Dan GillmorMichigan's Muslim voters were (rightly) pissed at Biden administration's Gaza policy, so many voted for Trump, whose anti-Islam bigotry was well known, and helped give him the state's electoral votes. And now they're shocked, shocked to discover how self-defeating that was. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/21/michigan-arab-communities-ice-fear
hiphopheaven@dangillmor Harris lost because of the economy not anti occupation people. Yiu are blaming everybody except yourselves

Yes. It was not Gaza. It was never about Gaza. It is funny how people keep harping about genocide in Gaza but are silent on what #Hamas did in al-Aqsa Flood Operation. #Hamas ran a mafia organization inside Gaza preventing real democracy and freedom of expression.
Not ignoring the role that Israel played in building up #Hamas as an opponent to Fatah. Whatever bad #Israel is doing in #Gaza, #Hamas has done worse.
@welkin7 @dangillmor it's frustrating that you ignore 78 goddamn year of israel oppresing palestinians. You can deflect all you want with Hamas. Fact is israel is doing settler colonialism and genocide two crimes that not a single excuse justify it. Hundred of palestinians are killed yearly by idf and the settler terrorists and Israel did every goddamn attrocity Hamas did in larger scale for longer time. So shut the f up you piece of trash
@hiphopheaven @dangillmor
A land without people for people without land was and still remains fundamentally flawed. And possibly fatally. So is the project of greater #Israel. The instances of Israeli settler violence against Occupied West Bank and Occupied Gaza are appalling.
This does not justify #Oct7. #Hamas and its ilks carried out a medieval barbaric, inhuman murder of people. #Hamas has to be held accountable for its role in causing the suffering of Gaza.
@welkin7 @dangillmor and nothing justify settler colonialism and genocide . Do your best to push your politicians to stop supporting israel, promote bds, post about all crimes israel is doing, expose how zionism is a supermasist ideology that resulted this whole tragedy. Ask for end of occupation with a reconciliation process that include holding both side accountsble for war crimes instead of repeating the what about khamas pro israel pro settler colonialsm, pro genocide talking points
