Report Card Mixed on Biden Administration’s Commitment to Balanced Approach towards Arabs at Home and Abroad
Arab America reported optimistically about November 2020’s Biden-Harris victory. We believed that Arabs, especially Palestinians, and Muslims worldwide would have something positive to look forward to. Contributing writer John Mason renders a ‘B+’ grade for the Biden Administration’s support of Arab Americans and non-Arab Muslim-Americans. However, only a ‘D’ grade is rendered for Biden’s handling of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Realpolitik and Palestinian disillusionment with Biden’s approach portend continued faltering progress in achieving freedom and justice for Palestinians.
