Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed is cratering in popularity among Jewish Michiganders, so he posted a sugary message for Sukkot, the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles. That doesn’t make up for his numerous terrorist ties and support for the genocide of Israelis.
In fact, it’s frankly insulting that El-Sayed would post about Sukkot given his track record. He despises Jews so much that instead of repudiating his terrorist family members and Hasan Piker, and instead of apologizing abjectly for the numerous statements and actions by him fueling anti-Israel violence and hatred, he is just putting up a milquetoast Sukkot X post.
Chag Sameach to all those celebrating Sukkot in Michigan and around the world! https://t.co/92AEvfYg0B

First of all, to be anti-Zionist is to be antisemitic. Since Israel is the only democratic country in the Middle East with religious freedom and an international aid network, the only reason to oppose Israel is because you think Jews shouldn’t own the land. This is also an anti-Biblical view, since God promised Israel to the Jews as a “perpetual possession” in Genesis 17:8. Not that El-Sayed would care about the Bible.

El-Sayed hates Israel not because Muslim Arabs have any right to the land, but because Muslims colonized Israel away from Jews and Christians, rewrote Bible stories to justify their actions, built a sacrilegious mosque on the Temple Mount, and generally tried to steal the holiest city of Judeo-Christianity from its rightful owners. Muslims have never gotten over losing custody of Israel in the modern era, and no amount of land grants — from Gaza to Bethlehem to Jordan — will appease them.

El-Sayed, Piker, and their fellow Muslims all agree on the colonization project, both for Israel and for America.

When a Persian student whose family suffered persecution in Iran asked El-Sayed at a recent townhall to repudiate the murderous mullahs who massacred Americans, Persians, and Israelis this year, El-Sayed refused. El-Sayed urged the Muslim Brotherhood to “purge” opponents in Egypt back in 2012, and it has benefitted him since; indeed, donors to his campaign have Muslim Brotherhood ties.
Speaking of donors, Hamas front group CAIR — including El-Sayed’s father-in-law — has been very financially and verbally supportive of El-Sayed. El-Sayed’s mother also worked for an Al-Qaeda front group that helped Osama bin Laden.
El-Sayed’s Sukkot post is a pathetic attempt to hide his radical and genocidal ideology.
