Are American Muslim leaders trying to save Hamas from extinction?
Muslim leaders announced on Saturday that they are going national with an effort to dissuade voters from reelecting President Joe Biden in 2024 due to his failure to call for a cease-fire in Gaza.
The #AbandonBiden campaign officially began earlier in December, led by Muslim leaders in swing states like Michigan, Minnesota and Arizona, who disapproved of Biden’s support for Israel’s counterattacks against Hamas. The counterattacks have come at the cost of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinian lives.
Now, the coalition intends to expand the pressure campaign to all 50 states.
“We will save America from itself, by punishing Biden at the ballot box,” said lead organizer Jaylani Hussein in a statement.
The Biden campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The coalition plans to endorse an independent presidential candidate, Hussein told CNBC. He added that the campaign does not support former President Donald Trump, the current Republican frontrunner, though it is aware of the risks of depleting Biden’s voter base.
“There is a likelihood that our votes may weaken the Democrats that the Republicans may win,” Hussein said. “We’re not fools about that.”
The #AbandonBiden campaign is willing to take that risk, he said: “We will risk an unknown four years of Trump.”

Supporting Israel in its war against the mass murdering sexual perverts of Hamas is one of the few things Biden has gotten right. Also, there was polling coming out of Gaza that 80 % of those in Gaza supported Hamas. If Hamas wants a ceasefire it is only because it is now losing the war. The group could end the war by surrendering. That would be much more acceptable than a ceasefire.
