Is condemning an attempted Islamic terrorist attack against Jewish preschoolers in Michigan really that difficult?
Abdul El-Sayed, the former director of the Department of Health, Human, and Veterans Services in Wayne County, is among the Democrats running for U.S. by a who’s-who of progressive Democrats: Sen. Bernie Sanders , Rep.
Ro Khanna , Rep. Rashida Tlaib , and Rep. Pramila Jayapal . In other words, he is not some random nobody Democrat.That makes it all the more galling that El-Sayed apparently had such a difficult time condemning the attempted terrorist attack against a synagogue in his state. An Islamic terrorist with brothers in, filled with explosives and guns, into the “largest Reform synagogue” in the country in West Bloomfield Township. He was killed in a shootout with security before he could storm the synagogue, which had preschool classes in session. in an internal campaign call that issuing a condemnation of the attack was a “risk.” Yes, condemning an attempted terrorist attack against a Jewish preschool is considered a “risk” by someone who is within striking distance of the U.S. Senate. If that isn’t damning enough, El-Sayed’s team said in a statement that it was “important” to put out a “nuanced statement” to “give voice to the complexities that so many Michiganders are trying to navigate.” Again, we are talking about an Islamic terrorist trying to massacre Jewish civilians. His goal was to gun down preschoolers in their own classroom. Ah, but the “complexities.”El-Sayed’s statement was, of course, ridiculous. He turned it into a condemnation of missile strikes against Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon, saying, “We can and must condemn the attack on Temple Israel, and we can and must condemn the violence 6,000 miles away.” In the view of El-Sayed and his campaign, killing Hezbollah terrorists and attempting to kill Jewish American preschoolers can be grouped together as similar atrocities to be condemned., and thus it becomes a “risk” to condemn something as obviously heinous as the attempted act of terrorism in West Bloomfield. Democrats cannot even issue a condemnation of antisemitic Islamic terrorism without hemming and hawing and hedging, because the party has lost all moral clarity in pursuit of the votes of terrorist sympathizing activists.
