Islamists Who Left Democrat Party Over Gaza Loving Abdul El-Sayed

It’s not like a ton of Democrats weren’t already doing some hating on Israel and Jews since Hamas started the war, but, Democrats weren’t sufficiently hating on Israel and Jews

‘I hate Democrats, but I love Abdul’: voters who left over Gaza return for progressive push

Two years ago, Zainab Bibi Ahmed thought she had turned her back on the Democrats for good. Now, she is volunteering for the party’s US Senate nominee in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed.

Ahmed was one of 100,000 people to vote uncommitted in the February 2024 Democratic Michigan primary, in a bid to send a message to then US president Joe Biden about his support for Israel, as people watched what Amnesty International later called a “live-streamed genocide” in Gaza on their screens.

That November, Ahmed – a resident of Troy, Michigan, and an academic staffer at Wayne State University – opted to vote for the Green party’s Jill Stein amid calls to punish Democrats over the administration’s support for Israel.

“I did not think I would come back to the Democratic party after 2024. I really didn’t. But then when I saw [New York City mayor] Zohran Mamdani and Abdul El-Sayed, of course, and Shereef Akeel and Amir Makled,” Ahmed said, referencing two university regent candidates in the state, “I was like, OK, I cannot not support these gentlemen just because they’re Democrats.”

So, now that you have El-Sayed, and a bunch of other Islamic extremists/Israel haters/Jew haters, running for office as Democrats the imported Islamists are super happy and will vote for them.

Like Ahmed, Waqas Sarwar, a Dearborn resident, voted for Stein in 2024, but he was excited to cast his primary ballot for Democrats El-Sayed and Representative Rashida Tlaib this month.

“I hate Democrats, but I love Abdul,” Sarwar said.

Sarwar believes that the party needs to bring “fresh blood” like El-Sayed and that it should pivot on Israel and Aipac to align with young voters.

Fresh blood for the extremists

Michigan AG says she fears candidate El-Sayed is rationalizing terrorism, Jewish voters are torn

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, a Jewish Democrat, says in an interview that she fears the state’s Senate candidate, Abdul El-Sayed, is rationalizing terrorism and that the party is ostracizing Jews.

After a terrorist attempted an attack earlier this year against a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan — Nessel’s hometown — El-Sayed linked the attack to the conflict in Lebanon and said, “Hurt people hurt people.”

“A lot of us perceived that as sort of making excuses for someone that sought to murder over 100 pre-K schoolchildren and that’s the kind of mentality that bothers me a lot,” Nessel tells The Atlantic’s David Frum.

It’s not making excuses, it’s that the Islamists like El-Sayed hate Jews.

Nessel tells Frum that Jews in Michigan are torn in El-Sayed’s race against Republican Mike Rogers, which could determine control of the Senate.

“We absolutely don’t want Mike Rogers to win. We absolutely want a Democratic majority in the Senate,” she says. “But is Abdul going to spend six years railing against Israel irrespective of who the government is there?”

Well, yes, but, he’s also going to spend 6 years denigrating Jews and pushing an Islamic radical agenda.
