Great. The people united will never be defeated.
Glad to see this response; it is one cause and the rallying around Ms Sasour has been good to see as well. The outrage created by Biden’s team’s censorial comments elicited this:

Sanaa Saeed Twitter: Nothing repairs relationships and bridges divides like smearing a public Muslim Palestinian woman as anti-Semitic and then privately giving an “apology”. Word to the wise: a private apology for a public wrong isn’t an apology.
Mr Starmer has no concern for black lives nor for any other lives! I sometimes wonder what are Mr Starmer`s concerns.
British Labour Parties concerns are not Mr Starmers. Why is he Labour leader? How many voted for Mr Starmer without having any idea of what his policies were? I am so glad that I did not vote for him. But to continue to support him is an insult to democracy.
If Biden wants to win and see off Trump, and all of us want that to happen, then he must distance himself from the Far Left which is poison in any US election campaign. Bernie would have needed to do the same and at some point disavow Sarsour and overall he would have been a better candidate than Biden. Take your pick: Trump or centre-left Biden-Dems. Dems will ruin their chances if they embrace the Far Left.
