Muslim Leader Says Biden Will Lose, 'Allah Willing'

As President Joe Biden grapples with how to keep anti-Israel voters in the Democrats' fold, the head of one of the largest anti-Israel groups in America took to a Detroit mosque to lambast the president, hoping that Muslim voters will tank Biden in November and in so doing, give the White House back to Donald Trump.

Nihad Awad, the executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), spoke at Masjid Muath in Detroit on February 27th, the day of Michigan’s primary, and his speech was wild, to say the least. In it, he attacked Biden’s mental and physical acuity and vowed that most Muslim voters will abandon Biden this November.

“Our message [to President Biden] is as follows: ‘Allah willing, our votes will make you lose the presidency,’” Awad said in an Arabic speech which was translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI). “It is [also] a message to [the Democrat] Party: ‘You went too far, you listened to him, and did not draw the line, so you will lose the presidency.’”

I’m honestly appalled by the ridiculously stupid moves of movements like CAIR right now. Do they seriously think trump would be any better at dealing with Israel? He’s not gonna push back against the ethnic state, he’s going to make it far stronger. The only one who’s even remotely likely to try and tell Israel to calm down is Joe Biden, no matter how much I despise him, he’s the only other option. Trump is a HORRIBLE plan to vote for as a pro-Palestinian, remember that my fellow citizens.

He celebrated Hamas' attack on October 7th. He supports Hamas. CAIR and Hamas were both created by the Muslim Brotherhood. CAIR is a joke and should be considered a domestic terrorist organization.

Trump already banned Muslims from entering the US and has said he’d “finish the job” in regards to the Israel/Hamas conflict.

Awad should know that Biden is clearly the best advocate for Muslims in 2024 and beyond.
