Less than three weeks from the election, Kamala Harris is campaigning in Michigan. Will she lose votes over the Biden administration's support for Israel's war on Gaza and expanding war on Lebanon? Meanwhile, Republican candidate Donald Trump has opened a new campaign office in the swing state. "It feels like Vice President Harris is not doing what it takes to be both humane and compassionate and sensitive to the political realities in Michigan that are necessary to engage with in order to beat Donald Trump," says Abbas Alawieh, co-founder of the "uncommitted" movement to change U.S. policy toward Israel and Gaza. "What are we even talking about as Democrats if we speak so much to the value of human life, of the dignity of workers, when our party's official policy is to send more and more weapons to a fascist government that is on a killing spree?"
