Arab-Americans on social media have been denouncing black Americans for supporting Kamala Harris. Apparently those Arab-Americans don’t like Kamala because she is not sufficiently pro-Hamas. And they believe that black Americans are not entitled to exercise agency, but must follow the diktat of the superior Arabs. In response, black Americans have brought up that little matter of the Arab enslavement of black Africans that claimed many more victims than the Atlantic slave trade. These black Americans are discovering what any black African could tell them: the Arabs are the worst anti-black racists in the world. More on this Arab-Black war of words can be found here: “‘Token Ethnic President’: Pro-Hamas Crowd Launches Racist Verbal Assault on Black Americans Over Harris Support,” by Dion J. Pierre, Algemeiner, August 16, 2024:
Anti-Zionist activists recently launched a barrage of racist attacks against African Americans on social media, triggering an exchange of insults as well as arguments over the Arab world’s role in enslaving Black Africans.
“Black people also wear a uniform and get on a plane and come to our countries and kill us!” one influencer said in a compilation of TikTok posts shared by pro-Israel activist Hen Mazzig. “You vote the same f—king melanated [sic] f—king people to government that sign papers to kill us. I don’t want to hear it anymore!”
Those “black people” who “wear a uniform” refers primarily no doubt, to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, who is black, and who has visited our ally Israel to signal American support in its war in Gaza. However, I don’t recall him “signing papers to kill” Palestinians.
“Keep Palestinians names out of your f—king mouths when you’re trying to defend your decision for voting for Kamala,” another said, referring to Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, who is Black.
My, how coarse and dismissive these Arab-Americans can be, how dripping with contempt for black Americans who choose to support Kamala Harris.
TikTok user “Dan1ahan” charged that Black Americans “switched up 180 on Palestinians and people who are Palestinian activists the second we have a Black woman running for office,” describing the alleged betrayal as “disgusting.” Touching on the upcoming US presidential election, one Arab woman said all Black people want is a “token ethnic president” in office.
Black TikTok influencers descended on the platform in droves to denounce the comments, with several announcing that they intended not only to remove Gaza-related content from their profiles but also to cease engaging in anti-Zionist activity entirely. The conversation escalated in subsequent posts, touching on the continuance of Black slavery in the Arab world and what a young woman called “voracious racism” against African Americans….
The unpleasant truth comes out: slavery was abolished very late in Arab countries. It was officially abolished in Saudi Arabia and Yemen in 1962, in Oman in 1970, and in Mauritania in 1981, and only under terrific Western pressure. There was never internal pressure to outlaw slavery in Muslim lands because Muhammad himself, the Perfect Man and Model of Conduct, bought, sold, and traded slaves. That is why there never was a Muslim William Wilberforce. What’s more, black Africans are still enslaved today by Arabs in Mauritania (over 870,000), Mali (200,000) , and Niger (130,000). Black Africans who have in the last few years gone to Libya, hoping to make it to Europe by boat, when they are unable to pay the smugglers, have found themselves being sold bat auction in nine Libyan cities. The largest slave auction is in Tripoli.
“Zionist imperial puppet,” “imperial and blackface,” and “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” were among the chants yelled by members of the Student Coalition for Palestine (GWSCP) outside the building — a clamoring which could be heard throughout the Elliot School. Thomas-Greenfield was at GWU to speak at an event held to encourage Black youth to pursue careers in foreign affairs. GWSCP protested her appearance because she had vetoed multiple UN Security Council resolutions calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, where Israel has been waging a military campaign against Hamas following the terrorist group’s Oct. 7 massacre of Israeli civilians.
In a pamphlet distributed to everyone who showed up to the event, the students accused Greenfield of being a “puppet,” alluding to the fact that she is a Black woman holding a distinguished presidential appointment. GWSCP seemed to suggest that the color of Greenfield’s skin excluded the possibility that she is an agent of her own destiny.
“For as long as we have been here, we have resisted these systems of oppression, but the United States of Amerikkka [sic] has always used Black bodies as puppets to carry out repression and dissent,” the pamphlet said. It also compared Greenfield to Black enslaved persons who had been assigned, against their will, to work as overseers of other enslaved persons on cotton plantations….
These Arab-Americans drip contempt of Linda Greenfield, calling her a “puppet”— presumably of the white establishment or perhaps, they are thinking, of the “Zionists” who they insist call the shots in Washington.
Why do these Arab-Americans and their supporters harass this black woman, screaming at her to resign, clapping in her face to intimidate her? Could they not have treated her with respect? What was her offense? She had invited the American ambassador to the UN to speak.
That same month, at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, anti-Zionists occupying an administrative building verbally abused a Black officer, whom they accused of betraying his racial identity. “Shame on you!” they shouted at him. Someone else said, “You are Black in America, and you’re not standing with the marginalized people of the world. What does that make you?”
How was that black officer at Vanderbilt “betraying his racial identity”? By not complying with what Arab-Americans wanted, which was for him to stand aside and let them continue to occupy an administrative building. Blacks must always do what Arab-Americans demand.
This war on social media between black Americans and the Arab-Americans who denounce blacks for supporting Kamala Harris has just begun. It can only widen and deepen, as more people on both sides join in the furious exchanges.Here’s hoping that black Americans, exposed to the contempt for them expressed by Arab-Americans, will end their support for the Palestinians and stick to their own issues. They might even reconsider the more than a century of unwavering Jewish support for civil rights, and renew those old alliances.

Any one of any color or ethnicity who supports hyena harris is either a fool or evil; and maybe both.
Mike says
Or a lover of laughing hyenas
somehistory says
That category probably is very limited in numbers.
Mike says
Watch the video “The dark hidden slave history Arabs want to cover up” by Black Journals.
It is one of the most sickening things you will watch, but it needs to be watched nonetheless, whether you’re Black or not.

Black Americans (nor any other Americans) should not support Kamala, but not for the reasons that the muslims don’t want them to. Black American’s shouldn’t support Kamala for a handful of reasons:
➤ Identity politics is a bad criteria by which to vote. Even if it wasn’t, Don Lemon was right: Kamala is not an African-American. Her parents were first generation Americans from Jamaica and India, and she grew up in Montreal
➤ She has no political philosophy of her own, but a vector for policies that her contributors can use to execute. As San Francisco DA, she ignored hard crime and went after soft crime, like criminalizing parents for truancy, or prosecuting people who turned out to be innocent. As AG of California, she promoted Prop 47, branding it the “Safe neighborhoods & schools Act”, which allowed shoplifters to steal $950 worth of merchandise from any store, and provoking all those “flash mobs”. As senator, she was to the left of Bernie, and as VP, her key successes were opening the border fully, and provoking Russia into invading Ukraine by urging the latter to join NATO
➤ As presidential candidate, she has no published political positions on her website. One would expect her to put her political philosophy, or her plans there, so that one could assess whether she’s one’s candidate. Instead, her website is all about vibes and contributions
➤ Her record as VP of this administration. If you liked Biden’s administration, that’s the only reason to vote for her
➤ Her character. She has an inflated opinion of herself, treats people who work for her horribly, doesn’t do the work of preparing for any meeting, which is a part of why she’s such a disaster. Since she got her start in politics as Willie Brown’s concubine, it shouldn’t be surprising that she’s not one to work to get to where she wants to go
The muslims who hate what she is doing are not gonna vote for Trump. They’ll either break for Cornel West or Jill Stein (in Michigan, West has been disqualified, so Stein is their only option, even though she’s Jewish).
In the meantime, both Blacks & Jews should vote for Trump. Or RFK Jr, if they can’t bring themselves to vote Republican (although there has been some rumors that he may drop out in favor of Trump)
SKA says
Kamala Harris is neither generically or culturally an “African American women.” Rather she is a Brahmin Indian descent and is therefore Indo-European.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
If you have to drill down further on her Indian side, she’s a Dravidian by descent – not quite Indo-European.
Point is that she is “Black”, if one is just talking skin color. But like Don Lemon pointed out, she’s not “African-American” i.e. she’s not descended from African slaves who were brought to the US. Which is the historical identity of the population that’s identified as “Black” in the US. In fact, from her father’s side, her ancestors were indeed slave owners, rather than slaves
CalvinsLutheran says
So many beat down BLACK DHIMMIS in this entire world unwittingly suck up behind (in the case of Dubai suck the behinds of Arabs) that the Arabs only see us as naturally inferior to them, NEVERTHELESS the Arabs have shown that that perverted self-negation that they’ve been accustomed to seeing in Northeast Africa in favor of them is NOT so pervasive as it may appear. All throughout the Diaspora their contempt for the groveling ultra-stupid “abeed” they see in Northeast Africa is quite reciprocal. The literature and rarified culture of the Black diaspora would only be disregarded by the most determinedly ignorant mindset on the entire planet ?. Blacks have advocated unwittingly for equal rights for people of color in a fashion that Arabs now are attempting to co-opt for themselves in a travesty of normal gratitude. A few black people will continue to be potty mouths in that most depraved self-debasement that subhuman creatures exhibit in Dubai but Arabs are most surely not showing anything worthy of respect from THINKING ANALYTICAL Black people ANYWHERE ON EARTH. Israel has no colonies anywhere in Africa notwithstanding some Jewish participation in proxy money-making in African resources, and indeed Jewish lives have been lost in defense of Black Civil Rights. No such equivalent exists in Arab history EVER. The sleepy low IQ negro will NOT continue to exist on this planet thanks to irrefutable Arab contempt for the dumb negro who the Arabs have NEVER been able to RESPECT as brothers EVEN IN ISLAM. Bilal the “black crow” was chased out of Arabia immediately after Muhammad died BTW.
Luchtpint says
Harris’ mother was a Hindu and her father was black. Two ‘justified’ reasons for any muslim Arab to discriminate against her. No surprise to me.
OLD GUY says
VOTE for the best person to handle the position for the American people not just based on political party.
memi says
Islamofascists should have no say on American politics and issues affecting black Americans about which they know nothing!
Harris’ mother was a Hindu who converted to Christianity and a Cancer researcher for the Jewish Hospital in Montreal where Kamala spent her High School days! That was no regressive Islamisized Sharia Law environment and doubt that she’d be 100 Hamas terrorist supperter.
She was a hardliner Prosecutor–and you can ask Tulsi Gabbard on that!
The surprising thing for American politics is that there are only TWO political parties all these years, often just being ventriloquists for same interests with sporadic variations.
Kamala’s husband is Jewish but, unfrotunately, his law firm defended islamist Qatar’s Al-Jazeera’s antiSemitic “news”. We don’t know to what extent she’ll act alone on foreign policy without following “guidelines” as all US. presidents do. I am sure, however, that a large Israeli lobby, together with Armenian, Greek and Kurdish ones, will be influential in decision-making and won’t allow the destruction of Israel under her watch!
Nabil Bissada says
They are not Arab Americans they are a Muslims. Because 99% of the Christians in the Middle East they do not consider themselves as Arabs.
What is the reason they are asking black Americans to support Miss Kamala.?
She is not like President Obama with his knowledge and charisma, or like Miss Michelle Obama with her charisma and knowledge.
Miss Kamala how she can represent USA with the leaders of the world, China, Russia, North Korea, Nato, Muslims terrorists, or Miss Hilary Clinton with her knowledge and charisma, etc.
I think if Miss Kamala wins the election, her and the vice president, will assign Muslim as a secretary for any position according to their relations with the Muslims organization in USA.
This will be the beginning of the end of USA as a superpower.
