than 40,000 people
and displaced millions, according to Gaza's Health Ministry.
"We pray that the DNC and VP Harris' team makes the right
decision before this convention is over. For the sake of each
of us," the group's statement concluded.**
It is typical of the DNC. They think they don't need
anyone and they don't seem to be bound by the Constitution.
The number of corrupt Democrats is more than even those
they are aware of.
They have corrupted the majority of Congress, the DOJ,
the judicial system and then expect patriotic Americans to pay
ANY attention, at all, to anything they say.
They have destroyed the economy, the education system,
inflation, COLA, the Strategic Petroleum Reserves, nearly all
international trade, and have proven that they do not care
about the American people or the American Dream.
They check blocks when filling slots rather select those
who are capable and have a clue about the job they are filling
but if their race, color, gender, and sexual preference, etc.
is perverted, they get the job. That is not what the founding
fathers had in mind but the racist, Marxists, Socialists, and
Communists or any combination of them.
I still pray that God will touch some of their hearts at
least enough to open their blind eyes.
Conservatively,
John
