American Muslim community to boycott White House Iftar dinner against the Gaza policy
American Muslim leaders have decided to boycott the traditional Iftar dinner at the White House today against Joe Biden’s policies on the Gaza war.
American Muslim organizations have announced an iftar ceremony outside the White House as a protest against the American policy on the Gaza war.
The protest breakfast outside the White House will include the Islamic Circle of North America (ACNA) and American Muslims for Palestine (AMP).
Islamic organizations in the US are protesting against the Israeli war in Gaza and against the US government’s lack of support for Israel. They demand that the Biden administration insist on an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza.
Note that the annual White House Iftar is held at the end of Ramadan. The Iftar reception at the White House is being held today.
High officials of the US administration and ambassadors of Muslim-majority countries are expected to attend the iftar.
