TENNESSEE'S ARAB AMERICAN COMMUNITY REACHES OUT TO TRUMP AS BIDEN-HARRISadministration WIGGLES ON ISRAEL-PALISTINE ISSUE BY KHAIDA KHAN

Tens of thousands of votes from the typically Democratic-strongholds in Michigan's Dearborn, a city where nearly half the residents are Arab American, have shifted to Republican candidate Donald Trump, who was re-elected as president. This stunning reversal has brought home a significant swing vote that may just prove pivotal in shaping a nation grappling with the complexities surrounding Israel and Palestine.

Former longtime Democrat and member of the Michigan State Democratic Committee, Suehaila Amen has broken ranks over her preference for a candidate other than those running for office: President Biden's running mate. Vice president Kamala Harris lost in two Detroit-area cities known to have large Arab American populations by over 2500 votes, as nearly 18,000 voters cast their ballots for Trump.

When questioned about the reasons behind this sudden shift, Amen stated that there were only really two options presented during campaigning - her choice was neither. Furthermore, she expressed that many citizens within her community view the actions conducted under Joe Biden's presidency regarding Israel in Gaza to be "greatly unwarranted".

This startling change was no surprise for local politicians, who described a deteriorating relationship with the administration and even warned Democrats months ago of this possible collapse.

Former president George W Bush last held onto this state four years prior but now it is returning under Trump - this marked shift indicates an immense concern that might bring long-term repercussions on how the nation approaches these highly conflicting issues involving Israel, Gaza, Palestine, and so forth.
