After Trump’s announcement about taking over Gaza and expelling all the people living there, they now want to be called ‘Arab Americans for Peace’.
A group that played a key role in Donald Trump’s voter outreach to the Arab American community alongside his allies is rebranding itself after the president said that the U.S. would “take over” the Gaza Strip.
Bishara Bahbah, chairman of the group formerly known as Arab Americans for Trump, said during a phone interview with The Associated Press on Wednesday that the group would now be called Arab Americans for Peace.
The name change came after Trump held a Tuesday press conference alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House and proposed the U.S. take “ownership” in redeveloping the area into “the Riviera of the Middle East.”
“The talk about what the president wants to do with Gaza, obviously we’re completely opposed to the idea of the transfer of Palestinians from anywhere in Historic Palestine,” Bahbah said. “And so we did not want to be behind the curve in terms of pushing for peace, because that has been our objective from the very beginning.”
Don’t say that you weren’t warned. You may have been for Trump but he was never for you.
Folks who voted for Trump need to own it. Don’t give me “I didn’t know he’d do that.” Why didn’t you know it? It was all out there in public, even Jared Kushner’s desire to build a casino on Gaza’s Mediterranean coast.
The Arab (forrmer) Trump Chumps of Dearborn and vicinity have proved one thing by voting and emoting for the Republicans last year based on their immediate feelings rather than on evidence and reason:
They have become fully Americanized!
Face. Leopards.
Yeah, who could have predicted that the guy who moved the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem would support the Zionist position?
I saw elsewhere that these numpties still think Trump is in favour of a just peace in the Middle East.
Was “stupid idiots” already taken ?
@KG
But thats true. Trump does want a gaza strip with beach front properties and golf courses and Trump towers and money pouring everywhere (just with white people -- im guessing after the Palestinians are out , the Israelis will be next)
Buyer’s remorse ?
