❗️Palestinian-American writer from Gaza launches 2028 Senate primary challenge against pro-Israel Senator John Fetterman Gaza-born writer and businessman Ahmed Moor launched a 2028 Democratic primary campaign today against Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman, mounting an outsider bid focused on cutting US military aid to Israel and imposing South Africa-style anti-apartheid sanctions against Tel Aviv. In an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer, the 42-year-old West Philadelphia resident highlighted the stark contrast between his platform and Fetterman's unwavering backing of the Israeli military. Moor, who lived in Rafah as a child before his family relocated to the US, stated that American taxpayers are directly implicated in financing Israeli aggression. "We need to do away with the idea that Israel is a place where Jews have superior rights relative to Palestinians," Moor stated. "As Americans, we’re deeply implicated in Israeli apartheid. We fund it. We sustain it. We protect it." Moor proposed enacting sanctions modeled on the 1986 Comprehensive Anti-Apartheid Act used against South Africa, calling for a total ban on US loans, investments, and military aid until equal rights are established across historic Palestine.
