DEARBORN, Feb 22: Its common to hear residents chatting in Arabic just as often as English in this Detroit suburbs stores or mosques, those buildings themselves often sporting bilingual signage out front.

But no matter the language, residents in this Arab American and Muslim stronghold in the Midwestern state of Michigan are convinced President Joe Biden, as he steadfastly stands by Israel in its war in Gaza, is not listening to them.

"Vote for Palestine. No Biden," political organizer Samraa Luqman says in English, passing out fliers outside a mosque after prayers.

"Don vote for Biden," the activist with Yemeni origins adds in Arabic.

"Of course," respond many passersby. —AFP
