To Mend Fences in Michigan, El-Sayed Should Stop Talking About Israel
['Bill Scher', 'More Bill Scher']
Washington Monthly
No mention was made about Hamas which openly opposes a Jewish state.
As a wedge issue, Israel cleaved the Democratic electorate, leaving El-Sayed with the slightly larger chunk.
To win a general election in Michigan, El-Sayed likely will need to broaden his appeal beyond his existing base.
And then I will support whatever the outcome is that a free Palestinian people and a free Jewish Israeli people decide is the right outcome.
Often El-Sayed flimsily connects the issue of Israel to domestic concerns, suggesting military aid to Israel comes at the expense of funding for American health care and education.
