Mahdi Hassan & Sami Hamdi.
Comparing voting for the lesser of two evils to advising a victim of domestic abuse to remain with an abusive partner due to the dangers of the streets is a stark analogy.
My Perspective and Two Cents on the Recent Mehdi Hasan’s (MH) Video Endorsing Kamala Harris.
Greetings from Lehigh Valley, just returned from Dallas, Texas, a state famed for its cowboys and rodeos. I'm excited and gearing up for my trip to Mombasa in a few days, and I will also be visiting my sister-in-law's family, who sadly passed away yesterday in Mombasa.
Muslims have been plagued by munafiqs ever since the advent of Islam. The hired pens are out again spewing their poison and causing disunity with the Muslim Ummah. This is neither the first time nor will it be the last.
The ‘dual loyalist,’ be a scholar, journalist, or head of Islamic organizations are much more sinister, menacing, and dangerous people living among Muslims and claiming to be Muslim, their loyalty is only to themselves and Zionist lobby.
The apparent political cowardice of certain journalists, scholars, leaders, and their institutions prioritizes Zionist obedience, and liberal conformity over justice and legitimate resistance movement.
This is often accompanied by the financial largesse ($) of their patrons if opt to ignore the genocide and promote the party and their leaders who have blood on their hand.
From East to West, scholars and journalist may have overlooked the unity that binds Muslims worldwide. It raises the question as to why Mahdi Hasaan would engage in a dispute with Sami Hamdi.
Br. Jalal and Sami never ever mentioned or uttered MH’s name. Extremely disappointed and poor journalism by MH. He appease his financiers, and the warmongering neo-conservatives.
Journalists, Mahdi Hassan and entities like Emgage are funded by Zionist lobbyists and creating divisions within the Muslim Ummah.
Furthermore, there exist "scholars for dollars" whose organizations are rewarded to suppress and inhibit conversations about oppression and resistance freedom fighters during pulpit addresses or Jumaah sermons (Khutbah).
One may search their website for terms like "Zionist" or "Gaza" and find nothing, not a single condemnation statement. Yet, there are numerous fabulous and excellent condemnation statements on their website regarding church, synagogue, and school shootings. Why is this the case?
Muhammad Jalal Respond to Mahdi on Twitter.
‘Trump is worse.’ If tomorrow, Harris allowed the Israelis to bomb Madinah, the claim would be that Trump would have bombed Makkah, so we should still vote for Harris. There comes a time when we say, enough is enough of this two-party nightmare…we have it within our ability to punish the proponents of genocide of this administration. And we have it in our ability to coin an alternative story for the fallen in Gaza. But to do what Muslims have always done, repeatedly, and vote for a party that consistently disappoints is no more than doing the same thing and expecting a different result.
Below is a letter I posted on social media and personally forwarded to Br. Mehdi Hasan on April 26, 2020, over four years ago.

My Two Cents & My Turn:
The interview on Aljazeera’s Upfront by Mehdi Hassan (MH) with Prof. Syed Mohammad Marandi was utterly disappointing and a pathetic piece of journalism. Of course, such interviews Pease’s his paymasters, war mongering Neo-cons and Zionist.

MH, why not inquire with the Biden official about the choice not to allocate funds for hurricane victims, the homeless, healthcare, and education instead spending on the military-industrial-complex and giving trillion to Zionist Israel. Notably, he has not challenged any personalities from Biden and Harris’s staffÂ
Mehdi Hassan (MH) 's approach with the professor Marandi
was very rude. MH is a propagandist and a despicable mouthpiece for Aljazeera. It is a shame that he has become a keynote speaker at many of the Shia conferences. It is a sad indictment of our intellectual bankruptcy.
Professor Marandi born in Dayton; Ohio is a war hero of the Iraq war. He was calm, rational and cogent in the entire interview.
Professor Marandi is a courageous and the right person to take on MH who promotes division by demonizing the Islamic Iran which has survived sanctions, wars and assassinations for forty-eight years.
MH has lost credibility by blaming Iran for all the US inadequacies and failures in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan.
He is part of this aggressive news media system only for his benefit. He is an opportunist, uses false binaries and is disingenuous.
MH Hassan demonizes Iran for supporting the proxy wars, however MH has never questioned the US, Saudi and Qatar of their proxy wars around the globe.
The case and point, he has never questioned John Bolton (among several others) who advocates dropping nuclear bombs on Iran.
He has never even bothered to confront the US and the House of Saud for the destruction caused by illegitimate wars in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Yemen.
MH at times is nauseating and is living in a delusional world where apparently US and the House Saud does no wrong and all the failures of US are the faults of Iran.
Without Iran the black flags (ISIS) and Wahhabism would be all over the Middle East and the world. What a joke!
The USA has a 640-Billion-dollar defense budget and yet cannot fight the invisible enemy (Non-living).
It does not matter how MH moves his fast tongue and does his laughable interviews. He is the mouthpiece of Al Jazeera and Intercept owned by anti-Iran billionaire Pier Omidyar.
Conclusion:
Rather than seeking an apology from Mehdi Hasan, consider voting for the Green Party. Should the Green Party secure over ten percent of the vote, it would qualify for federal, state funding, and secure a spot on the ballot in all fifty states for subsequent elections, a milestone currently obstructed by the Democratic and Republican parties. If realized, this could stand as a monumental legacy of American Muslims in disrupting the two-party system. What a remarkable achievement that would be!
