Muslim Arab Americans are threatening not to vote for Biden if he does not stop the Israel-Hamas war. We all know it isn't up to Biden and that 80% of America supports Israel, but the protesters are vocal, and their presence can't be ignored.

Muslim Arab Americans are threatening not to vote for Biden if he does not stop the Israel-Hamas war. We all know it isn't up to Biden and that 80% of America supports Israel, but the protesters are vocal, and their presence can't be ignored.
They have always been in the background, though support for terrorism is recent. Previously, those Muslim-Americans were placated by donations to UNRWA and others claiming to help the plight of refugees. Israel complained for years that Hamas heavily infiltrated this group, but the complaint was ignored because if it weren't, there would be complaints for that, too. Well, now the world knows.
After most wars or even rebellions, there is usually a mass movement of people. We can call them refugees until they are resettled, and then they blend into the fabric of wherever they have landed. Except for Palestinians, whose numbers inside Israel have quadrupled since the founding of Israel. and are still considered "refugees." If you are a third-generation refugee, you aren't a refugee. It is time to stop asking for handouts and earn your keep.
Israel offers first-class citizenship to everyone who lives there, but there is a caveat. You would be expected to live in peace and obey the same laws as everyone else. There are plenty of Christians who live in Israel, as well as Druze and Bedouin Muslims who don't have a problem calling Israel "home." They have accepted the reality that their life is better there than it would be anywhere else. They have job and education opportunities. The funds the US has been sending to UNRWA would be better spent by funding rehabilitation for Hamas.
As long as you offer to give money, people will take it. That has always been true and always will be. But everyone wants something back when they give, even if it is only an acknowledgment. Usually, Americans just want to know their money is going to help somebody for the better. Now we know the money was misspent, and actually funded war. That can't be okay.
