Abraham embraced concrete Sufi practices within his own pietist circle and openly praised his Muslim counterparts, at times holding them up as a model for his own community.

A lot of people in the immediate aftermath of that press conference kept trying to tell me that Biden was talking about the Gaza Health Ministry. Putting aside that the GHM has now been proven repeatedly to have been correct, the then-president himself *did not say that*. He said *Palestinians*.

And also that the ministry toll only includes those killed in attacks (not starvation/injuries/deprivation) + is widely seen as an undercount.

h/t @diplomatofnight.com for noting Biden has never publicly apologized for the comments. He did so privately to Muslim American leaders.

The day of Biden's remarks, I obtained State Dept cables showing the US gov repeatedly cited Gaza ministry figures sans caveats:

Biden Cast Doubt On Gaza’s Death Statistics — But They're Cited Internally
A HuffPost review of nearly 20 State Department updates on the Israel-Hamas war found repeated references to the Gaza Health Ministry with few caveats about its accuracy.

President Biden twice said he had "no confidence" in the numbers from Palestinians about deaths in Gaza — a position that helped justify his policy of enabling Israeli attacks there.

Today, the IDF said it accepts the Gaza ministry's numbers. I've asked Biden's spox if he has regrets. Stay tuned.

Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. That is not a fringe claim but the settled judgment of the international human rights community.

What Gavin Newsom is rejecting here is an established fact, in the same category as Trump’s refusal to accept the 2020 election results.
Ben Shapiro: "Israel did not commit a genocide in Gaza"
Gavin Newsom: "I agree with you."

Does it inspire any introspection on the part of the Democratic foreign policy establishment that backing Israel to the hilt no matter what it did at any time undermined America's global position and image while also not getting any credit from Israel itself

Medical sources in Gaza say at least three Palestinians have been killed & many wounded throughout the day in Israeli attacks on Sunday.

The silence by Western MSM & leaders sickens me to the core, as they trot along with Trump, thanking him for his ME progress & Board of Peace efforts.

I really hope that in this moment, where it's becoming evident to Americans how the media normalizes murder, how every victim is retroactively turned into a "terrorist", that they look at how Palestinians, Black Americans, Latinx, etc. were treated and finally see the injustices for what they are.
remember that when Israel bombed the first hospital in Gaza, they dissimulated, lied, and argued, expending tremendous resources to "complicate" the "narrative." a month later, it was the new normal

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.

ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.

This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

Francesca Albanese explains that Israel demolishing UNRWA buildings in occupied East Jerusalem is just the latest in a series of attacks going back decades, and is part of wider efforts by Israel to erase the Palestinian presence from what remains of historical Palestine.

Politicians & some media outlets have latched onto a narrative that recent immigrants, especially undocumented, are causing spikes in crime.

Research does not support the view. In fact, immigrants might have less law enforcement contact compared to native-born Americans.

Data does not support claims that the United States is experiencing a surge in crime caused by immigrants.
