In key US swing-state Michigan, Democratic voters of Arab and Middle Eastern heritage say Kamala Harris is going to have to win them back, after they were alienated by President Joe Biden's unwavering support for Israel's military offensive in Gaza. "We are in listening mode right now," says Osama Siblani, publisher of The Arab American News. But others, like business lawyer Soujoud Hamade, remain skeptical. Accepting the Democratic presidential nomination at the party’s convention on, Harris pledged to get a Gaza ceasefire “done” and ensure Palestinians “realize their right to “dignity, security, freedom and self- determination.” But there was outrage among pro-Palestinian delegates that their request for a speaker spot at the convention was rejected. The group Muslim Women for Harris-Walz said the decision sent a “terrible message” and announced it was disbanding and withdrawing its support from the campaign.
